You will get the best waxing results by waxing regularly. Exfoliating and moisturizing is key to healthy skin and ingrown hair prevention. After a wax service please allow your skin to rest for at least 24 hours. Avoid touching the area that has just been waxed [especially the face] to help prevent blemishes, bumps & irritations. With regular waxing, hairs will become thinner and more sparse resulting in less hair & happy skin.
