Wait Before You Wax?

If you are thinking about waxing the bikini area, you should try the wax on another area of the body first. You don't want to use the wax on the bikini area only to find out that the skin will get irritated. The legs or arms are great places to start. Only use a small amount of the wax when you are testing the area. If you see any red bumps or the skin begins to itch, then don't use the wax on the bikini area.


Why do you get bumps after waxing?

it is normal for your skin to go red and bumpy after waxing for a certain amount of time, however, if it persists contact your doctor. this happens because you are pulling the hair follicles out of the skin. when waxing for the first time remember to test a skin reaction to see if you are allergic, best places will be your legs and arms. Only use wax strips that do not cause iritation and use them in the correct places e.g. use leg wax for the legs and not the face.

How do you get rid of red bumps on your armpits?

i have that problem too and I'm trying to get rid of it cause everyone else's armpits just look like regular skin. you should Google products that help it go away. i use bikini zone products for the same red bumps along my bikini line, and the bumps are just because i have sensitive skin and the razor irritates it. make sure you are shaving in the right direction, but i don't think any methods will work better then a product such as bikini zone! Also i have heard of this product called Tend Skin, i really want to get it. i have never tried, it but it seems to work for a lot of other people
