A BIKINI waxer has revealed the revolting mistakes clients make before their appointments, including a habit that leaves her needing to air out the room.
Rachel Johnson is now urging women who choose to get these treatments to make more of an effort before attending their appointments.

The beautician, known as ' turboweezy ' on TikTok, shared a video discussing the common issues she encounters when waxing her clients.
She began by explaining that women may unknowingly be wiping incorrectly, which can result in stool being transferred due to not properly cleaning their private areas.
Women are generally taught to wipe front to back to prevent this, but Rachel claims that not everyone seems to follow this advice.
She says this is the most common issue she encounters, noting that it not only creates a foul-smelling experience but also increases the risk of a urinary tract infection (UTI).
A urinary tract infection is an infection in any part of the urinary system, which includes the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra.
Rachel also mentions that some clients leave traces of toilet paper behind, which adds to the problem.
She adds that if you are ' sexually active ' with your partner before your appointment, 'chances are high that we know.'
Rachel explained that clients often tense up during the procedure, which can cause bodily fluids to be released. She urges people to be 'mindful' when preparing for these services.
She says: 'Some women don't realise this because, honestly, wiping back to front is easier, but it's not the correct way.'
Rachel also advises customers to shower before their waxing appointments, as failing to do so can result in what she calls ' sit-down air, ' where an unpleasant smell is carried upwards due to a draft.
She shared an anecdote, saying: 'There was a time I thought a client had a tampon in, which is totally fine, I went to move the string to get one side and it's toilet paper that has been wadded up so far that it looked like a tampon string.'
Rachel also isn't a fan of girls who come to their appointment straight after the gym, due to how 'sweaty' it is down there.
She also advises to exfoliate in the shower, as well as use a washcloth or a silicone loofah to get in between every area of your body.

Her video, which was shared on 2 April, has gone viral gaining 39.2million views and 67.4K comments.
One wrote: 'You're so professional with this, thanks to you I realise I have good hygiene.'
A second added: 'Girl, this was delivered with so much love and information.
'I don't think it came off bad at all. It came off as big sister energy.
'I was worried at first but your delivery was great.'
And a third said: "I would never EVER go to a wax appointment without showering omg.'
How to prepare for a bikini wax
IF you're thinking of booking a bikini wax, here's how you can prepare.
Choose the Right Time: Schedule your appointment at least a week after your menstrual cycle when your pain threshold is higher.
Exfoliate: Gently exfoliate the bikini area a day or two before your wax to remove dead skin cells and prevent ingrown hairs.
Trim Hair: Ensure hair is about 1/4 inch long; if it's longer, trim it down for a smoother waxing process.
Avoid Caffeine and Alcohol: Steer clear of caffeine and alcohol on the day of your appointment as they can tighten pores and increase sensitivity.
Take a Pain Reliever: Consider taking an over-the-counter pain reliever about 30 minutes before your appointment to help minimise discomfort.
Wear Loose Clothing: Opt for loose-fitting clothes on the day of your waxing to avoid irritation post-treatment.
Communicate with Your Aesthetician: Don't hesitate to discuss any concerns or questions with your aesthetician before the session begins.
Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water leading up to your appointment to keep your skin hydrated and more supple.
