How to Ensure Less Pain During Brazilian or Bikini Waxing Session?
To make sure you will not have much painful experience during your waxing, go for a waxing session when you have proper hair growth at least 1/4 inch long. The longer hair growth you have, the more pain you will have. Don’t shave it some days or a week before you go. Just be sure to hold a comfortable position and get prepared mentally to have some pain. Just take a deep breath before your salon expert starts pulling the strip or hard wax.
Don’t go for waxing when your red days (periods) are around. Avoid swimming or sexual activity just after the waxing session. Consider a painkiller or apply a numbing cream. Since your skin will be more sensitive after waxing, wear breathable and loose-fitting clothes to prevent severe irritation, itching, and redness.
