Wax Wednesday: Waxing Do's & Don'ts for Smooth Skin

Exfoliate 2–3 days before your waxing appointment to remove dead skin cells and reduce the risk of ingrown hairs. This helps achieve a smoother Brazilian or body wax.

Arrive with clean, dry skin for your waxing treatment. Avoid applying lotions, oils, or deodorant before your appointment.

Wear loose-fitting clothing after your Brazilian, bikini, or full body wax to minimise irritation and keep your skin comfortable.

Moisturise daily and exfoliate gently after 2–3 days to maintain smooth skin and help prevent ingrown hairs between waxing sessions.

Don't shave between waxing appointments. Hair should be around 6–10 mm long so the wax can grip the hair properly for the best results.

Don't apply creams, oils, or body lotion before your wax, as they can reduce the effectiveness of the waxing treatment.

Don't expose freshly waxed skin to heat such as hot showers, saunas, or direct sunlight for at least 24 hours after treatment.

Don't touch or scratch the waxed area, and avoid swimming pools or intense exercise for the first 24 hours to reduce irritation and protect your skin.
