Waxing Tips and FAQs

Before your wax:

• Please make sure the area you are having waxed is free from sunburn or rashes.
• Do not shave the area for at least 3 weeks prior to waxing; if the hair is shorter than 10 mm we may not be able to treat you as waxing will simply cause the hairs to break.
• Please let us know if you are taking or have recently taken: antibiotics, Retin A, or Accutane.  These can make the skin very sensitive and can cause grazing of the skin.

After your wax:

• Avoid sun exposure to the waxed area for at least 48 hours.
• Do not exfoliate the waxed area for at least 48 hours.
• We recommend (and sell) Ingrostopper to help reduce inflammation and prevent ingrown hairs.
