For the first 24–48 hours after your appointment:

• Avoid hot tubs, saunas, steam rooms, and very hot showers.

• Avoid strenuous exercise that causes excessive sweating.

• Avoid swimming pools, lakes, and beaches.

• Wear loose-fitting clothing to reduce friction and irritation.

• Avoid applying heavily scented products to the waxed area.

Wait 48 hours after your appointment before exfoliating. After that, gentle exfoliation 2–3 times per week can help prevent ingrown hairs and keep skin smooth.

Mild redness and sensitivity are normal and usually resolve within a few hours. Some clients may experience redness for up to 24 hours, especially after their first wax.

For the best waxing results, avoid shaving between appointments. Consistent waxing helps maintain the hair growth cycle and provides smoother, longer-lasting results.

Mild irritation is normal after waxing. Applying a cool compress and avoiding friction can help soothe the area. If irritation persists or you have concerns, please contact The Wax House.
