Expert advice on what to do in lieu of your usual waxing hair removal routine during the coronavirus pandemic.

Waxing hair removal, is a personal choice. But whatever hair removal routine you choose, chances are it has changed at least somewhat due to the spread of Covid 19.

As businesses have been forced to close indefinitely, those who have committed to a waxing regimen might wonder how to maintain their progress without undoing all the time they’ve put toward all those years of waxing.

Ideally, we should be taking this time to let our hair go through its natural growth cycle. In other words, do not shave. Take this time to grow out hair so you are ready for a wax when you can go back out, Since most public places and social gatherings are closed, this is a great time to grow hair out.

It is typically frowned upon by waxing therapist to shave between waxes, as waxing removes hair from below the skin surface and promotes a slower, lighter reduced hair growth. Waxing removes your body hair from the roots – absolutely thoroughly, hygienically and virtually painlessly, with long-lasting results. Waxing Me Pretty is in favour of letting the hair grow and refraining from shaving if possible.

We recommend trimming if necessary, you will be better off in the long run of you refrain from shaving or any other hair removal. Allowing hair to reach its full length will make the next waxing experience more effective, [because] there won’t be any little hairs trying to get through.  

Maintaining your regular skin care and exfoliation routine is highly important. Exfoliate, exfoliate, and exfoliate! Washing and exfoliating your skin is the best way to prevent ugly bumps and stubborn ingrown hairs; before and after your wax. There are many ways to exfoliate but at Waxing Me Pretty, we feel that dry exfoliating works the best! Using a dry or slightly damp soft-bristled brush, gently move in a circular motion around the waxed area. This is a great and aggressive way to remove dead skin cells, rejuvenate and renew the skin.

Hair removal is low on the list of things to truly be concerned about at the present, but the most important thing to remember is that this is temporary, and by following these exfoliating and maintenance tips, you’ll be in good shape once you’re able to start getting back to your regular appointments.
