Sun Cheaters Tanning and Waxing

Waxing Aftercare Instructions



 

Make sure to keep the area clean, and avoid heat and friction during the next 24-48 hours.

Meaning:



No hot baths, saunas, hot tubs or steam treatments.

No tanning beds, or sunbathing.

No exercising.

​

Avoid scratching or touching the treated area with unwashed hands.

Wear clean, loose fitting clothing.

Do not apply deodorant, body sprays, powders, or any other products to the area without a recommendation from your therapist.

To sooth and protect the area apply and antibacterial cream to the area for three days following your treatment. For seven days following your treatment wash with antibacterial soap.

To prevent ingrown hairs: Starting a few days after your treatment gently scrub the area with an exfoliant such as a loofah or exfoliating mitt. Another great method of exfoliation is Tend Skin.

Make sure to moisturize the are daily, keeping the skin supple will ensure that new hairs have the ability to grow through the skin normally. Facial creams and Vitamin E make excellent moisturizers.

Remember it is normal to notice a bit of regrowth after a week or so following your treatment.  It may take up to 4 treatments to get your hair on the  same growth cycle.

Before booking your next appointment make sure the hair is between a 1/4 and 1/2 in. long. It is VERY important that you remember not to shave between treatments, for that can throw off the hair cycle.

To maintain a smooth hair free appearance, we recommend visiting your therapist regularly every three to six weeks.
