Baby, it’s getting cold outside! When it gets to be the middle of winter, it’s tempting to forget about our regular waxing routine. After all, you don’t even want to think about yourself in a bikini when sitting in front of the fire, wrapped in a blanket, drinking eggnog! However, keeping up with your waxing routine is important, even when the weather outside is frightful!

Here are the benefits to maintaining a regular hair removal routine all year long:

Longer results. When you use a professional spa for your waxing needs, hair is removed deep in the root at the hair follicle. Your skin remains hair-free and smooth longer than shaving. Shaving just cuts the surface hairs which means the hair grows back quickly whereas waxing lasts for several weeks because of the root being removed.

The benefit of exfoliation. Every time you enjoy waxing treatment at Square One Salon, you get the benefit of the exfoliating treatment that comes with waxing. Wax not only removes the unwanted hair but also removes that top layer of dead, dry skin that often gives your skin a ‘scaly’ look in the winter. Exfoliating also helps encourage new skin cell production and boosts collagen protein for healthier, younger-looking skin. When you keep a regular schedule for hair removal, it begins to weaken the hair follicles, decreasing regrowth of unwanted hair. When your hair follicles don’t have time to repair, thinner hair grows in, making regrowth less noticeable and easier to remove with each waxing to that area. If you stop your waxing routine, it gives the follicles time to repair themselves which means thicker regrowth. The more you wax in a particular area, the less regrowth, and oftentimes hair growth may stop completely. Summer will be here before you know it, but if you continue your waxing routine through the winter, you’ll enjoy smooth, silky soft skin all year long. When the weather turns warm again, you’ll be ready to break out those shorts, summer dresses, and swimsuits. The holidays mean shopping for friends, family, and loved ones for that perfect gift. Give the gift of a so that they can enjoy a day at our salon with any of our fabulous services or treatments that mean the most to them. If you need to restart your hair removal routine, make an appointment at any of our locations. You can or call or visit one of our directly.
