Waxing

Do's & Dont's

Do...

  • Exfoliate at least 3 times a week
  • Exfoliate the skin before your apppointment
  • Let your esthetician know if you are taking blood thinners, Accutane, Retin-A or similar products
  • Stop using topical acne or skin lightening products 1 week prior to your waxing service
  • Take ibuprofen 30 minutes before your appointment
  • Wear breathable clothing
  • Relax during your service; tense muscles make the area more sensitive

Don't...

  • Take extremely hot showers or saunas before waxing
  • Shave between sessions – this makes waxing more painful and less effective
  • Exfoliate 24 hours after waxing
  • Work out 24 hours after waxing
  • Tan 24 hours before or after waxing
