Back waxing aftercare advice is so important, as this male grooming treatment is without a doubt the most popular male body waxing treatment.
For most guys the treatment is very quick and easy with no or very little reaction on the skin afterwards, but for virgin waxers and for clients waxing during the summer it often needs a little more care and attention to get the best from your waxing treatment and to. So rain your skin.
So it is worth bearing in mind what simple waxing aftercare steps you should give to your clients to follow , to keep everything in order.
These are the basic guidelines I give to clients and it does make a huge difference....
1. Keep the back clean, sweat free and as cool as possible after your back wax treatment: so avoid excercise/ gyms/ sauna and any heat treatments, ie sunbeds etc
2. Wear a clean cotton loose fitting t shirt after your back wax: bring a clean one with you to change into after your waxing it keeps skin clean and bacteria free.
3. Avoid gym, exercise, swimming or sports for 24-48 hours: Freshly waxed skin has open pores which are more more prone to bacteria and infection.
4. Use a cleansing shower/skin wash that contains some anti bacterial properties: we retail some but we happily recommend high street options that may be more affordable.
5. Use a suitable moisturiser for the areas that you can reach: not always easy to reach all of your back but great for shoulders and the hairline which often react more more and will benefit from some moisturiser. Products containing soothing gels etc is often one of the best products to apply to sensitive skin and will really help to settle it just after waxing, we apply a refreshing gel after chest waxing and all our intimate waxing treatments.
5. After a few days start to gently exfoliate the skin using an exfoliating wash cloth: GENTLE is the key word!!.. Keep it gentle and 2/3 times a week, NOT every day!
