Your Service Provider will give you bikini wax post care instructions following your waxing service. Below are some tips so that you can prepare ahead of time.
What should I wear?
Breathable fabrics are very important. Make sure you keep the area dry and clean from sweat. Failing to keep the area dry could lead to infection and/or irritation. If you consider yourself sweatier than others, a powder will help keep you dry after your service.
Avoid fragranced cleansers and moisturizers to reduce the risk of reactions.
Care at home
Bikini wax post care at home includes avoiding hot showers and baths for 24 hours. Hot water will cause the skin pores to open causing added irritation and risk of infection. Steam rooms and saunas should also be avoided for 24 hours. Like hot water, the steam will cause the pores to open.
Exfoliation 4 days after is good, particularly for people with coarse hair to avoid ingrown hair.
What if my skin is sensitive?
If your skin is sensitive post bikini wax, try using products with aloe vera to reduce irritation.
Let’s just say…the quicker the appointment the better.
Bikini wax pain is a hard measurement to report since our pain tolerance varies. According to most clients, on a scale of 0-5, with 0 meaning no pain, and 5 meaning maximum pain, the average rating is a 3.5. If you prefer a hairless look without the pain, we recommend IPL Hair Removal. In comparison to waxing most clients report a 1. While its about twice the price per session, you only need 8-12 sessions to reach a permanent reduction/removal.
But never fear! If you prefer waxing, our technicians are trained in efficiency and customer care. This means that your service will be completed under 30 minutes with as little discomfort as possible, and a high regard for quality care. Less bikini wax pain!
Can i get a bikini wax if i am on my period?
Yes, we ask that you wear a tampon and the string is tucked away so that it doesn’t get pulled out with the wax. However, keep in mind that you may be more sensitive to pain during this time.
