Before and After Waxing Care

  •  Be sure the hair you want waxed has grown out 1/4 to 1/2 inch above the skin's suface. If too short, your hairs won't get caught far enough up into the wax to be successfully pulled out.
  • Plan on being waxed every two to six weeks, for best results.
  • Avoid showering or soaking the hairs in water, for several hours before waxing. Water softens the hair shafts, making them less likely to adhere inside the wax. Tough hair is easier to wax off.
  • Take a mild analgesic 30 to 60 minutes before the waxing. This will help decrease any discomfort caused by waxing.
