Waxing: preparation, treatment, and aftercare
Updated: 3 days ago
Waxing is about more than just removing body hair. It's also about comfort, personal attention and proper skincare. That's exactly what makes Body Care voor Mannen different.
Personal attention – you're not just another client
At Body Care voor Mannen, you're never just another client. I take the time to give you a careful, unhurried treatment. Every man and every skin type is different. That's why I take your individual needs into account and make sure you feel comfortable, even if it's your first waxing experience.
Proper skin preparation
At Body Care voor Mannen, I don't simply start waxing straight away. I carefully prepare your skin using Italwax Pre-Wax Lotion with aloe vera. This lotion cleanses, soothes and prepares the skin for waxing, helping to make the treatment as comfortable and effective as possible.
Wax specifically suited to men's hair
Men's body hair is often thicker and coarser. That's why I use waxing products specifically suited to this type of hair.
These products provide a better grip on the hair, meaning the same area generally needs fewer applications. This is gentler on the skin and helps minimise unnecessary irritation.
Skincare immediately after waxing
Your skin also receives proper care after the treatment. I remove any remaining wax residue and apply Italwax After-Wax Lotion Azulene. This lotion helps soothe redness and irritation, leaving your skin feeling soft and well cared for.
What should you avoid after waxing?
After waxing, your skin is temporarily more sensitive. Mild redness or small red spots are normal and usually disappear on their own. For the first 24 to 48 hours after waxing, please follow these aftercare guidelines:
Heat and sweating: Avoid hot baths, hot showers, saunas, steam rooms and intense exercise. Heat and perspiration can irritate sensitive skin.
Sun exposure and tanning beds: Avoid direct sunlight and tanning beds. Your skin is more susceptible to sunburn and pigmentation changes.
Friction and tight clothing: Avoid tight or synthetic clothing that rubs against the treated skin. Choose loose, breathable clothing, preferably cotton.
Skincare products: Do not use deodorant on freshly waxed armpits. Avoid perfumed creams, alcohol-based products and other skincare products that may cause irritation.
Swimming pools and the sea: Avoid chlorinated swimming pools and seawater. These can irritate freshly waxed skin and potentially cause inflammation.
Sexual activity: Avoid sexual activity that causes friction or pressure on the treated skin. Especially after intimate waxing, friction, perspiration and bacteria can increase the risk of irritation or inflammation.
Exfoliation: Do not exfoliate your skin for the first 3 days. Only resume gentle exfoliation once your skin has completely settled and is no longer irritated. Gentle exfoliation afterwards can help prevent ingrown hairs.
After-wax care: Use a suitable after-wax lotion to protect, hydrate, and soothe the skin. Avoid thick, greasy, or fragranced body creams, especially on freshly waxed intimate areas. These can irritate sensitive skin and clog hair follicles. My after-wax care lotion is available for € 20,- per bottle.
