Waxing / Advice

Avoid the following for 24 - 72 hours after your waxing:

• Hot showers, baths, saunas and swimming pools
• Sun beds or sun exposure
• Excessive perspiration or friction
• Tight fitting clothing
• Fake tan, moisturisers or perfumes

Refrain from waxing if:

• You have used glycolic acid, Roaccutane, Retin-A or acne medication within the last six months
• You are using anti-ageing or skin thinning products for facial waxing
• You are sunburnt or have been exposed to UV rays within the last 24 hours
• You have varicose veins

General:

• Wax on a regular basis, preferably every 4-6 weeks as this will reduce the strength of the hair and in most cases reduce re-growth
• Do not shave or use depilatory creams inbetween waxes
• Exfoliate regularly
• Prior to your treatment do not use fake tan, moisturisers or perfumes
• Please inform us if you are pregnant or if there are any changes to your medical health
• Please don't be nervous, our team of female therapists are fully trained and perform these service everyday so please don't feel embarrassed in any way
