AFTERCARE

Immediately After Waxing

  • Avoid Touching the Area Resist the urge to touch the freshly waxed area to prevent bacteria from entering open follicles.

  • Apply a Soothing Lotion Use a lotion or gel with aloe vera or tea tree oil to calm the skin and reduce redness.

For the First 24-48 Hours

  • Avoid Heat and Sweat Steer clear of hot baths, saunas, steam rooms, sexual intercourse, and intense exercise to prevent irritation and infection.

  • Stay Away from Direct Sunlight The skin is more susceptible to sunburn immediately after waxing. Apply sunscreen if you need to be outdoors.

  • Avoid Tight Clothing Wear loose-fitting clothes to allow the skin to breathe and prevent friction.

General Aftercare Tips

  • Moisturize Regularly Keep the skin hydrated with a gentle, fragrance-free moisturizer.

  • Exfoliate Gently After 2-3 days, gently exfoliate the waxed area to prevent ingrown hairs. Do this 2-3 times a week.

  • Avoid Harsh Products Refrain from using perfumed lotions, deodorants, or any harsh skincare products on the waxed area for a few days.

  • Use a Cool Compress If you experience redness or swelling, apply a cool compress to soothe the skin.

If You Experience Irritation

  • Apply Hydrocortisone Cream For significant irritation or bumps, a hydrocortisone cream can help reduce inflammation.

  • Consult a Professional If you notice any signs of infection (such as pus, excessive redness, or heat), contact a healthcare provider or your waxing specialist.
