After you wax
First 24 hours
Things to avoid for 24 hrs after waxing:
Makeup, if face is waxed
Deodorant with aluminum.
Salt Glow or stimulating body or facial treatments.
First 48 hours
In the first 24-48 hours you may experience some sensitivity like redness or irritation in the area that was treated. These are normal and usually the reactions are less the more you get waxed. Here are some tips to follow during the first 48 hours after waxing.
Do not use any exfoliating products, especially ones containing acids, since they might further irritate your skin.
Showers are better than bathes. Use only lukewarm water-not hot.
No saunas, steam rooms, whirlpools or other heated sources.
Do not expose treated area to ultra-violet rays indoor or outdoor for two days. For your own protection always wear sunscreen. Extra precaution should be taken if using tanning accelerators. Wait 2-3 days to wax before/after tanning with accelerators
Avoid heavy exercise for at least 24 hours.
To avoid ingrown hairs don’t wear tight clothes for the next couple of days.
Resist touching freshly waxed skin, especially on the face, as this may encourage irritation and some breakouts.
Sexual activity should be avoided for at least 24-48 hours.
To avoid ingrown hair exfoliate the waxed area (starting after 48 hours since treatment) twice-three times a week to get rid of dead skin layer, so your hair can grow above skin surface.
Also applying ingrown hair solution like Get the bump outta here will help maintain smooth skin.
