Recommended Aftercare

For 24-48 hours after a Body Waxing service, avoid the following:

• Sunlight: No exposure to UV rays, no tanning beds, always wear sunscreen on the area you received the waxing service.

• Soaking: Warm water opens your pores and leaves them vulnerable to bacteria and irritation. No baths, swimming pools, hot tubs, or saunas. 

• Scrubbing: No harsh exfoliating, physical or chemical, to the service area.

• Sweating: No immediate exercise. Sweating, as well as the activities that cause it, can promote irritation and possible bacterial infection to your vulnerable hair follicles.

• Synthetic Products: Avoid lotions, body washes, or other products with synthetic ingredients. These are usually listed as “parfum / fragrance” on ingredient lists. Wear breathable cotton fabrics to decrease irritation and sweating. Avoid deodorant on your underarms for 24 hours as well.

Recommended Aftercare Products

After the initial 24-48 hours is complete, you should begin the following aftercare routine:

• Exfoliate: Exfoliating 2-3 times a week helps get rid of dead skin build-up and allows your hair to grow back without any impediment. use a gentle physical exfoliant such as a Salux towel or a chemical exfoliant, such as PFB.

• Moisturize: fur oil or Finipil post-waxing moisturizing cream helps keep the skin on the service area cool and calm, as well as having antibacterial properties. Use daily after showering for best results.

both of these products are available for purchase at the studio.

Recommended Follow-up Appointments

Waxing is most successful when it is done consistently. Maintaining a regular schedule of 4-6 weeks between waxes allows for a good amount of hair regrowth without breaking off and damaging your hair in between appointments. Consistency is the key factor to getting your hair on the same growth schedule and maintaining a longer smooth time between services.
