Half leg: knee to ankle, or knee to thigh

The half leg covers both legs from the knee to the ankle, which is what shows most in a skirt, shorts or a dress. If you prefer, it can be the upper half, knee to thigh. The knee is included.

It is one of the quickest and most tolerable waxing services: the slot is 30 minutes and, with wax, the skin stays smooth for three to four weeks. If you want everything from ankle to groin, the full leg takes 45 minutes.

Wax or machine: which to choose?

Hot Wax

Warm wax adheres precisely to the hair, removing it from the root for long-lasting results of 3–4 weeks. Ideal for most skin types and areas.

Electric Machine

Gentler approach for sensitive skin and delicate areas. The machine pulls hair efficiently with minimal irritation — perfect for frequent treatments.

Does half leg waxing hurt?

  • One of the easiest areas

    The calf and shin have firm skin and the hair comes out easily. It is a good place to start if you have never waxed.

  • Knee and ankle, with care

    These are the parts where the skin moves most. We work them with the leg bent or straight to keep the skin taut.

  • Stop shaving beforehand

    With two or three weeks of growth the wax takes the hair in a single pass and the skin gets less irritated.

  • Less hair over time

    With regular sessions the hair comes back finer and sparser, and you can forget about the razor.

What happens in your half leg session

It takes 30 minutes in a private cabin.

  1. 01

    Cleanse

    We cleanse the skin to remove creams and sweat, and check for cuts or irritation.

    Front

    Top of the foot, ankle, shin and knee, in strips that follow the direction of the hair.

  3. 03

    Back

    You turn over and we continue with the calf and the back of the knee.

  4. 04

    Tidy-up and soothe

    We tweeze stray hairs and apply a soothing product.

Can I get waxed today?

Good time to come if

  • You wear skirts, shorts or dresses and only need knee down
  • It is your first time waxing
  • You want something quick before an event
  • Your hair is between 5 mm and 1 cm long

Better wait or tell us first if

  • You have prominent varicose veins on the calf (ask first; the machine may be an option)
  • You have a sunburn, cuts or grazes
  • You use retinoids or isotretinoin
  • You have diabetes or poor circulation (tell us beforehand)

If you also want the thigh, book the full leg: it works out better than adding two half legs.

Before and after care

Before your appointment

  • Stop shaving two or three weeks before
  • Exfoliate gently two days before
  • Do not apply cream or oil on the day of your appointment
  • Wear a skirt, shorts or wide trousers

The first 24–48 hours

  • Avoid tight trousers that day
  • No intense exercise, pool or sauna for 24 hours
  • Keep the skin out of the sun for 48 hours
  • Moisturise daily and exfoliate twice a week from the third day
