Waxing Aftercare

Immediately After Waxing (First 24–48 Hours) ✅ Keep skin cool & calm Avoid hot showers, saunas, steam rooms, or hot tubs. Skip workouts or anything that makes you sweat heavily (can cause irritation or clogged pores). Don’t expose freshly waxed skin to direct sun, tanning beds, or heat lamps. ✅ Soothe the skin Apply aloe vera gel, witch hazel, or a fragrance-free soothing lotion. Avoid heavy oils, fragranced products, or harsh scrubs. ✅ Hands off Don’t touch or scratch the area — bacteria from hands can cause breakouts or infection. 48 Hours & Beyond ✨ Exfoliate gently (start 2–3 days post-wax, then 2–3 times a week) Use a mild scrub, exfoliating mitt, or chemical exfoliant (like AHA/BHA) to help prevent ingrown hairs. ✨ Moisturize daily Keep skin hydrated with a light, non-comedogenic lotion or oil. ✨ Wear loose clothing Especially right after waxing, to avoid friction and irritation. Extra Tips If you notice red bumps, apply a cold compress or dab a bit of tea tree oil (diluted). For ingrown hairs, use exfoliation + tea tree oil or salicylic acid. Avoid shaving between waxes — it disrupts the growth cycle. Schedule your next wax every 4–6 weeks for best results.
