SMOOTH APPEAL\u2019S TOP WAXING TIPS!<\/strong><\/p>\n GROWTH<\/strong><\/p>\n DO make sure hairs are of at least 4-6 weeks growth as this will help the product grip better. Long hairs can always be trimmed down before waxing, to around \u00bc inch.<\/p>\n DON’T wax shorter stubble hairs as it makes it difficult for wax to adhere to the hair.<\/p>\n POSITION<\/strong><\/p>\n DO keep the skin taut in this area as this will make waxing much less painful.<\/p>\n PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT<\/strong><\/p>\n DON’T attempt an intimate area until you have mastered waxing on other areas of the body.<\/p>\n PREP<\/strong><\/p>\n DO keep everything you’ll need nearby before you start. You don\u2019t want to get caught in an uncompromising position, and the process should be as relaxing and stress-free as possible.<\/p>\n DON’T exfoliate skin just before waxing, as this can cause your skin to get over-exfoliated and more prone to ripping during a waxing treatment.<\/p>\n AFTERCARE<\/strong><\/p>\n DO apply a cold compress, or the Smooth Appeal After Wax Gel to the area post-wax, as this will help reduce swelling, irritation or redness that may appear.<\/p>\n DON’T have a hot shower immediately after waxing. Taking a warm or lukewarm water shower typically softens our bodies. Therefore, if you wax after this, your skin may be irritated.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Professional formulas and results, without the salon price tag!
