Waxing is a popular method of hair removal that can leave your skin smooth and hair-free. However, it can also lead to the development of bumps, which are small, red, and inflamed. These bumps can be uncomfortable and unsightly, and they can sometimes lead to scarring. Fortunately, there are a number of things you can do to avoid bumps after waxing.
One of the most important things you can do is to exfoliate your skin before waxing. Exfoliation removes dead skin cells, which can help to prevent ingrown hairs, which are a common cause of bumps. You should also avoid waxing your skin if it is sunburned, irritated, or infected. If you have sensitive skin, you may want to test a small area of skin before waxing your entire body.
