Never shave in between wax appointments

Why you should never shave in between wax appointments

So you haven’t managed to get an appointment for your next wax and you have to show off your legs and just like that the thought pops into your head “Should I pick up a razor?”

You have been so committed to your monthly visits, your skin is super smooth, you haven’t had any nicks in forever and because of your monthly visits to Queen B, your hair has learned to grow on the same cycle. No stray hairs, no stubble – Amazing how it works when you work it.

But what happens if I shave in between my next wax appointment?

All that hard work and dedication goes straight out the window and you will need to start all over again! Add to the fact you are only shaving the hair at skin level so you will see it return after a few days – Your hair will also grow back thicker, coarser and fuller and as you are stimulating its growth, you will be encouraging the hair to grow back faster.

Lets not even start to talk about ingrown hairs!

Seriously – Skip shaving between waxes to stay smoother longer, just say no! Hold out until your next appointment or better yet, call us so we can add you to a waiting list – We will do our best to get you in as soon as possible!

Never shave in between wax appointments – But here is a hint – Book your waxes in for the rest of the year. You wax once a month so rather than wait until you need a wax to book your appointment, secure them in advance and that’s one less thing to worry about!

How you take care of your skin during your wax appointments has a huge impact on the results. Keeping your skin hydrated is the key and so is exfoliation – When you exfoliate, you are removing the dead skin and helping to prevent ingrown hairs at the same time.
