5 Waxing Tips from Moderne Beauty & Aesthetics

Hey sunshine lovers! Summer in San Jose is all about feeling confident and carefree, whether you're hitting the beach, lounging by the pool, or rocking your favorite sundress. 


At Moderne Beauty & Aesthetics, we want to help you achieve that silky-smooth skin you dream of, so you can fully embrace the season with confidence.


Here are our top 5 tips for a smoother summer with waxing:


  1. Prep Your Skin for the Perfect Wax: Before your waxing session, gently exfoliate your skin a day or two beforehand to remove dead skin cells and prevent ingrown hairs. Avoid using any harsh products or lotions on the day of your appointment.
  2. Let it Grow (Just a Little): For the best waxing results, let your hair grow to about the length of a grain of rice. This gives the wax something to grab onto, ensuring a cleaner and more effective removal.
  3. Hydration is Key: Keeping your skin hydrated is essential for a smooth wax and healthy skin overall. Drink plenty of water and moisturize regularly, especially in the days leading up to your appointment.
  4. Trust the Professionals (and the Right Wax): Choosing the right waxing salon and the right type of wax can make all the difference in your experience. At Moderne Beauty & Aesthetics, we exclusively use Berodin soft and hard wax, known for its gentle yet effective hair removal and minimal discomfort. Our experienced estheticians are dedicated to providing you with a comfortable and personalized waxing experience.
  5. Aftercare is Just as Important: After your waxing session, avoid hot baths or showers, as well as excessive sweating for the next 24 hours. Apply a soothing aloe vera gel or lotion to calm any irritation and prevent ingrown hairs.

At Moderne Beauty & Aesthetics, we believe that everyone deserves to feel beautiful and confident in their own skin. 

Whether you're looking for a quick bikini wax before a beach vacation or a full Brazilian wax for a special occasion, we're here to help you achieve your smoothest, most radiant skin yet.
