Post-Wax Tips

Wait to Exfoliate

Your skin may be sensitive for 24 to 48 hours following your hair removal services. Because of this, you should avoid exfoliating your skin in the area that was waxed for 48 hours after your appointment. After this time frame, gentle exfoliation will keep your skin smooth and can help prevent ingrown hairs and other irritations.

Postpone Exercising

Following waxing, your hair follicles will be enlarged. Rigorous activities that cause friction and sweating can allow bacteria to enter your pores, and this could lead to infection. If you have a gym session planned immediately following your waxing appointment, it may be wise to postpone your workout.

Hold Off on Applying Skin Products

Some skin products have chemicals in them that can sting and burn freshly waxed skin. Because your skin is so sensitive following waxing services, it is wise to avoid applying topical products to your skin for several hours after your appointment. Skin sensitivities will vary, and you can try a small test area to gauge yours.

Avoid Sun and Heat

When you have beautiful, hair-free skin, we understand that you want to flaunt it. While sunbathing, hot tubs, and saunas provide the perfect opportunity to do so, these should be avoided for 48 hours following your appointment. UV rays and excessive heat can irritate sensitive post-wax skin.
