Prep & aftercare for all services

Please allow hair growth for at least 2-3 weeks. Hair should be at least ¼ long –– about the length of long-grain rice. For legs, 3-4 weeks is recommended. The longer the better!

IMPORTANT NOTICE: If, at the time of your appointment, your hair has not grown out sufficiently to meet the requirements for the service, regrettably, the appointment will need to be canceled and the full cost of the treatment will be due.

On the day of treatment, come in with clean and exfoliated skin and avoid applying any lotions or oil.  

Caffeine can increase sensitivity before your appointment. If you have sensitive skin, I recommend waiting until after your appointment to have caffeine. 

You can take ibuprofen 30 minutes before your appointment to help with pain. Please avoid any blood thinning medications.

Sugaring cannot be performed on sunburnt skin, open wounds, rashes, or scabs. You must allow the skin to heal before sugaring can be performed.

Absolutely no shaving in-between maintenance appointments, as soon as you shave anywhere you have sugared, you will be back to square one as if you have not sugared.

Avoid sweating, tight clothing, pools, and hot tubs for  24 hours following sugaring. This includes working out, hot tubbing, sauna, or intercourse.

Exfoliate 3-4x/ week with a soft body brush or exfoliating hand mitt. Wait 24 hours after your sugaring treatment as the sugar will have already exfoliated the existing dead skin. One of the greatest benefits of sugaring is that it does not adhere to live skin.

I recommend Fur and PCA products that will soothe, hydrate, and treat the skin as well as prevent ingrown hairs or scarring, along with treating those already existing.

Avoid lace underwear or any tight undergarments that can irritate the skin after sugaring. I recommend seamless, moisture-wicking,  panties and going commando at night.  

If you experience ingrown hairs, you never want to directly exfoliate the zone where the skin is tender, red, or raised. Do not pick or exfoliate over bumps or inflamed skin with gloves or brushes. Avoid picking or squeezing any ingrown that might pop up or exist already.

Please contact me and I can have you come in for a post-treatment to help treat any irritation and ingrown hairs and avoid damage to the skin. 

PLEASE BE AWARE: It is common to experience bumps or minor whiteheads following your initial sugaring session. These effects typically resolve within a few days. To prevent bacterial spread and skin damage, avoid picking. Consistent sugaring maintenance and proper aftercare will help minimize post-sugaring irritation.

Never use scrubs or body washes with granules or micro-beads as they will spread bacteria, and cause micro-tears on the skin. You also want to avoid body products with synthetic fragrances as that will promote irritation and rosacea, especially on more sensitive skin types.
