What to know

In the days before

Avoid aggressive exfoliation, tanning, and anything that leaves the area sensitized. Do not shave immediately before the appointment.

At check-in

Tell the technician about retinoids, acne medications, recent peels, laser treatments, sunburn, allergies, pregnancy-related sensitivity, or past reactions.

Prepare the area

  • Wear comfortable clothing for body waxing.
  • Keep the skin clean and dry.
  • Avoid picking, scratching, or exfoliating irritated skin.
  • Postpone if the area has cuts, active rash, or sunburn.
Important: Some medications and skin treatments can make waxing unsafe. Do not stop prescribed medication on your own; ask the prescriber and the salon whether the service should be postponed.
