Waxing aftercare consists of a simple set of rules to take care of your skin and make sure the waxing effect lasts as long as possible. It is imperative that these steps be adhered to to ensure healthy post-wax skin.
Some slight soreness, small bumps and redness are common and perfectly normal temporary reactions, especially if this is your first wax. These symptoms usually subside over the 24-48 hours following your treatment, but please get in touch if you experience any persistent redness or irritation.
You should keep the waxed area clean, and avoid heat and friction during the next 24-48 hrs. This means:
No hot baths or showers
(cool to lukewarm is fine)
No saunas or hot tubs
No tanning
(sunbathing, sun beds or fake tans)
No sport, gym or exercise
No swimming in chlorinated pools
Avoid scratching/touching the area
Wear clean, loose fitting clothes
Hair Regrowth
You may notice a small amount of regrowth after a week or so. It can take up to 4 treatments for your hair to get on a growth cycle that gives the best results. Please do not shave, tweeze or use hair removal creams between appointments. To maintain your smooth appearance we recommend regular waxing every 4-6 weeks.
PREVENT INGROWN HAIRS
A few days after your appointment, gently exfoliate the skin up to 3 times a week using a body mitt, brush or scrub followed by post wax spray. Moisturize the area every day to keep skin supple and help new hairs to grow through easily.
