What Is a Hollywood Wax?
A Hollywood wax is another name for a completely bare Brazilian wax — it removes every last hair from the entire bikini area, including the front, sides, labia, and back between the buttocks. Unlike a standard Brazilian (where some clients keep a small strip or triangle), a Hollywood wax means everything goes.
In Depth
The term "Hollywood wax" originated in the beauty industry as a way to describe the most thorough level of bikini hair removal. In practice, it is identical to what we call a Bare Bikini or Full Brazilian at Pia Esthetics Day Spa — total removal with nothing left behind.
Hollywood wax vs. other bikini wax types:
- Regular Bikini: Cleans up the sides and top of the bikini line only
- French Bikini: Removes more from the front and sides, goes slightly inward
- Brazilian: Removes front, sides, labia, and back — with the option to keep a small strip or shape on the front
- Hollywood: The same as a Brazilian, but specifically means no hair is left at all — completely bare everywhere
The terminology varies between salons and regions, which can be confusing. If you are ever unsure, simply tell your esthetician exactly what result you want. We will never judge your preference — our job is to deliver exactly what you are looking for.
