WAXING

What should I avoid before waxing?

There are certain medications and products that should not be taken or used if you plan  to have a waxing treatment soon. Topical exfoliants on the area to be waxed such as  Retin-A, Renova, and hydroquinone, oral acne medications such as Accutane,  blood-thinning medications, and topical/oral cortisone make the skin more sensitive and  increase the likelihood of irritation or other complications. Please check with your doctor  if you are unsure whether you should be waxed while on or using a medication.

What should I do in-between waxing?

The usual time between eyebrow waxes is around 4 weeks. The best thing to do is  tweeze any stray hairs but DO NOT touch the arch of the brow, or any hairs inside the  brow. When tweezing, remember to tweeze in the direction of the hair to easily pull out  the hair. This is best to do after a bath or shower. A good concealer over the top of any  stray hairs is also very effective to keep the shape of the brow between waxes.
