6 Things to Know Before You Get Waxed
With the aesthetic industry on the rise in recent years, it seems like new advancements have taken the world by storm – giving patients a plethora of new options for some of their favorite traditional spa care methods like hair removal or skin rejuvenation. In the world of a spa care treatment like hair removal, many practices are ditching conventional methods to make way for laser hair removal. And while lasers do have their merits, not just for hair removal but for other spa treatments like skin rejuvenation as well, many women still prefer the known feeling of their good old wax specialist. Waxing might be painful, might leave your skin red – but for many women, laser hair removal simply isn’t an option as it irritates their skin or their skin doesn’t work well under the hear of laser hair removal devices. Well for every one of them, who is still expecting the one-on-one spa care only a human can provide, Ms. Meticulous NY has got you covered! However, with as many women out there who are still fans of traditional spa treatment waxing, many are still unaware of the what this actually entails. To better educate you on all there is to know before your next wax session, here are 6 vital things to know.
· Do Your Homework
As we said before, for most, a spa treatment like waxing has gone the way of the Dodo bird and been replaced by costly lasers. That’s why many who still offer it are doing so not for the best reasons, at Ms. Meticulous, having a strong cult following for hair removal treatment like waxing means we do our best with every single session. But many are either there to rush or to do a terrible job. Read as many reviews as you can, look up the spa and the techs as best you can.
· Avoid Over-Exfoliation
The good thing about waxing, is that unlike laser hair removal there are a variety of things you can do a variety of skin rejuvenation treatments to your face, legs or body and still get waxed – however, anything that leaves your skin overly dry like exfoliating is definitely not one of them!
· Watch for Your Period
This should be a no-brainer, but for women – it is definitely not a good idea to schedule a bikini wax during that time of the month. Things will not be pretty!
· Pain-Proof Waxing?
Yes! There is such a thing – many spa treatments use a minor anesthetic cream to numb the area andull any pain that might be associated with the waxing process, as is often the case with laser hair removal.
· Avoid Working Out Right Away
A common mistake many women make is to workout super hard right after getting their legs waxed. While it is definitely not as bad as with laser hair removal, it isn’t advised unless you absolutely must. As the sweat could cause issues with any micro cuts in the skin.
· If You’re in Pain, Tell Someone
Sometimes procedures don’t go right, even if it is just a simple wax job, make sure that if you feel any excess discomfort that just seems like its not normal, or too far out of the normal – be sure to contact your doctor and get treatment right away!
