With the Asian wedding season in full flow one beauty clinic has set-up hair removal packages just for Asian weddings.

Clare Greaves of Blissful Bodies in Liverpool Road, Burnley said they had seen a huge influx of Asian women coming in before they are getting married.

“There are a lot of machines that don’t remove dark hair effectively. This is why we have invested in special machinery for darker hair.

“Our machines are a mixture of IPL and E light so they are faster. For example, one underarm treatment is only 4 minutes long.

“I had both my underarms done and the results were noticeable.

“It feels like an elastic band flicking on your skin.

It can be a little uncomfortable in certain areas but it doesn’t take long to do. Dark hair needs an average of 6-12 treatments says Clare and people can regrow new hair follicles, but most people will be hair free.

“We charge per session rather than per course so it benefits the client.

“We have a current offer for unlimited hair removal in a year. This costs £1,500, but essentially that would equate to £4,000 worth of treatments. “This includes legs, back, stomach, sideburns and underarms.

“What is appealing about this offer is that you can come in once a month and get the whole body done.”

In the build up to weddings, it is not only hair removal treatment that are popular, but also semi-permanent makeup.

“This is very popular, particularly to enhance eyebrows and to accentuate eyes with eyeliner on the top and bottom.

“There is a treatment that colours the lips in with a lip liner and blush.

“This lasts 18 months, so it’s definitely worthwhile.”

It is not only women that avail of the treatments, as Clare reveals that men are increasingly using the laser treatment to define their beards.

“The laser treatment is great for Asian men who have beards and want them to be groomed and on trend.

“Some men shape their goatees whilst others want to design a stylish beard with the laser.

“It’s an effective way for men to show off their personal style.

“Fat freezing is also popular with both men and women in time for special occasions as well as weddings.

“Lipo freeze is the only non-invasive way to remove fat without surgery.”

Blissful Bodies only opened their doors last year, but have already scheduled 7 more branches to be opened before Christmas in Bolton, Preston and throughout the North West.
