After Wax Care

After your appointment, there are a few additional things that you can do during after wax care to ensure that your skin stays smooth and free of bumps or breakouts, which are some of the most common problems after a wax.

Stay Out of the Water: Newly waxed skin is vulnerable to infection, which is why you’ll want to give yourself a bit of time to heal before getting into the water. Sources of standing water in particular, such as beaches and pools, are a concern and should be avoided for 24 hours after a wax. Showers are fine after the procedure.

Keep Your Hands to Yourself: It may be tempting to check out your newly smooth skin. However, you’ll want to wait at least a day before running your fingers down there. This is because your fingers are likely to introduce bacteria to the newly sensitized region.

Chill-Out: Because the newly waxed area is more sensitive and more susceptible to invading bacteria, it’s best to avoid heat, sweat, and friction after your wax. For at least 24 hours, you’ll want to avoid saunas, tanning beds, and even the gym.

Wait for Sex: Give yourself about 2 days, or 24-48 hours, to recover from the wax before engaging in any sexual activity.

Keep it Loose: Avoid tight and constricting clothing for a few days after your wax. This helps the area heal faster and avoids friction, which can cause sweat and bacteria buildup.

Soothe Irritation: There is a variety of high-quality products that are designed to help soothe post-waxing irritation. About two days after the wax, you can also use oils to help ensure smoothness.

Exfoliate: Two days after your wax, use a good quality exfoliant to help avoid ingrown hairs. Remember, that exfoliating too soon can cause additional irritation to your skin, so you should definitely wait for the 48-hour mark, or even longer if your skin is particularly sensitive.

Other Tips:

• New bumps are usually from irritation, while older bumps are from ingrown hairs
• Timing is key to having a positive waxing experience. Avoid scheduling during your period, and give yourself at least two days away from the gym and from any strenuous activity.
• It’s normal to have post-waxing bumps, and they can last for a day after your wax. Although, using a soothing gel or cream can help you get rid of the bumps faster
• Avoid contaminating the area with your fingers and avoid activities that cause friction
• Exfoliating two days after your wax helps get rid of ingrown hairs
• If bumps persist or become itchy, you may be experiencing an allergic reaction. Over-the-counter allergy medication like Claritin may help, but if the problem persists, call your doctor. It’s also a good idea to contact the salon to get the names of the products that were used, so you know what to avoid in the future.
• Using high-quality wax and wax aftercare products will help ensure a better result.
