Pre Waxing Tips

Posted on

Firstly Important If you have never been waxed before  or are using a new salon have a patch test with the wax that will be used on your skin 24hours before your treatment.

ideally  you need 3-8weeks hair growth

I always suggest the longer the better as your hairs grow at different rates.

The rate or speed of hair growth is about 1.25 centimetres or 0.5 inches per month, or about 15 centimetres or 6 inches per year.

So a month is more than long enough!

Before your waxing its always a good idea to exfoliate the skin with either a scrub or hand mitt.

I like using Soap & Glory Sugar Crush Body Scrub £8 from boots. It is quite Grainy and really gets the blood pumping and skin smooth. I would not suggest this for sensitive or reactive skin types as it is quite harsh. Never use on Broken or cut skin.

Do not apply any moisturiser after you have exfoliated. No Body Sprays or Deodorants.

After Your Waxing

How you feeling? So good being Fuzz Free! isn’t it?

A few Tips

Wear loose fitting clothing after your wax as you can feel sticky so tights is a no no!! nightmare to get them back on!

Try not to touch the area after waxing & do not apply any creams, lotions, make-up or deodorants for 24hours after.

Try not to shower or bath after your waxing but if it is necessary have a luke warm bath or shower with zero body wash found in your local supermarket or boots store.

Tea tree lotion can be applied to the area after treatment. I love Australian Body Care tea tree lotion! great for all over the body!

We Stock That so you can buy that when your in for your waxing.

To keep your hair to a minimum we suggest re-booking for your waxing treatments from 4-8weeks time! call 01603 263223 to book your next appointment.
