Maintaining Your Body Hair While in Quarantine

April 14, 2020

Body hair is so normal and nothing to be ashamed of and while my job is to remove it, it’s totally okay to let it grow or just leave it in it’s natural state…. which is what I am doing during this quarantine haha

For those of us that remove our body hair by waxing or laser hair removal, I want to share a few ways to keep it tamed and maintained during these very weird times.

Let it grow
Like I said, there’s nothing wrong with letting your hair grow. At least this way you’ll be ready for your next wax when we’re allowed to reopen.

Shave it
I am only recommending this if you are doing laser hair removal. If you’re one of my laser clients, just keep shaving!

Trim it
Trimming is a great option. This will help keep your growth under control and as long as you’re trimming it down to let’s say… half an inch? You’ll be ready for your next wax (again, when we’re allowed to reopen lol)
Trimming can be done with an electric trimmer or a small pair of brow scissors.

Shave and Trim
My personal favourite way to maintain your Brazilian is shave your bikini line and trim the rest of it. This way you’ll feel maintained and clean but won’t go through so much grow back irritation (helloooo razor burn!) or pain when you’re ready to wax again.

Exfoliate
Exfoliating is great way to make sure your hair grows soft and your skin stays smooth. We have amazing loofah soaps available for $11 and a great dry brush for $60. You can read about our Prana Dry Brush here

Keep moisturized
Keeping your skin exfoliated and moisturized will help prevent rough stubble and ingrown hairs. Our personal favourite body butter is Hadaka Butterful. It’s made with Marula Oil, Shea Butter, and Vitamin E. It’s so rich and has a delicious light citrus scent. We have it available for $35.
If you’re suffering from ingrowns, make sure you’re exfoliating and using an ingrown cream like our Lycon Ingrown X-It, available for $19.99

DIY Waxing
If you’re hair is becoming too much for you to handle, we’ve created a DIY Wax Kit for small body parts like your face (upper lips, sideburns, chin), your underarms, your hands + fingers, and your feet + toes. Our DIY Wax Kits are $39, include step-by-step instructions and video, and even a couple of free gifts!
I do not recommend using this kit for your brows and/or Brazilian
