Waxing in Hermosa Beach, CA started about 10 years ago. Sugar waxing in Hermosa Beach was introduced about three years ago. Waxing, know in Asia and Europe for many years as the best process for removing unwanted hair, grew in popular very fast in the Hermosa Beach, Torrance, CA and South Bay area. Hermosa Beach waxing spas started offering a Brazilian wax or a bikini wax and they became an immediate hit with the beach crowd. So that is a little history about the introduction of waxing and sugaring in the Hermosa Beach area.
Here is what Wikipedia says about the history of waxing:
In Middle Eastern societies, removal of the female body hair has been considered proper hygiene, necessitated by local customs, for many centuries Islam, this is known as an act of Fitrah. Evidence of pubic hair removal in ancient India dates back to 4000 to 3000 BC. According to ethnologist F. Fawcett, writing in 1901, he had observed the removal of body hair, including pubic hair about the vulva, as a custom of women from the Hindu Nair caste.
In Western societies, removal of the female body hair has traditionally been considered appropriate when it has been visible. Visible pubic hair continues to be widely disapproved of culturally and considered to be embarrassing, and so is at times removed. With the reduction in the size of swimsuits, especially since the coming into fashion and popularity of the bikini after 1945, the practice of bikini waxing has also come into vogue.
