So what do you do after you've been waxed? As with all of my clients, I suggested to Aaron that he exfoliates daily. It's also important for him to use sunscreen whenever his waxed areas are exposed to the sun. For some of my clients, I suggest them purchasing a product that helps reduce ingrowns and the bumps and redness after waxing. Because men have more oil glands, it is common that they break out after waxing, and in some cases have ingrown hairs develop. I always suggest they wait a few hours, or the next day before they work out. However, if they have to, they could apply some corn starch powder to absorb the moisture so they won't be as likely to break out or have itchiness. It's important to avoid the sun, and hot tubs and sun tanning booths because the skin is more sensitive . See, it wasn't that bad. Waxing can be pleasurable. (I didn't have a problem this time, that's for sure.) Good!
