Frequently Asked Questions

What to do before your wax?

- Stop any form of hair removal and let the hair grow for a minimum of 3 weeks
- Exfoliate 2-3x a week leading up to your appointment with an exfoliating glove
- DO NOT pick at your skin!
- DO NOT drink caffeine or alcohol as it will increase your sensitivity
- Take an Ibuprofen/Tylenol/Advil 20 min. before your appointment, if you're worried about pain
- Wear loose clothing
- Stay Hydrated!

What to do after your wax?

- For 24-48 Hours DO NOT: Take hot showers (Cold or Warm is okay), submerge in a pool/hot tub, get in saunas, work out, have sex, or wear tight clothing.
- LET HER BREATHE!
   Whatever area you wax, DO NOT irritate and DO NOT Touch the area as your pores are open and it's so easy for bacteria to get in
- Moisturize with bush balm oils
- Wait 2-3 days before you start exfoliating

Tiny Bumps a few days after waxing?

Whether it's your first time or you've been getting waxed for a while if you see tiny pimple/bumps on your skin and/or they itch DO NOT FREAK OUT! Before coming after your waxer, understand it's NOT an allergic reaction! 99.9% when this happens there was irritation, friction or bacteria that entered/occurred after your wax. They DO go away, but they may itch and might not go away until the hair starts to grow back! This is why the first 24-48 hours are Crucial!

Hairs growing back a few days after a wax?

- This is more common if you just started waxing but can happen if you have been getting waxed for a while. The reason this happens is that: The hairs are all still on a different cycle and it takes a few waxes to get them all growing at the same time or your skin is DRY thus the hair breaks and is not pulled from the root or some ingrowns that are just beginning to poke out
- EXFOLIATE 2-3x A WEEK, AND MOISTURIZE DAILY

Itching after a few weeks after a wax?

- 2-3 weeks (average) after a wax you see black dots and it's red, inflamed, and it itches. Why? It means you weren't consistent in exfoliating in the first few weeks which are the most CRUCIAL times for Skincare! The hair is trying to grow and it's stuck under all the dead skin and it's struggling, so then they end up growing back into your skin resulting in ingrowns!
- Keep exfoliating gently, don't be rough, the glove/scrub is doing the work, and MOISTURIZE daily!

Can I get waxed during my cycle?

- YES MOST DEFINITELY
- Make sure you have a clean tampon in before your service (That being said if your need to go to the restroom before your appointment make sure you arrive earlier to do so)Take a Tylenol/Adil/Ibuprofen 20-30 Min before your wax as you will be a little more sensitive
- Drink lots of water 1-2 days before you appointment!
- If you Exfoliate 2-3x a week, stay hydrated, moisturize daily, keep area clean,get your wax in consistantly and dont pick at your skin for any reason,(Trust your waxer in extractions as it will be removed without tearing or damaging the skin)you will not have these things happen frequent or at all! Just remember, listen to your waxer, listen to your waxer, and listen to your waxer! The advice and products I recommend and tell you to use are not just to sell you, they are to help your skin, trust the process and your waxer!

How to get the least painful wax?

- Make sure you are extra clean (front & back) right before appointment.
- Take an aspirin or tylenol 30-45 mins prior to appointment.
- Get waxed 5-14 days after your period.
- Do not drink coffee or alcohol prior to appointment.
- Apply a numbing spray before appointment.
- Get a good nights rest!
