Body Waxing Aftercare
Thank you for choosing Perfact Brow! For legs, arms, underarm, Brazilian, bikini or brow waxing, these steps keep your skin smooth and help prevent irritation and ingrown hairs.
Do & Don't
✓ Do
- Wear loose, breathable cotton clothing (especially after a Brazilian or bikini wax).
- Use a fragrance-free soothing gel if the skin feels warm or tender.
- Start gentle exfoliation 2–3 days after waxing, a couple of times a week, to help prevent ingrown hairs.
- Keep the area clean.
- Book your next wax every 3–5 weeks for smoother, finer regrowth.
✗ Don't
- Use hot tubs, saunas, swimming pools, tanning or do intense workouts for 24–48 hours.
- Apply scented lotions, deodorant (after underarm wax) or heavy products for 24 hours.
- Touch, scratch or pick at bumps or ingrown hairs.
- Expose freshly waxed skin to direct sun or tanning beds for 24–48 hours.
- Shave between appointments. It resets your growth cycle.
