Start with cleansing

The comfort takes the priority when we talk about the bikini area. Excessive sweating can lead to infection, so you should always keep the area clean. Pick a mild cleanser, which is not very harsh on this sensitive area and will keep it infection-free at the same time.

Points to remember

Here are a few points you must remember to make the procedure less painful and more hygienic:

  • The aesthetician should apply the wax in the direction of the hair, and pull it out from the opposite direction, otherwise, your hair growth will go for a toss. This also makes the procedure less painful.
  • Always stress upon using a pre-wax lotion, which helps minimise pulling and tugging of the skin during waxing; and post-wax lotion, which disinfects the area after waxing.
  • Make sure fresh wax is being used for the bikini area.
  • Ask the aesthetician to use a disposal spatula to avoid infection.
  • Avoid using razors for that sensitive area as it can cause infection, increase ingrown hair and make the hair growth dense.
