To ease hair removal discomfort, here are a few tips and tricks From Theresa’s Face and Body Cape Coral to make your service more comfortable.
Tips For Taking Off the Edge with Body Waxing
Has the best outcome when the skin is hydrated. When skin has proper moisture, healing is expedited and redness and irritation subside. It also helps to prevent hair from breaking off which can leave the skin feeling stubbly. This is especially important when you are having Brazilian waxing. To moisturize the skin, make sure to drink plenty of water throughout the week and an hour before your appointment.
Also, when undergoing body waxing, exfoliate the area with a loofah and apply a small amount of conditioner. Conditioning the hair works to keep it soft which will prevent it from breaking off during your service.
For a Brazilian waxing it is best to keep the hair trimmed to a ¼ of an inch in length. If cut too short, the wax won’t be able to grab the hair. If the hair is too long it could create discomfort and slow down the estheticians work.
Although many of you enjoy a cup of coffee in the morning, the day of your wax opt for a decaffeinated version as caffeine can make the nerves of the body hypersensitive which could lead to discomfort.
Another way to take the edge off with body waxing is take an over-the –counter pain reliever such as ibuprofen (either Advil or Motrin) an hour before your service.
Last, wear loose, comfortable clothing after your service. The skin can be sensitive after Brazilian waxing and loose clothing such as flowy skirts or pants will prevent irritation and allow the skin to breath.
