Wax Prep
Please come in with 1/4 inch length of hair (about 2 weeks without shaving from your last session), any longer and it will be a bit more painful/harder to wax
Please come in, in comfy and flowy pants/outfit
Shower and exfoliate (body scrub, body mitt, chemical exfoliant) your body 24 hours prior to your appointment
If you have your "monthly friend," please reschedule your appointment due to you being more sensitive
If needed, you can apply a lidocaine cream/spray 30 minutes prior to your wax to keep the pain minimal
Wax Aftercare
Don't exfoliate directly after your wax
Wait 24-48 hours to have "sexy time"
You can apply aloe or calendula cream post appointment to keep the redness/bumps at bay
After the first 48 hours post-wax, please exfoliate the region 1-2x/week! this will help reduce any ingrown or bumps!
