Waxing Before a Big Event | The Spa and Lash Studio Clearfield

Your wedding day is fast approaching and you are excited to finally settle down with the man of your dreams. You will finally get to spend the rest of your life with the love of your life.
But wait… What about the unwanted hair all over your body? How? When will you get rid of it?
Waxing hair removal is one of the safest and most efficient methods to get rid of unwanted hair. You will be able to stay for a longer period without worrying about any hair growth.
The problem comes in deciding the best time to have the waxing hair removal. This guide will answer all your questions regarding your waxing appointment before your big day.
Are you getting a waxing treatment for the first time?
If this is the first time you are having a waxing hair removal treatment, you will feel a little more pain. This is because you have more hair and it will take more effort to get rid of the hair. It is important to book an appointment with a professional.
When you go for your appointment, inform the esthetician that this is your first time. He will know how to handle you so that you’ll be as comfortable as possible.
What about the preparation?
For best results during a waxing hair removal treatment, ensure that your hair is 1/8 to ¼ inch. This will allow the wax to have a better grip so that it will be removed from the roots.
You should also exfoliate on your appointment day. This will help to loosen the dead skin and bring the hair trapped beneath the skin to the surface.
To reduce the amount of pain you will feel when the process is ongoing, you can take some pain relieving tablets. You can apply a numbing cream on the part that will get waxed. With this, you will be able to endure the process to the end.
When is the best time?
If this is your first time, you should book your appointment one week before the big day. This will give you time to recover from any side effects like reddening of the skin before the big day.
If you have gone through a waxing hair removal before, you can schedule your appointment 3 days to your big day. This way, you’ll have recovered from any side effect.
Choosing the best treatment
The waxing treatments you will choose depends on the big occasion you will be attending:
Wedding
If you are planning for your wedding, here are some of the waxing hair removal treatment you can have:

• Brazilian waxing: this will get rid of the unwanted pubic hair. You should ensure that the esthetician has enough experience in Brazilian waxing before you confirm your appointment.
• Leg waxing: this will ensure that your legs are free from any hair
• Underarm waxing
• Lip waxing

Night out or a fancy event

• Eyebrow waxing
• Lip waxing
• Underarm waxing

Whatever your event is, there is a waxing treatment that will work best for you. The esthetician will help you in choosing the right event for your occasion.
Are there instances when waxing hair removal is not an option?
Unfortunately, not everyone can undergo a waxing hair removal process. Here are some of the conditions that would make your esthetician postpone your waxing treatment to a later date:

• If you are pregnant: there are people that may still choose to have a waxing hair removal treatment when pregnant. As a result of the pregnancy, your body is more sensitive and the pain may be too intense during the treatment.
• If you are intoxicated with alcohol: when you are high on alcohol, your skin will be very sensitive and this will lead to intense pain. As a result, you will suffer from more side effects compared to a person who is sober.
• If you have sunburns: if you have recently been exposed to sunlight and are suffering from sunburns, you cannot get on with a waxing process. You’ll have to wait until the sunburns are healed to have your treatment.
• If you are using medications such as Accutane or it is less than 1 year since you stopped taking the drug.
• If you suffer from a severe skin condition, a recent scar, cold sores or warts, the aesthetician should reschedule your appointment to a later date.

Now that you are free from unwanted hair, here are great aftercare tips
24 hours after your treatment

• Avoid touching or scratching the parts that have been waxed.
• Do not exfoliate the waxed part of your skin
• Avoid direct exposure to the sun: your skin
• Wear loose-fitting clothes to fasten your recovery process.
• Do not engage in rigorous exercises or even go to the gym

Instead of applying harsh beauty products, you should follow the instructions given by the esthetician. Soothing products such as aloe vera will really help to sooth the skin and get rid of any irritation.
Waxing hair removal will bring better results as you proceed. You will be able to stay for longer before getting a repeat treatment and even when the hair grows back; it will not be as dense as before.
It is important to avoid shaving between your waxing appointments. Instead, honor all your appointments so that together with your esthetician, you can get rid of all unwanted hair. The appointment will be between 4 to 6 weeks depending on your hair’s growth cycle.
As you enjoy your big day, you’ll not worry about your appearance as you already know everything is in place. If it is your wedding day, you will not shy away when having fun on your honeymoon even when wearing a bikini.
Book your appointment today and like many others who have had waxing hair removal, you will enjoy a hair free body for longer. If you are not sure about the right waxing spa for you, ask the people who have gone through the process in the past for recommendations. You can also check out the online reviews of the various waxing spas to help you make a choice.
