Leg Waxing – 4 Pre Leg Wax Tips

Tuesday, August 17th, 2010

Rachel here from La Spa with some top tips for waxing your legs

The night before leg waxing make sure to exfoliate the skin and then moisturise. This will help any hairs (not visible to the naked eye) that may be trapped slightly under the skin to pop up and be visible for the leg wax the next day.

Additionally by moisturising you are keeping the skin hydrated which will help the hairs not to snap during leg waxing and will allow to be fully removed with the wax strip. Also dry skin when being waxed can sometimes mean more wax gets stuck to the skin in the process.

On the day of the leg wax appointment at a day spa do not apply anything to the skin as creams etc may inhibit the wax attaching to the hair.

If getting tanned make sure to get your leg waxing done 2 days in advance as you cannot have tan done on the same day as leg waxing and if you apply your tan before waxing legs, it will be sure to come off!!!
