Winter in Scarborough and Toronto brings cold temperatures, low humidity, and dry indoor air. These conditions can affect your skin — and your waxing results. Winter waxing requires extra preparation and aftercare to keep your skin smooth, calm, and comfortable.

Why Waxing Feels Different in Winter

  • Cold air dries out the skin
  • Dry skin makes waxing more sensitive
  • Lack of moisture can increase irritation
  • Skin needs longer recovery time

How to Prepare Your Skin for Winter Waxing

  • Moisturize daily to prevent dryness
  • Gently exfoliate 24–48 hours before waxing
  • Avoid waxing on cracked or irritated skin
  • Wear loose clothing to your appointment

Winter Waxing Aftercare Tips

  • Apply a soothing moisturizer after waxing
  • Avoid hot showers for 24 hours
  • Protect waxed areas from cold wind
  • Skip exfoliation for a few days

Benefits of Regular Waxing During Winter

Many clients stop waxing in winter, but staying consistent actually helps:

  • Hair grows back finer over time
  • Skin stays smoother year-round
  • Spring and summer maintenance becomes easier
