pre + Post Wax Care
Keep Your Skin
HAPPY
A GREAT WAX STARTS BEFORE YOUR APPOINTMENT AND CONTINUES AFTER YOU LEAVE. A LITTLE PREP + THE RIGHT AFTERCARE WILL HELP YOU GET THE MOST OUT OF EVERY WAX.
BEFORE YOUR WAX
BEFORE YOU COME IN, prep for your best wax experience
LET IT GROW
For your first wax, come in with at least 3 weeks of hair growth. No shaving beforehand.
SKIP THE CAFFEINE
Avoid caffeine the day of your appointment, as it can make you feel more sensitive during your wax.
STAY OUT OF THE SUN
Avoid tanning and prolonged sun exposure for 72 hours before your appointment.
PAUSE THE ACTIVES
Stop using retinoids, glycolic acids, chemical peels, or prescription acne treatments in the area being waxed for 10 days before your appointment.
AFTER YOUR WAX
YOU'RE SMOOTH. NOW WHAT?
KEEP IT COOL
For the first 24 hours, avoid gyms, saunas, pools, hot tubs, and anything that causes excessive sweating.
LET IT GROW
GIVE YOUR SKIN SOME SPACE
Avoid intimacy and unnecessary friction for 24 hours. Loose, breathable clothing is your friend.
SKIP THE SUN
Avoid tanning and prolonged sun exposure for 48–72 hours after your wax.
DON'T REACH FOR THE RAZOR
No shaving between appointments. Let your hair grow naturally until your next wax.
EXFOLIATE REGULARLY
After the first few days, exfoliate 2–3 times per week to help prevent ingrowns.
HYDRATE DAILY
Keep your skin hydrated with a non-comedogenic moisturizer.
