After Waxing Care: Our Top Tips

Getting your skin ready before a wax is important, but your after-waxing skin care regime makes a huge difference in giving you a great waxing experience.

The most common reactions to waxing are redness, minor irritation and

ingrown hairs. But, with these aftercare waxing tips, you can have

the best results and most comfort after your wax.

1. Direct Heat, Sunlight, Hot Tubs

Avoid the sun or wear sunscreen right after a wax. Waxed areas are

prone to sunburn and hyper-pigmentation (small dark spots on skin)

when exposed to the sun. It is best to wait at least 48 hours before

exposing your skin to the sun. Also, as we head into wintertime and

hot tub season, be aware that hot tubs can open pores further and

water in general has bacteria (both of which can lead to post waxing

issues).

2. Avoid tight clothing

Tight clothing, especially on the waxed areas can cause irritation

and ingrown hairs. This is especially true along the panty line where

hair breaks off due to constant friction. Choose panties and under

garments carefully. Also, when choosing workout attire, remember that

friction and excess sweating mixed with tight fitting clothes can all

lead to an increase in irritation to the skin.

3. Exfoliate

Waxing exfoliates that skin, but don't start too soon. Using scrubs,

AHAs, and loofas within the first 24 hours after waxing can cause

further irritation to your skin, so wait about 48 hours before you

begin exfoliating.

4. Apply TendSkin

TendSkin is a miracle product if you get ingrown hairs. After waxing,

your pores are open for a period of time.  Open pores can become

clogged with skin oil and dead skin cells; TendSkin helps prevent

clogged pores and ingrown hairs.

5. Keep Your Hands to Yourself

Avoid rubbing the newly waxed area. This is especially true for

facial waxing. Remember, your pores are open for a period of time and

rubbing the area increases chances of filling your pores with oil,

skin cells, and other debris.

6. Sexual Activity

Many people ask about sex after bikini waxing. Just keep in mind

friction or anything that increases bacteria on the skin should be

considered.

My girlfriend tried a wax treatment yesterday and her legs turned red and itchy. I've been spending an hour now to look for remedies and I'm so glad I found out this post.

Very good tips, especially where the sunscreen is concerned. I experienced one of the worst sunburns I have had when as a teenager I went to the swimming pool with my buddies and my new shiny smooth legs and didn't wear protective sunscreen. Boy did I regret that, but learned a very good lesson!

Areas that are repeatedly waxed over long periods of time often exhibit regrowth that is softer. It is a more effective technique to remove bunch of hair at one time. It is a long-lasting method. Hair in waxed areas will not grow back for two to eight weeks. When hair is shaved or removed by depilatory cream, the hair is removed at the surface rather than the root. Within a few days, the hair can be seen at the surface.
