There's a family function coming up and i wanted to get waxing done. Im 16 weeks. My skin feels more sensitive now so wondering if its safe during pregnancy or better to skip. Anyone got it done?
I totally understand wanting to feel clean and groomed during this time! Just ask them to be very gentle as our skin can tear or bruise easily right now.
Yes, waxing is safe, but your skin is much more sensitive now. Pick a clean salon with good hygiene to avoid any infections, especially since you don't have time for extra doctor visits.
My doctor said waxing is fine, but the increased blood flow makes it more painful than usual. Avoid any chemical hair removal creams and make sure the wax isn't too hot.
It is safe, but honestly, just do it yourself at home or call a local parlour lady if you want to save money. Just make sure she uses clean strips and normal wax.
Yes, absolutely safe! I got waxed right before my delivery and it was totally fine, though I did cry a little because of the extra sensitivity. You do what makes you feel good, mama.
