What should I pay attention to after waxing? How to care after wax depilation?
Wax hair removal is an effective and convenient hair removal method. Nowadays, many women wax themselves at home. Although it is short-lived, the wax depilation area is relatively large and can last for about 2-3 months. But many women only know hair removal, but they don't know how to care for it, which leads to various skin problems. Let's take a look at the nursing methods after wax depilation.

1, calm the skin

Because beeswax hair removal method is a hair removal method close to plucking method, the chemical components contained in beeswax are easy to cause irritation to the skin, and the tearing process is very painful, so calming the skin can alleviate the tingling.

Methods: Ice cubes were directly applied to the waxing area through gauze or alcohol-free aloe cream.

2. Apply anti-hair gel or essence.

In order to prevent the skin from growing hair after waxing, applying anti-hair gel or anti-hair essence can cut off the hair from absorbing nutrients from hair follicles and achieve the effect of inhibiting hair growth.

Step 3 keep your skin clean

If some hair breaks and stays in pores after wax depilation, it is easy to breed bacteria in hair follicles and cause folliculitis without paying attention to the cleanliness of the skin. Be sure to clean your skin on time after waxing, and don't worry that your skin will easily infect your ears and cause folliculitis.

4. Don't go to the gym right away.

Going to the gym and other activities will accelerate the secretion of sweat glands and cause the body to sweat. Doing so will increase the risk of bacterial transmission and avoid wearing tight fitness clothes, otherwise it will lead to skin allergies and acne. Besides going to the gym, sauna and steam bath are not suitable.

Step 5 avoid sun exposure

After waxing, it is the most sensitive time for the skin. If exposed to the sun, it may irritate the already sensitive skin, making the skin more fragile, thus causing other skin diseases. When you go out at a special time after waxing, you must apply sunscreen to protect your skin from harm.

6, the next hair removal time should not be too long.

The newly grown hair will become thicker and harder over time. If you don't depilate in time, these long and hard hairs will be particularly difficult to shed the next time, and the pain will increase greatly. Shortening the time of twice hair removal is a good way to relieve the pain of wax hair removal.

7, other matters needing attention

Generally, the pain of wax depilation will be relieved after 24 hours. If it has not been relieved, it is best to consult doctors in related fields to find out the cause of the pain and solve it in time.

8. The correct method of wax depilation

1. When looking for products, try to buy beeswax that can be dissolved at low temperature. It is cheap and easy to use, and can be dissolved in a simple water bath at home. Choose products containing natural oils, which are mild to the skin and less irritating, and can be easily washed with warm water. Pay attention to avoid water contact during use, because most similar products will lose their original characteristics at the moment of contact with water.

2. If you want to prevent the occurrence of body hair lodging, proper exfoliation and moisturizing are essential. Choose general body exfoliating products and gently exfoliate before and after hair removal. After hair removal, apply moisturizing lotion with light skin feeling in time. Don't pull down the body hair at will, which is easy to induce infection.

3. If the body hair is too short, it is difficult to catch it, and it is also difficult to remove the wax. If the body hair is too long, the pain of wax depilation will increase greatly. Therefore, the ideal body hair length should be between 1/4 inches and 3/4 inches. If it is too short, it is recommended to increase the length of body hair. If it is too long, you can trim it with scissors first and then wax it.

4. Don't wax your hair more than twice in the same place. For users with sensitive skin, 1 time is enough. If it is more than 2 times, it is easy to cause damage to the skin, and it is accompanied by extraordinary pain. It's really annoying to see the fish leaking through the net, so I gently pull it out with tweezers and clean it up later.

5. Apply a little baby powder on the corresponding parts first, which can absorb the excess moisture of the skin and reduce the influence of moisture on the efficacy of beeswax, thus making the application of beeswax more comfortable and achieving the effect of getting twice the result with half the effort.

6. Waxing at home is also in danger of being scalded by overheated beeswax. In order to avoid this situation, it should be tested before use. Apply a small amount of beeswax to your wrist to keep the temperature moderate. Some brands of beeswax (such as Wei Ting) have attached a fire indicator to the daubing tool. When the beeswax is overheated, the indicator will show "No", which means it is too hot to use immediately. When the temperature of beeswax is normal, the indicator will not show anything.

7. A key to the success of wax depilation is whether the direction is correct when it is torn off. When smearing, it follows the direction of hair growth, and when tearing, it is opposite to the direction of hair growth. When the beeswax paste is torn off, it should be as close to the skin as possible, and the included angle with the skin should be as small as possible, so as to avoid bruises and red spots.

8. The thinner the beeswax is applied, the better the hair removal effect is. After depilation, applying a little pressure on the corresponding parts will help relieve the pain. Therefore, after hair removal, you can press it on the corresponding part with your palm.

9. After hair removal, apply a little baby oil or some mild oil to the corresponding parts to soothe the skin and supplement nutrition.
