Please follow the guidelines below to ensure your skin is cared for properly over the next few days after your treatment.



Please note: some slight soreness, small bumps and redness are common and perfectly normal temporary reaction, particularly if this is your first wax. These symptoms should subside over the next 24-48 hours. If you experience any lasting rashes or signs of infection, you should see your GP for medical advice.



Keep the waxed area clean and avoid heat and friction during the next 24-48 hours. This means:
• No hot baths or showers (cool to lukewarm water only)
• No saunas, hot tubs, steam treatments or swimming pools
• No tanning (sunbathing, sunbeds or fake tans)
• No sport, gym workout or other exercise.
• Avoid scratching or touching the treated are with unwashed hands
• Wear clean, loose fitting clothes
• Do not apply deodorants or perfumed products
• Avoid any sexual activity after intimate waxing
• To soothe and protect the skin, apply an antiseptic cream (e.g. aloe Vera) to the waxed area regularly for 3 days following your treatment.

To prevent ingrown hairs: starting a few days after your appointment, gently scrub the skin a couple of times a week. Also moisturise the area every day, which will keep the skin supple and help new hairs to grow through normally.



You may notice a small amount of re-growth after a week or so. It can take up to 4 treatments for your hair to get on a growth cycle that gives best results.
Hair needs to be at least  ½cm long before it can be successfully removed by waxing; please do not shave between your appointments. To maintain your smooth appearance, regular waxing is recommended; every 4-5 weeks.
