AFTERCARE

You now have smooth, bare, beautiful skin... you want to keep it that way, right? Home care is key! Exfoliate 2-3 times a week and moisturize daily. You will begin moisturizing 24 hours after your wax appointment, then begin exfoliating 48-72 hours after your wax appointment. You will continue exfoliating and moisturizing until your next wax appointment. This keeps the ingrown hair away, and prevents dead skin cells from building up resulting in beautiful, soft, smooth skin.

DON'T TOUCH

For the first 24-48 hours your follicles are open and prone to infection. Do not touch the area(s) waxed, our hands have natural oils that can cause a lot of issues to open follicles.

The area needs to stay as clean and as dry as possible during this time.

NONE OF THE FOLLOWING

For the first 24 hours

NO Lotion, Exfoliating, swimming, bathtubs, hot steamy showers, pools, hot tubs, working out, intercourse (sex), sweating.

For the first 48 hours

NO Yoga Pants, Exfoliating, Tanning (your freshly waxed skin will burn), self tanner, ocean, lakes, ponds, hot springs or any natural body of water.

For all areas waxed we recommend wearing CLEAN loose, cotton clothes following your waxing service to avoid friction and moisture.

Tight, non cotton clothing traps heat, and causes irritation, this can lead to ingrown hair and prolonged skin irritation.

HISTAMINE REACTION

(RED OR WHITE BUMPS)

Histamine reactions after waxing are very common and subside within a few days.

If you happen to have a histamine reaction following your wax, check with your doctor about taking Benadryl. Benadryl will clear the reaction quickly.

If your histamine reaction has white bumps, please apply topical cortisone cream to the skin with CLEAN hands until the bumps subside.

DO NOT begin exfoliation until the bumps have cleared.

DO NOT POP THE WHITE BUMPS, the reaction will spread to other follicles.
