NKD’S WAXING AFTERCARE ADVICE

THREE STEPS TO HAPPIER SKIN AFTER HAIR REMOVAL

Moisturise daily to keep your skin supple which will allow your hair regrowth to break through the skin normally. Ingrown hairs and razor bumps are often caused by dry and flaky skin, which the new hair can’t grow through.

Use of a naturally-antibacterial cleanser will deep clean your open pores and help ward off any potential infection.

Starting from 2 – 3 days after your wax, gently exfoliate the waxed area in the bath or shower with a suitable exfoliator. Regular exfoliation of the waxed area is also key to preventing and eliminating ingrown hairs.
