Nervous? Don’t be! Here are some tips for first-time waxing:

• Exfoliate your bikini area the night before your wax. This will remove any dead skin cells and allow the wax to stick the best.
• Don’t get a bikini wax three or four days before or after your period. You are the most sensitive during these times, so the pain may be increased.
• Take an over-the-counter painkiller like ibuprofen or acetaminophen about 20 minutes before your appointment to head off some of the pain.
• Relax! The more nervous you are, the more you will tense up, and this is not going to make things any easier. Just breathe deeply and relax. Take a deep breath in when the wax is applied, and then breathe out when the strip is pulled.
• Your hair needs to be about 1/4″ long so the wax can grab it. If you have been shaving or using a hair removal cream, you will need to let the hair grow a bit before you get your bikini wax.
• Don’t wear tight jeans or panties. After your bikini wax, you don’t want to wear anything too constricting, as your bikini area is going to be sensitive. Avoiding tight clothing for a day or so can help you avoid ingrown hairs as well.
• Be sure to shower before your bikini wax, but not immediately before. You want to be clean, but, if you are still damp, the wax won’t be as effective.
•  Keep in mind that your first bikini wax will be the most uncomfortable. After that, the hair grows back in finer and thinner, and future waxing is easier.
