One of the best things a woman can do for herself is to give up the razor and shaving cream routine. For quick jobs, a razor and shaving cream gets the job done, but if you are looking for better results it’s time to get started with waxing in St. Johns, FL. Here are some tips to have a less painful and successful waxing appointment.
Before going in for the first appointment, it is important to know what type of wax is used and what ingredients are in the wax. Some people have very sensitive skin that does not tolerate certain ingredients well and other people won’t have any issues. One thing to be very careful about is fragrances. Some waxes have added fragrances, but do not work well for sensitive skin.
The next tip is to be aware of when the skin is most sensitive. For many women, the time right before a period is the worst time to schedule a waxing appointment because the skin tends to be very sensitive. Usually, the best time to schedule waxing appointments is the few days after the period is over and at least a week or two before the period.
Another thing that can be done to make the appointment less painful is to exfoliate the area to be waxed. Exfoliating the area will remove all the dead skin cells before the wax goes on and more wax will adhere to the hair, instead of the skin. This step will help reduce the pain and also help reduce breakouts as well. Also, before the waxing appointment, no matter how hard it is to refrain from trimming the hair or shaving it, remember the hair needs to be at least a quarter of an inch long in order for the waxing the be most effective. No matter how bad the hair looks, leave it be until the appointment.
Finally, it is important to be very open with the waxer. Waxers are professionals that have handled every situation imaginable. In order to have a good waxing experience, it will be important to let the waxer know what the limits are. Another important thing to let the waxer know is any products or lotions that are being used on the area.
