The process of unwanted hair removal through waxing has its positive and negative effects. Obviously, you get hair-free for long timeunlike post-shaving and that tell-tale stubble, but let’s get serious — the pain is real! The quick yank that pulls the hair can bother even the toughest skin after the waxing session. However, if you follow the following tips, it can help you with skin care after waxing. Here’s how to get it done:
Areas like bikini line or armpits getting waxed seemseasy— but, if you are not careful, these areas get irritated from the rubbing of jeans or wool sweater. So,we recommend wearing comfortable clothing like cotton sweatpants and a soft, cotton t-shirt to ensure that your sensitive post-wax skin doesn’t get irritated. Loose clothing is a good idea, as you don’t want to rub your freshly waxed skin the wrong way.
Those planning to get waxed before a beach trip or pool party, schedule your appointment before the trip to avoid any irritation. After waxing your skin may experience sensitivity — which in turn, can increase if exposed to salt water or chemicals used to chlorinate your pool or hot tub. Stay out of the water for 12 hours post wax and also rethink before taking a hot bath or shower.
Applying ice could be usefulfor pain relief before waxing and it can also temporarily soothe the recently waxed skin. Always remember to apply a cold compression to waxed area on and off for a few minutes. This will provide the sensitive area a good cooling sensation.
After waxing, your skin may experience more sensitivity to sunrays than usual, so be careful if you plan to spend some quality time in Sun. It’s recommendedto apply physical sunscreen, as it’s immediately effective upon application.
It’s recommended to avoid fragranced beauty products for a few days —scented lotions, cleansers, etc. Instead, use gentle and fragrance-free cleanser, moisturizer, and body lotion for your post-wax skin care needs.
To keep your waxed skin free of bacteria, keep your hands away from that area. If you require application of gentle skin care products, do it with clean hands only.
It’s good to bring aloe verain your appointment — or, ask the wax specialist to apply some. Aloe soothes and hydrates sensitive skin, which could make your ride tohome from the salon much more comfortable. Aloe vera gel can also be a temporary alternative to moisturizer and body lotions.
Since hot water and scented body wash can cause freshly-waxed skin feel more irritated, you may like to consider a rinse-off before heading out for your wax appointment. It allows your skin some time to soothe itself.
