Glow Up: Pre & Post Wax Care Tips!

Keep your skin and hair feeling fabulous by moisturizing daily and drinking plenty of water! Hydration is key to keeping everything soft and smooth, both inside and out. Dry, brittle hair is more likely to break during removal, causing more irritation, so keep that water bottle handy! 

Say goodbye to dry, dead skin and hello to smooth, silky softness! Exfoliating helps prevent pesky ingrown hairs and makes waxing WAY more comfortable. Start exfoliating 48 hours after your wax to give your skin time to heal. Skip the scrub right before your wax, though, to avoid irritating your skin. 

Consistency is key—keep exfoliating regularly for the best results! 

For the first 24-48 hours after your wax, keep the area dry and clean. Sweat, no thanks! Give your skin time to settle before it faces any sweaty situations. 

Opt for loose, breathable clothes on waxing day (and every day, really!). Natural fabrics like cotton let your skin breathe and avoid friction that could lead to irritation or ingrown hairs. Spandex and polyester are cute, but not so great for your skin—let it breathe! 

Hold off on the gym for the first 24-48 hours after your wax. Sweat and friction will make your skin cranky! Also, give yourself some time—at least 24-48 hours—before jumping into any steamy activities. 

After your wax, keep your skin out of the sun for 24-48 hours. Waxing exfoliates your skin, leaving it extra sensitive to those UV rays! Same goes for tanning—whether it’s the beach, a park, or a tanning bed, avoid it for 24-28 hours before and after waxing to dodge irritation or sunburn. 

Give your skin a break from bodies of water for 24-48 hours post-wax. Salt water from the ocean or hot tubs can irritate your skin, and chlorine from pools can be a little too harsh. Plus, pools can harbor bacteria—no thank you! 

Take care of your skin and hair, and you'll feel fabulous every day!
