What are the red bums after waxing?
Answer:
these bumps are actually trapped hair inside the hair follicle. After shaving or waxing, the left over short hairs gets trapped under the skin, (either it curls up, and grow downward, or your skin will cover your hair follicle and clog them up, so the hair is unable to push itself out thru the skin), and that is what forms pus, like zits. (If you pop them, you can see hair attached to the pus.gross I know). The condition is called folliculitis.
keep your skin moisturized and that should allow the skin to remain supple and the hair to push itself out.
They are like tiny zits... its normal and they are gonna get real itchy... There is creams out there for them but Im not sure what there called
those are irritation bumps. they are caused by irritated skin, and the more you wax, the more your skin gets used to it, and the bumps normally go away with time.
they go away after awhile, I know some wax kits give you and oil too, so you could put that on when you finish waxing (and washing) Parissa has a nice one in a blue glass bottle, although small, you might consider buying a seperate larger one
