Before your first waxing appointment

First time waxing? These simple steps help you get the best result.

• Let hair grow to about 5 mm (two to three weeks after shaving)
• Exfoliate gently the day before, not on the day
• Skip lotion and oil on the area on the day of your appointment
• Avoid caffeine just before if you're sensitive to pain
• Afterwards, avoid hot showers, saunas and the sun for 24 hours

Your therapist will check your skin before starting and talk you through each step.
