Yes, but timing matters. Gently exfoliating 24–48 hours before your appointment can help remove dead skin cells and prepare the area for waxing.

Avoid aggressive exfoliation immediately before your appointment because irritated skin can be more sensitive during waxing.

It’s best to arrive with clean, dry skin and avoid applying heavy lotions, body oils, or creams immediately before your appointment. 

These products can create a barrier between the hair and wax.

Avoid tanning or excessive sun exposure immediately before your waxing appointment.

Sunburned, irritated, or compromise skin should not be waxed.

Wear whatever makes you comfortable!

Many clients prefer loose, breathable clothing – especially after a Brazilian wax – to help minimize friction against freshly waxed skin.

Tight leggings, restrictive, underwear, and other snug clothing may feel uncomfortable immediately after waxing.

Arriving with clean skin is recommended, but there’s no need to over-clean, scrub aggressively, or exfoliate immediately before your appointment.

A normal shower is perfectly fine avoid applying heavy lotions, oils, or fragranced products to the area afterward. I also provide wipes to freshen up with upon arrival if needed.
