Pre & Post Body Waxing Care
Please be advised that multiple of our products contain lavender. Make sure to fill out your intake forms prior to your appointment so we can make the necessary changes.
PRE -
- Do not apply self tanners, body sprays, deodorants and other topical creams before your appointment.
- If you have been shaving, allow a minimum of 2-3 weeks or ¼ inch of hair growth.
- Schedule your wax 2-3 days before beach and poolside activities if you plan to sun bathe.
- No tanning beds, hot tubs and saunas before your appointment.
- Exfoliating the area gently 24 hours before your appointment will remove the dead skin cells and allow for a cleaner wax.
- Wear loose comfortable clothing to prevent irritation after waxing.
POST -
- Heightened sensitivity may be experienced in the area waxed for the next 24-48 hours.
- Avoid heat. No tanning, sun bathing, hot tubs or saunas for 48 hours after your treatment. Since a layer of dead skin cells have been removed, sun and or heat exposure can burn the skin.
- No hot baths or exercising for 24 hours following your treatment.
- Apply a cold compress to sooth the skin if you experience sensitivity or irritation after your treatment. Hydro-cortisone cream also reduces the redness and irritation following your treatment.
- Moisturize daily. We suggest Just the Strip nourishing oil made specifically for waxed skin.
- Exfoliate daily 48 hours after your treatment. We offer a nice selection of exfoliating products to help you maintain your wax and eliminate ingrown hairs.
