A bikini wax removes hair along the edges where skin meets swimsuit, a French bikini goes a little further in, and a Brazilian removes hair from the front, the labia and between the cheeks. At Wax & Lash, a bikini is $35, a French bikini is $45 and a Brazilian is $65, and most first-timers start with a bikini and go further when they feel ready.
After coming up on 13 years of waxing Denver, this is one of the questions we answer most. Here is exactly what each service includes so you can book the right one. When you are ready for a Brazilian, our Brazilian wax in Denver page has prices, timing and both studios.
What is included in a bikini wax?
A bikini wax removes hair outside the panty line and about one finger width inside it. The labia is untouched, and the line of hair below the navel is included. It takes about ten to fifteen minutes.
What is a French bikini wax?
A French bikini goes further in, leaving roughly a two finger width strip down the front. The labia is still untouched. It is a great middle ground if you want more than a bikini without going fully bare.
What is included in a Brazilian wax?
A Brazilian includes the front, the labia and between the cheeks. You can go completely bare or keep a landing strip or triangle. It takes about fifteen to twenty minutes, and hair from the labia and between the cheeks is always included rather than charged as an add on.
How do the prices compare?
| Service | Price |
|---|---|
| Bikini | $35 |
| Bikini with backside | $40 |
| French bikini | $45 |
| French bikini with backside | $50 |

First-time clients get 50% off their most expensive wax, which makes a first Brazilian $32.50.
Which one should I book?
- Book a bikini if you want a clean swimsuit line and nothing more.
- Book a French bikini if you want most of the hair gone but prefer to keep a strip and skip the labia.
- Book a Brazilian if you want everything gone, or full control over exactly what stays.
Not sure? Book the closest option and tell your esthetician when you arrive. We will sort it out together before anything happens.
Does a Brazilian hurt more than a bikini wax?
A Brazilian usually feels a little more intense because it covers more sensitive skin, although most clients describe it as uncomfortable for a few seconds at a time. Our guide to waxing pain covers how to make it easier.
