post-brazilian wax tips

-refrain from strenuous work-outs for 24-hours after your appointment (esp. spinning and bikram yoga)
-refrain from using hot tubs, steam rooms, & saunas for 24-hours after your appointment
-aloe vera gel or lotion will help calm the skin after waxing and can be used immediately after your appointment
-wait 24-hours after your appointment before exfoliating the area


general maintenance tips
-use an in-shower physical exfoliant (ie. loofah or non-oily scrub) 2-3 times a week to keep skin soft
-if prone to ingrown hairs, use a chemical exfoliant as well (ie. ingrown hair serum) once a day, or as often as your skin can handle w/o becoming dry and flaky


after your first brazilian...
-using an antibiotic cream in the morning and a hydro-cortisone cream in the evening is suggested for the 3-4 days after your appointment. the combination helps to prevent small white-head-like blemishes from occurring. (if you do get these small bumps, they go away on their own within a couple days after waxing).
