Preparation and aftercare for body waxing: useful tips

Proper preparation and aftercare are just as important as the procedure itself. With a few simple actions before and after waxing, you can significantly reduce discomfort, prevent ingrown hairs, and prolong the results of your hair removal. In this video, we show you what to avoid and what you should do to enjoy healthy, smooth skin.

What you’ll need:

• WaXx body scrub
• Numbing spray
• WaXx post-wax oil
• Towel (optional)

Before body waxing: Prepare your skin properly

• Exfoliate your skin the day before

Use a sugar or coffee WaXx scrub to remove dead skin cells and prevent ingrown hairs.

• Dry the area well

Skin should be clean and completely dry before waxing – free of creams and oils.

• Apply numbing spray

This will reduce skin sensitivity, especially if you’re more sensitive to pain.

After body waxing: Soothe and protect your skin

• Apply WaXx post-wax oil

It removes any wax residue and soothes the skin.

• Keep skin dry for at least 2 hours after waxing

This will protect pores from irritation and infection.

Tips from the WaXx Me team:

• Do not wax immediately after working out or sun exposure.
• For best results, hair should be the length of a grain of rice (about 4–5 mm) – not too short and not too long.
• Take care of your skin regularly, not just on waxing day – it will thank you for it.
