Pre-Electrolysis Care

Always arrive at your appointment with freshly washed skin. This is important to your safety and comfort during the service! 

 Always tell your electrologist the truth and disclose all health conditions when completing the forms provided.

Drink plenty of water throughout the entire course of your treatment sessions for optimal hair removal results.  Try avoiding chocolate, caffeine, and alcohol 24 hours before treatment to promote further hydration.

 Stop using retinoids at least 1 week before treatment. If you are unsure if what you’re using has retinoids in it, double-check the ingredient list and reach out if you have any questions. 

 Never bleach hair right before an appointment. The harder the hair is to see, the harder it is to remove. If you bleach in between appointments, allow enough time for your hair to grow back in so your electrologist can see your roots {approx 1/16” to 1/8”} 

 Stay out of the sun for at least 48 hours before electrolysis treatment to avoid dilation of the blood vessels. Always use sunscreen.

Refrain from applying make-up, deodorants, or any other products that may clog the pores of the area being treated.
