How Do I Prevent Ingrowns?
Exfoliate throughout the month. It will give you the best results for a few reasons. With regular exfoliation not only do you prevent ingrown but the skin around the hair follicle will not get as thick. This means that your hair removal process will be less painful.
Make sure you exfoliate as often as you can.
Take cleansing showers after the gym or after sweating. If you don’t have a chance to shower make sure that you try to change your underwear asap.
Friction can attribute to ingrowns. Intercourse especially while the pores are open can irritate the skin substantially. Use our handy muff wipes after intercourse or gently cleanse.
Panty liners can cause ingrown.
Try to stick to cotton underwear, let your skin have a chance to breath. Take breaks from tight synthetic clothing(leggings.) Your skin will thank you.
Q. Is it safe to get sugared while pregnant?
Yes absolutely, however it is much more painful. I recommend not get a Brazilian for the first time at 9 months pregnant.
Q. Do women get hair on their back, tummy, toes, backs of thighs?
Yes, its super normal and we can help.
You are able to have your hair line sugared. As well as peach fuzz on the face.
Q. Will my hair grow back thicker or black?
It is common for the first service or two to have growth come in a little darker but it then thins out and lightens up.
Eyebrows for some reason are their own playing ground. They always grow back in the same way.
Q. Is my hair too long?
We can sugar at any length, however it is more painful if its long. Trimming before hand is great.
