Gently wash with lukewarm water and antibacterial soap.

If you are prone to breakouts, use a drugstore acne face cleanser as your bodywash.

Soothing products like aloe vera and witch hazel are perfect to apply to the skin Immediately after waxing. Avoid heavy layers of creams and oily products as they won’t allow the skin to breathe and can often cause more irritation. For prolonged redness, apply a hydrocortisone cream.

Some people may experience bumps during or after a waxing treatment. Frequently, this is due to a histamine reaction. Sometimes the reaction will be immediate, and sometimes it will come up gradually over the first few hours. We recommend taking an antihistamine such as Benadryl.

Avoid sun exposure and tanning beds for 48 hours prior to and after your wax.

To avoid ingrown hairs, gently exfoliate the waxed area(s) several times a week starting a couple of days after waxing. Shower gloves are a great way to accomplish this.

If you do get an ingrown hair, treat with a product such as Tend Skin.

Avoid the gym for 24-48 hours after waxing. Friction and sweat do not mix with freshly waxed skin, and could lead to an infection.

We recommend no standing water for 48 hours following your waxing service.

This includes: 

hot tubs, baths, and swimming pools.
