2nd Hollywood wax

4 replies

Hi

I posted on her not long ago about my first ever Hollywood wax and got a lot of advice so thought I’d ask again..

I had my second wax nearly two weeks ago (Thursday ) therapist was good no bruising had awful bruising first time and I felt she did a good job.. she did say I could have maybe waited 5 weeks not 4 as had some tiny hairs she couldn’t get even with tweezers on the pubic area.

first time round I didn’t really get any regrowth till about 2.5 weeks.. this time I’m very stubbly already itchy and have a few spots not a lot albeit a lot less than shaving.

I thought the regrowth was meant to slow down the more you get waxed ? Did I go back too early?

I haven’t done anything different from the first time and have been gently exfoliating as I did before

Thanks x

I think the regrowth slowing chat is nonsense.

I'm a hairy mary and it makes no difference whatsoever. Still grows back at the same rate.

The regrowth does get slower, and some will stop as you kill the hair follicles but that takes years.
To get a really smooth, and long lasting finish you need to let every hair grow out.

I recommend an epilaptor.

It probably depends which stage in the life cycle of the hair follicle your at when you have it done.

I think they all synchronise eventually.

It does slow down but not after 2 goes! Didn't you notice how much quicker it was second time around?
