Preperation & Aftercare
Waxing
Before and after your wax treatment
1. Before your appointment:
-
Allow a minimum of 3 weeks hair growth, since your last form of hair removal.
-
Please shower on the day of your appointment, you can refer to the FAQs with what to do if you are on your period.
-
It is good practice to gently exfoliate the area 2-3 days before your appointment to help lift any stubborn hairs and get rid of any dry skin.
-
It helps to wear loose clothing for your wax appointment.
-
Finally, Relax! You’ve got this!
2. Care for the first 48 hours post wax:
-
Avoid sun, sex, deodorant, really hot showers/baths, chlorinated pools, gym or
exercise classes. -
No saunas, steam rooms, hot tubs or tanning (sunbeds, sunbathing or fake tan).
-
Avoid tight clothing on the waxed area.
-
After 3 days you can gently start exfoliating the area in the shower. I recommendexfoliating every day to help reduce ingrown hairs.
Please note: You may find you have some redness or small bumps immediately after
your treatment, please do not worry this is common. Redness should subside after
24-48 hours. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
