Do Your Research Before You Get Waxed: A Cautionary Before and After

/ Do Your Research Before You Get Waxed: A Cautionary Before and After
Pubic Mound Before and After at Kissed Peach

The before and after photo above is a great example of why it is so important that you do your research before going in for a Brazilian wax, or any skincare or waxing service! This client came to us from another waxing studio after dealing with painful razor burn and ingrown hairs. Through products and services, we were able to clear it up for her in just eight weeks and get her back on a healthy waxing schedule.

When waxing, it is important that you get all the hair and do not let it break off. When a hair follicle is injured or damaged during hair removal, it becomes vulnerable to staph bacteria.

Brazilian Wax Pull at Kissed Peach

This is the kind of pull we want to see! When you get a successful wax you SHOULD be pulling the hair out by the root. Yes, it’s painful but you are not shaving or breaking off the hair. When you pull the hair follicles out by the root you are forcing the hair to grow completely back by the bulb. That takes time. So when you rebook within three to eight weeks depending on your hair growth (yes it’s dependent on your body) then we are forcing each and every one of your hairs onto the same growth cycle.

Waxing at Kissed Peach

Waxing performed at Kissed Peach is as unique as our clients. With three different kinds of wax for every skin type available and over one hundred hours of continuing education strictly for waxing techniques, you can be sure to leave hairless and feeling ready to take on the world. Our specialty and most sought-after waxing service, the Brazilian, is not only quick, but efficient, and will make everyone feel comfortable and feel confident in their own skin. Each Brazilian takes less than 20 minutes and includes light extractions, high frequency, and skin care products, if necessary. All customizing the experience for the best possible outcome for each individual client.

What to Know Before Your First Waxing Visit

First off, it’s important to let your hair grow out to about the size of a long grain of rice (or about two to three weeks of growth). This helps ensure that your hair is completely removed from the root. It’s especially important to grow the hair out if it’s your first wax.

What to Know After Getting a Wax

A proper after-care routine is crucial when it comes to getting waxed. Your skin will be sensitive, so here are some tips we recommend following after your appointment:

  • Avoid hot environments like saunas, hot tubs, steam rooms, tanning beds, and hot showers for at least 24 hours
  • Exercise is also not recommended for 24 hours after a wax appointment
  • Avoid skin-on-skin contact
  • Avoid tight, irritating clothing
  • Exfoliate two to three days after treatment to prevent ingrown hairs
