Preparing for a Brazilian Wax “Before”

  • Hair Growth must be at least 4-6 weeks
  • Please do not do any hair removal or trimming prior to your appointment
  • If you are on your menstrual cycle please reschedule your appointment
  • Hydrate Brazilian area prior to your appointment
  • Skin is more sensitive 3-5 days before/after menstrual cycle
  • Do not use a tanning bed 24 hours prior to your service
  • We will not perform your service if you are under the influence of drugs or alcohol
  • We do not provide services for male Brazilians


What to know… “After” –  48 Hours of rest is best

  • Don’t touch freshly waxed skin, as this can encourage irritation or small pimples
  • You may have small bumps and slight sensitivity for 24 hours
  • Don’t wear tight fitting undergarments for the next few days
  • Don’t take a hot bath for the rest of the day, take warm showers
  • No tanning beds, saunas or steam rooms for the next 24 hours
  • Sexual activity should be avoided for at least 24 – 48 hours
  • Exercise may increase your risk of irritation and possible infection
  • Avoid perfumed washes or lotions in the are
  • Ongoing Treatment After a Bikini or Brazilian Wax


1. Moisturize the area

Although you need to keep your skin moisturized after a Brazilian wax, care should be taken to avoid any product which contains a lot of perfume or which is so heavy it might block your pores and cause a breakout. A light lotion containing witch hazel or aloe vera is ideal for ongoing use.

2. Exfoliate

To prevent ingrown hairs and red bumps as the hair grows back keep exfoliating the area with a gentle fine grain exfoliating product or a soft clean loofah sponge, 3 or 4 times a week. Use a gentle touch rather than scrubbing away at this sensitive area. You may even find that using a clean towel mitt in the shower will help keep the skin clear.

3. If the Initial Irritation Lasts

Most people will have some redness and irritation for the first 24 hours after waxing and this may last up to two days if you have very sensitive skin but if you experience soreness after that consult a doctor to check whether you have an allergy to the products that were used.

 *Some antibiotics, birth control and blood pressure medications can make your Brazilian more sensitive. If you are under the care of a Physician please consult with your Doctor prior to making an appointment.  If you are taking any medications or have any allergies please let us know prior to your appointment!
