In this blog post, we will outline the steps you need to take after waxing your vag and how to prevent any potential pain or discomfort. We hope you find this post helpful!
Cleaning your wax area
After waxing, make sure to clean the area well. This will help prevent any staining or infection. To clean the area, use a mild soap and warm water. Make sure to avoid rubbing the area too much, as this can cause irritation. Pat the area dry with a paper towel.
Tips for preventing infection
If you’ve waxed recently, there’s a good chance you’ve applied heated wax to your genitals. To prevent infection, follow these tips:
-Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water before and after waxing. Hot wax can irritate the skin, making it easier for bacteria to enter the body.
-Avoid touching the area of the body where you’ve been waxed unless you’re using a sanitizing cream or gel. This includes avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth.
-Don’t share razors, cups, towels, or otheritems with others. If you do get an infection, it will be hard to treat because everyone who comes into contact with the infected person will also become infected.
-If you develop a feverfew infection (a type of bacterial vaginosis), don’t douche or use antibiotics since these treatments can make the infection worse. Instead, drink plenty of fluids and take over-the-counter pain relievers as needed.
How to care for a freshly waxed Vagina
After waxing, your vagina may feel dry and irritated. Here are some tips to help soothe and care for it:
1. Apply an ointment or cream right after you wax to help protect the skin.
2. Massage a light emollient into the skin every day for a few days to soften and hydrate it.
3. Apply a silk pad to the lips of the vagina twice a day (once in the morning and once at night) to keep them moist.
4. Use a water-based lubricant during sexual activity to help avoid friction and irritation.
Wiping down your Vagina
After waxing, it is important to wipe down your vagina to remove any leftover wax. To do this, start by wiping from the front to the back of the vagina. Make sure to get inside and around all of the folds. Then, continue wiping down towards the anus. Finally, use a tissue to clean up any stray waxes or debris.
Using feminine hygiene products after waxing
After waxing, it is important to use feminine hygiene products to prevent any irritation or odor. These products will help keep your vulva clean and free of bacteria. Some of the most common women’s hygiene products that can be used after waxing include water, antimicrobial soap, an ointment such as aloe vera gel or witch hazel, and a towel. Always read the label before using a product and avoid contact with your eyes.
