Before you come to your waxing appointment, there are a few things you can do to ensure the best possible wax and prevent ingrown hairs. There are also a few things you need to know after your wax.

Before Bikini Waxing Guide

Before you come to your waxing appointment it’s important to prepare to get the best possible result.

• Take a nice warm shower and thoroughly clean your pubic area
• Your pubic hair should not be too long or too short. Between 0.5cm and 1.5cm is ideal
• Gently exfoliate the area prior to waxing
• Avoid swimming or too much sun 24 hours before
• Consider what underwear you are wearing. Can the waxer work around it? The area will be sensitive after, so not too tight.
• We provide a paper G-String and towelette for your convenience

After Bikini Waxing Guide

What you do after your wax will influence how the hair grows back.

• Avoid any heat sources like saunas, spas, steam rooms for 24 hours
• Avoid heavy exercise or sexual activity for 10 to 12 hours
• Avoid swimming and too much sun for a day or two
• Avoid tight clothing and tight underwear
• Gentle exfoliation 2 to 3 times a week will help to remove dead skin and avoid ingrown hairs
• Get a bottle of Caron Bump eRaiser to help prevent ingrown hair (available in-salon)
