Waxing Aftercare

1. No saunas, hot showers or hot tubs 48 hours after appointment
   • Your skin is more sensitive after being waxed so that you will be more reactive to heat post-wax.
2. No tight clothing in area of wax 48 hours after appointment
   • Tight clothing causes irritation but can also cause ingrown hairs.
3. Hydrate your skin internally and externally
   • Drink plenty of water and regularly moisturize with a fragrance-free lotion.
4. Start exfoliating 1-2x a week, 3 days post-wax
   • Exfoliating helps get rid of excess dead skin and minimize ingrown hairs. Avoid exfoliating too harshly or too frequently.
5. No deodorant 24 hours after underarm wax
   • You will notice that your armpits will smell less after getting waxed, why is that? Your hair holds your sweat and odor-producing bacteria so when you get rid of your armpit hair, there will be less of a smell! This helps because you do not want any products on your fresh wax that will irritate your skin.
