Waxing doesn’t end when you leave the studio — aftercare plays a crucial role in how your skin heals and how long your results last. A few simple steps can make all the difference!
Before Your Wax:
Right After Your Wax (First 24–48 Hours)
Your skin is more sensitive immediately after waxing and your follicles are exposed, so be gentle!
Between Waxes (Ongoing Care)
Consistent aftercare keeps skin smooth and prevents ingrowns!
Important Notes
If you ever have questions about your skin or aftercare, I’m always happy to advise, don't hesitate to contact me regarding any questions at all about waxing, products, aftercare, etc!
How long does my hair need to be?
- your hair should be at least 1/4 inch or a grain of rice long, this allows the wax to grip hair properly and give better results.
Is waxing painful?
-Everyone’s pain tolerance is different, but most clients find it very manageable. I get people telling me all the time ‘that was the quickest easiest and most comfortable wax I’ve ever had!’
Can I wax during my period?
Of course you can! I just ask that you wear a tampon or menstrual cup for your wax, I also provide tampons at the studio. Please note that your skin and pain tolerance will likely be more sensitive around your period
Can I wax if I’m pregnant or plus sized?
Of course! you can wax like normal, however the positioning for the wax may differ slightly depending on how big your bump is and/or how much you can move but don’t worry I’ll guide you through :)
How often should I wax?
Most clients wax every 4–6 weeks. Keeping a regular schedule helps reduce regrowth and makes treatments more comfortable and hair weaker and thinner over time.
What should I avoid before my appointment?
Avoid tanning, sun exposure, exfoliating, or using active skincare on the area for at least 24 hours before your appointment.
What should I avoid after my wax?
For the first 24–48 hours, avoid heat, sweating, swimming, tight clothing, and perfumed products. Full aftercare guidance can be found on the Aftercare page!
Will I get ingrown hairs?
Proper aftercare and regular exfoliation greatly reduce the chance of ingrown hairs. I’m always happy to advise on suitable products and routines!
Is waxing hygienic?
Yes. Treatments are carried out in a clean, professional environment using very strict hygiene standards. Double dipping is a big no-no and all my tools and bed are sanitised between every client
What if I’m nervous or it’s my first time?
That’s completely normal. I aim to create a calm, private, and judgement-free environment! Everything is explained clearly, and your comfort is always the priority!
