Waxing Tips
So many people are getting hair removed by waxing today but there still seems to be some confusion on the best things to do prep and post. We want to shine the light on how great waxing can be for hair removal and give you all information that you're too afraid to ask.
Here we go! 

• Length matters! You should grow your hair out at least 1/8th of an inch for best results. You may need to do a trim the day before depending on where you are getting waxed. Too long is as bad as too short.
• Many ladies use products with retinol in them to improve skin texture. While it works great to reduce fine lines and wrinkles it can cause redness and irritation after waxing. Please avoid using products with retinol in them two days prior to and a few days after your waxing appointment.
• Do not shave between waxing. Shaving seems like a quick and easy fix for hair removal but it stimulates hair growth. Waxing without shaving, over time, reduces the amount of hair and rate of growth.
• It's very important to exfoliate and moisturize your skin daily. Especially in the winter months, the air is drier and in turn dries out your skin faster. When the hair is dry when waxing, the hair can become damaged. Damaged hair grows back thicker and faster. 
• Do not skip appointments during winter months. You should wax year-round to achieve best results. All the progress you've made on your hair growing thinner and less frequent will be lost. In the spring you will have to start over.
• The ideal time to wax before a trip is 2-3 days before leaving. Hair will start to grow back in 4-8 weeks.
• Waxed areas are more sensitive to sunlight. Especially the first 24 hours after waxing. Make sure you are using a sunscreen if the areas are exposed to the sun.
• Waxing is best left to a professional. The chance of you burning yourself is great if you use an at home product. This is not the time to DIY it!
