Top Aftercare Tips from Our Experts

1. Skip the Heat

Avoid hot showers, steam rooms, and saunas for at least 24 hours after waxing. These can irritate freshly waxed skin and lead to redness or discomfort. Stick to lukewarm water to keep your skin calm and happy.

2. Exfoliate Gently

Regular exfoliation is the secret to preventing ingrown hairs and keeping your skin smooth. Use a gentle exfoliating scrub 2-3 times a week, starting 48 hours after your wax. This removes dead skin cells and helps hairs grow back properly.

3. Stay Hydrated

Moisturizing is key to maintaining the health and glow of your skin. Choose a hydrating lotion or oil that’s free of harsh chemicals, as freshly waxed skin is more sensitive to irritants.

4. Wear Loose Clothing

Tight clothing can cause friction and irritation on freshly waxed skin. Stick to loose, breathable fabrics for the first 24-48 hours to let your skin recover.

5. Avoid Sun Exposure

Waxed skin is more prone to sun damage, so steer clear of direct sunlight and tanning beds for at least 48 hours. If you need to be outdoors, apply sunscreen generously to protect your skin.
