Thank you for choosing The Bee's Knees Beautique, LLC for your waxing needs!

Please follow the guidelines below to ensure your skin is cared for properly over the next few days.

Please note: some slight soreness, small bumps and redness are common and perfectly normal temporary reactions, particularly if this is your first wax. These symptoms should subside over the next 24 - 48 hours. If you experience persistent redness or irritation, or if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Keep the waxed area clean and avoid heat and friction during the next 24 - 48 hours.

This means:

• No hot baths or showers (cool to lukewarm water only).

• No saunas, hot tubs, massage, or steam treatments.

• No tanning (sunbathing, sun beds or fake tans).

• No sport, gym work or other exercise.

• No intercourse.

• Avoid scratching or touching the treated area.

• Wear clean, loose fitting clothes.

• Avoid swimming in chlorinated pools.

• Do not apply deodorants, body sprays, powders, lotions, or other products to the area, other than those recommended by your wax specialist.

 

To soothe and protect the skin, apply an antiseptic cream to the waxed area regularly for 3 days following your treatment. Always wash your hands before applying any product. 

To prevent ingrown hairs: starting a few days after your appointment and then continuing 3-4 times every week, exfoliate the areas you get waxed using a dry brush or exfoliating mitt with a body scrub. Take the brush and just before you step into the bath or shower gently brush the area you get waxed whilst your skin and the brush is dry. Do NOT exfoliate too much (more than once a day) or too rough as this can graze the skin and cause ingrown hairs.

Moisturize every day after showering to keep the skin soft and help new hairs to grow through normally.

You may notice a small amount of regrowth after a week or so. It can take up to 4 treatments for your hair to get on a growth cycle that gives best results.

Please DO NOT shave between appointments.

To maintain your smooth appearance, I recommend regular waxing every 4-6 weeks.
