Hollywood waxing (or any intimate waxing)

Just returned from my second ever Hollywood wax at 35+1 weeks pregnant and feeling a bit sensitive.

Can anyone give me some tips or advice to help speed up the time I'll be a bit sore?

try cooling aftersun type stuff..

knickers off and air to area

remember that when you are pregnant your skin is much more sensitive
and each wax it gets easier ..i look like a plucked chicken with attractive red rash for about 2 hrs now ..used to be 2 days !

ibuprofen and sudocrem! or tea tree oil also helps it heal faster.

No ibuprofen if you are pregnant. Take care with essential oils too.

I'd just use sudocreme, your bound to be more sensitive at the moment.

Did they use paper strips to remove the wax?.

Pure aloe gel, pop it in the fridge before if you want it cold. Do not exfoliate for a few days.
