PRE & POST WAX ADVICE

Top tips to get the best from your waxing treatments.

Before Waxing

• Your hair needs to be at least ½ cm long for us to wax successfully. Come & see us every 4-6 weeks and no tweezing, shaving or hair removal creams between appointments, please
• Avoid using chemical exfoliants (AHA or BHA products) 48 hours prior to waxing
• No sunbathing, sunbeds or heat treatments for 24 hours beforehand
• Do not use bath oils or apply heavy body lotions on the day of your treatment

After Waxing

It is quite normal for your skin to look and feel a little irritated immediately after waxing, especially if this is your first treatment. This will subside over the next day or so, but please get in touch if you have any questions.

• Keep your freshly waxed skin clean & avoid heat and/or friction for 24-48 hours
• Only take cool baths or showers during this time
• No vigorous exercise, sport, swimming or gym work
• Avoid touching, scratching or rubbing the treated area
• Wear clean, loose-fitting clothing for comfort
• Apply a soothing lotion as recommended by your therapist to calm and protect waxed skin. Ensure you use a sunscreen on any exposed areas
• Starting a few days after your treatment, use a body scrub, brush or mitt to gently exfoliate your kin 3-4 times per week. Couple with a daily moisturising lotion to help prevent ingrown hairs
