After the Wax

What now, you ask? You got the wax, you’re hairless, ready to go! But not so fast. There is some upkeep with waxing. 1. Exfoliate. Helps prevent ingrown hairs. Try Jane Iredale’s Magic Mitt.

During the Wax

Last week, we prepped for a wax. This week, time to go through and actually get the wax. Whether it’s underarms, legs, the best Brazilian wax Pittsburgh offers, it’s all the same process. 1. Go to the bathroom. Last thing you want is to be surprised when they pull a strip off and you wet
