WAXERS… LISTEN UP!!  💜

We know your all wondering what your going to do, how you will cope without your waxing appointment or how your thinking your going to come out of lock down looking like Chewbacca 🤣🙈

Ellen Kavanagh Jones of Waxperts salon says that shaving right now would set you back about three waxes… “It’s taken so many waxes to get them where they are, where the hair growth is sparser and finer”, she says. “You’re not going out anywhere, nobody’s going to be looking at you, so just grab the jeans and forget that the hair is growing.”

Why exactly should we keep our hands off the razor?

“If you think of it as pruning a tree or plant”, Ellen explains. “When you’re just cutting it you’re generating that growth, so you get a bit of a stronger growth and when you’re shaving you’re slicing the hair so that it’s blunt-ended. When you’re waxing you’re removing the hair from the root. Eventually, some of those hairs are just going to die off. Because the hair has to grow again, it grows from the very start of the cycle of the hair.”

Instead of worrying about hair growing back, Ellen adds “use the time to look at the skin more than the hair. Keep the skin nice and moisturised, exfoliated”. She suggests making your own at-home exfoliator by mixing granulated sugar with a shower gel or body oil.

Leave those hairs ladies… We are fully prepared that we will be super busy in our waxing rooms after lock down 🙊
