Avoiding Hot Showers and Baths

After certain treatments, such as waxing, laser hair removal, or chemical peels, clients should avoid hot showers, baths, or soaking in hot water for at least 24-48 hours. Hot water can increase skin sensitivity, exacerbate redness, and delay the healing process. At SOS Wax and Skincare, clients should be advised to use lukewarm or cool water when bathing and to limit the duration of showers to minimize irritation. This guidance helps to protect the skin during the critical recovery period, ensuring that clients experience minimal discomfort and achieve optimal results from their treatment. Providing clients with this advice supports a smoother and more comfortable recovery process, reducing the risk of post-treatment complications and promoting better skin health.
