Your freshly waxed skin deserves more than just a service – it requires aftercare. It's not just about preserving your results; it's about nurturing your skin's health and comfort. Below are some practices and tips to help your skin. Think of it as your pathway to lasting comfort and the best post-waxing results!

Wax Service Aftercare

The First 24 Hours

• Avoid Heat and Sun Exposure - for the first 24 hours, stay away from hot baths, saunas, and direct sun exposure. Your skin is more sensitive after waxing and can easily become irritated by heat and UV rays.

• No Acids or Retinols - avoid the use of products containing acids or retinol, as they can potentially lead to skin irritation. It's crucial to thoroughly read and understand product labels before applying any skincare products.

• Wear Loose Clothing - depending on the waxed area, choose loose-fitting, breathable clothing to minimize friction and reduce the risk of irritation on the freshly waxed skin.

• Don't Touch - resist the impulse to touch, rub, or scratch the waxed region, as this could potentially trigger breakouts. Give your skin the opportunity to rejuvenate by allowing it to rest.

Regular Maintenance

• No Tweezing or Shaving - resist the temptation to tweeze or shave the waxed areas in between sessions. This allows for more effective and comfortable hair removal during your next appointment.

• Keep the Area Clean - gently cleanse the waxed area with a mild, fragrance-free cleanser to prevent infection or ingrown hairs. Avoid harsh scrubs or exfoliants.

• Stay Hydrated - drinking plenty of water can help keep your skin hydrated and maintain its natural elasticity.

• Gentle Exfoliation - after 48 hours of a wax service, you can gently exfoliate your skin to prevent ingrown hairs. Use a mild exfoliant or a soft exfoliating mitt. Be gentle to avoid irritation and exfoliate 2-3 times a week. Don't forget to moisturize for healthy, smooth skin.

• Avoid Fragranced Products - skip scented lotions, perfumes, or products containing alcohol on the waxed area for a few days, as they can cause irritation.

• Schedule Follow-up Appointments - plan your next waxing session according to your hair growth cycle to maintain smooth and hair-free skin.

✨Pro Tip

• Aloe Vera Ice Cubes - freeze aloe vera gel in an ice cube tray and use the aloe vera ice cubes to gently soothe the waxed area. The coolness of the ice reduces inflammation and the aloe vera's natural properties help calm and hydrate your skin. It's a refreshing way to ease any post-wax discomfort.
