Pro Tips To Prepare For A Painless Waxing Session
Waxing
has been a popular option for unwanted hair removal and keeping the skin smooth
for weeks, but it isn't a quick decision to take. No matter which area you're
willing to wax; small area like eyebrows and upper lips or large area like
chest, legs or back, skin needs some time to recover from discomfort and
provide the best of results.
We
have brainstormed and prepared a list of "must do" things to ensure
that you're perfectly ready for next waxing appointment:
·
Self Checks
Check
your skin carefully before going for a waxing appointment. Conditions like
wounds or inflammation requires to be healed before you're ready to wax. Don't forget to point your moles or beauty
marks (if you have any) to the esthetician so they can be protected during the
waxing process.
·
Hair Length
Maintain
hair length for the wax to grip it. Short hair is difficult for wax to pick and
remove well enough; when hair is long, they prevent wax from sticking and cause
more pain. About eighth to a quarter of inch or 2-3 weeks of growth is ideal
for underarm, leg, and bikini hair.
·
Exfoliation
Exfoliate
the skin two days before waxing, but don't use scrubs on the day of your
waxing. It helps wax to grab only hair and not skin, but it also leaves the
skin sensitive to pain, so lighter is better. Any rough washcloth is good for
exfoliation, but don't rub too hard.
·
Moisturization
Good
moisturization is imperative till the day before your waxing appointment. A
well-moisturized and healthy skin is easy to wax. But remember that too much
moisturization sometimes coat the hair and interfere with the wax's grip, so
avoid using a moisturizer on your waxing session day.
·
Medication
Some
medications can damage skin to waxing. For example Retinol-A creams are amazing
for acne, fine lines, and pigmentation, but it also leave skin venerable to
injury during waxing. It’s highly advisable to discontinue retinol creams for 2
weeks before waxing. Regular users must stop taking the medication a month
before waxing session and talk to your dermatologist before making any changes
to your prescription medications.
·
Bikini Wax
If
you prefer a Brazilian wax or regular bikini waxing, just make sure to keep the
skin scrupulously clean especially in the bikini area. The process of waxing
sometimes leave skin prone to infection, sometimes area of the body that are
normally damp and warm are more prone to bacterial growth.
·
Experts Tip
Don’t
be afraid to ask your wax specialist what kind of wax they use. This will help
you to have an idea whether in-use product is hard or soft as well as if it is
a bee wax (must know if you are a vegan).
