Aftercare for Wax

After waxing, it's crucial to follow a proper aftercare routine to soothe the skin, prevent irritation, and minimize the risk of ingrown hairs.

Cleanse: Use a gentle, fragrance-free cleanser and keep the area clean.

Exfoliate (Gently): After 48 hours, you can start exfoliating 2-3 times a week to help prevent ingrown hairs.

Sun Protection: Protect the waxed area from the sun to prevent sunburn and irritation.

Soothe: Apply a soothing gel or lotion, especially those containing aloe vera, chamomile, or calendula, to calm the skin and reduce redness. 

Moisturize: Keep the skin hydrated by moisturizing regularly with a gentle, fragrance-free lotion.

Avoid Heat and Friction: Steer clear of hot showers, saunas, steam rooms, and swimming for at least 24 hours.

Wear Loose Clothing: Choose loose breathable clothing for the first 24-48 hours, to prevent irritation from friction.

Avoid Picking: Avoid touching or scratching the waxed area to prevent infection.

Moisturize: Keeping your eyebrows and eyelashes moisturized after any lamination helps maintain their health and flexibility, preventing them from becoming dry and brittle. Apply castor oil or argan oil onto the lashes or brows!

Keep it dry: Avoid getting your brows and lashes wet for the first 24-48 hours. This includes showering, washing your face, and even sweating.

Avoid heat and steam: Steer clear of saunas, steam rooms, and hot showers, as heat can weaken the solutions and affect the results.

No makeup: Refrain from applying mascara, eyeliner, or brow makeup for the first 24-48 hours.

Be gentle: Avoid rubbing, touching, or picking at the treated area.

Sleep on your back: If possible, sleep on your back for the first night or two to avoid crushing or misshaping the brows and lashes.

Avoid oil-based products: It can break down the solutions, so use oil-free or water-based products around the eye area.

Conditioning serum: After the initial 24-48 hours, a conditioning serum can be used to maintain healthy and hydrated brows and lashes.
