Preparation for Your Waxing & Homecare

Preparation

In Preparation for waxing treatments, I suggest the following:

• On the day of treatment, do not swim or soak in a bath.
• Do not sunbathe or use a sun-bed.
• Do not use oils or moisturisers on the areas to be treated.
• Do not exercise vigorously.
• Clean or disposable underwear should be worn for bikini waxing.
• Hairs need to be a least ¼" long.
• Previously bleached hair tends, when waxed tend to break off at skin level.

Homecare

• Have only lukewarm showers and baths, preferably not until 8 hours after the treatment.
• Gentle exfoliation 2-3 days after the treatment.
• Do not use highly fragranced products.
• Refrain from applying anti-perspirant deodorant or perfumed products to the area.
• Avoid applying make-up over the area.
• Avoid saunas, spa pools and swimming pools.
• Avoid sunbathing or having a sunbed treatment.
• Do not apply fake tanning products to the area.
• Avoid sports activities, eg, jogging aerobics, etc.
• Avoid gardening - which could introduce dirt into the treated skin.
