What are post-sugaring instructions?
-
Give yourself the next 24 hours off of your typical workout routine.
-
Wear a baggy, breathable outfit, or spend some time relaxing at home au naturel.
-
Speaking of au naturel, refrain from sex for 24 hours if you sugared your pubic hair.
-
Tiny red spots may appear on the skin for a few hours, or even a day or so in some cases. If this should happen, do not be alarmed. This is just an indication that the hairs have been removed from the follicle and it is quite normal after a treatment. They will disappear. Our post-sugaring products (sold at Bronzed) can greatly help with this!
-
Keep your skin clean, cool, friction-free, product-free, bacterial and irritation-free for at least 24 hours after your service (avoid hot tubs and baths during this time).
-
If you must exercise within the first 24 hours, take a cool shower to close your pores beforehand.
-
When you bathe, keep the water at cooler temperatures and run it cold at the end.
-
If you experience inflammation, apply cold.
-
After your treatment, your skin may sunburn more easily. Avoid exposing your skin to the sun and any infra-red lamp or solarium for a minimum of two days. You should not receive a treatment if your skin is sunburned.
-
Exfoliate 24 to 48 hours after sugaring. With sugaring, exfoliation is important to the after care process. You should exfoliate 2 to 7 times a week following your appointment.
