Infection from Brazilian Wax?

Question

I got my first Brazilian wax yesterday and the next morning I still have redness (as expected) but I also have these white head bumps. They look like pimples and I was googling and maybe thought it was a bacterial infection from the wax. How can I treat this at home? Any remedies?

Answer

That’s normal. It’s just irritated/sensitive skin. Remember you had hot wax put on thin skin then ripped off. It should go away within the next day or so. Plus if you grew all of your hair out then it’s thick and a lot was ripped out. It gets easier with every appointment because your skin gets used to it and your hair grows back thinner.
