Hair Length: Ensure the hair length is ideal, typically about 0.5 to 1 cm, for an effective waxing or sugaring treatment, both for men and women.
Hydration: Hydrate the skin well before the treatment, but avoid applying lotions or oils directly before the session, both for men and women.
Pain Management: Consider using pain relievers, such as ibuprofen or paracetamol, 30 minutes before the treatment to reduce any discomfort, both for men and women.
Avoid Heat Sources: Avoid warm showers, saunas, and steam rooms for 24 hours after the treatment to prevent skin irritation, both for men and women.
Protection from Sunlight: Protect the waxed or sugared skin from direct sunlight and use a sunscreen with SPF, both for men and women.
Avoid Tight Clothing: Wear loose clothing to avoid friction on the treated skin and to reduce ingrown hairs, both for men and women.
Exfoliation after a Few Days: Begin regular exfoliation a few days after the treatment to prevent ingrown hairs and keep the skin smooth, both for men and women.
Hydration: Keep the skin hydrated with a mild, moisturizing lotion to maintain healthy skin and reduce irritation, both for men and women.
Avoid Moisturizers and Oils: Do not use moisturizers, oils, or makeup on your eyebrows and eyelashes on the day of the treatment.
Remove Contact Lenses: If you wear contact lenses, it’s best to remove them before the treatment.
Communicate Any Concerns: Inform your technician about any allergies, eye conditions, or recent eye surgeries.
Avoid Water and Steam: Avoid getting your eyebrows and eyelashes wet and stay away from steam-rich environments like saunas or hot showers for the first 24-48 hours after the treatment.
Skip Mascara and Eye Makeup: Do not use mascara or eye makeup for at least 24-48 hours after the treatment.
Avoid Rubbing or Touching: Avoid rubbing or touching your eyebrows and eyelashes to prevent irritation or displacement of the lifted hairs.
Use Oil-Free Products: Use oil-free cleansers and makeup removers around the treated area to maintain the lift longer.
Regular Brushing: Brush your eyelashes and eyebrows regularly with a clean brush to keep them neat and in place.
Hydration: After the first 24-48 hours, you can apply a nourishing eyebrow serum or eyelash conditioner to keep the hairs hydrated and healthy.
Sleep on Your Back: Try to sleep on your back for the first few nights after the treatment to avoid flattening your lashes.
Avoid Heat: Avoid direct heat, such as blow dryers or heated styling tools, to prolong the effects of the treatment.
