If you’re like me, you’ve been hiding under layers of warm clothing for the past few months, fantasizing about hibernation until the temps climb above freezing. Perhaps over the course of the winter, you’ve become a little bit lazy (gasp!) with your typical hair removal routine. Let’s face it: It’s easier to maintain smooth, hair-free legs when you’ve got your favorite pair of shorts or bikini as motivation. But if your preferred method of hair removal is waxing, did you know it’s actually crucial to keep up with your appointments year round? Here’s why maintaining a regular waxing routine is so important:

Waxing combats dry winter skin
Chances are you probably suffer from dry skin during the winter months if you live in a cold climate. The dry, frigid air, coupled with the blasting heat in your home can take their toll on your skin. If your legs are rough and flaking despite vigilant daily moisturizing, perhaps it’s time to think about stepping up your exfoliation routine.
Waxing is one of the best ways out there to effectively exfoliate your skin, and help fight against dryness during the cold winter months. It encourages faster turnover of dead skin cells, and regular appointments actually help to improve skin condition, leaving you with the smooth skin you’ve been missing since temps dropped below freezing. So if you’re suffering from lizard legs, scheduling a waxing appointment today can help your skin get back on track.

Optimal hair removal results
Have you noticed that by the end of the summer your legs are staying smooth and hair-free for longer periods of time? Maybe you only have to schedule appointments for hair removal every four weeks, as opposed to every two. That’s because you’ve kept up with your regular waxing routine! Just because winter has reared its ugly head doesn’t mean that you should stop your appointments. In fact, if you maintain regular waxes year round, you’ll reap the benefits in the long term.

Our experts say that you should think twice before you reach for the depilatories or razor this winter if you typically have your legs waxed. The main reason is that your hair is going to grow in more coarsely and faster than it would if you were waxing regularly. In a sense, you would be undoing what you (and your favorite esthetician!) worked so hard to achieve for the majority of the year: smooth, hair-free legs! We all know that regular waxing means slower, finer hair growth. So over time, you would actually be doing yourself (and your pocketbook) a favor by booking routine waxes throughout the winter months as well. Some of our regular customers can go as long as eight weeks between appointments – who doesn’t want smooth legs for eight full weeks?
