    White patches that won't tan

    Occasionally I get a client hat when I am tanning they may have a small patch of skin that doesn't seem to take as much of the tan that the rest of their skin. I am sure I read somewhere that this can be a fungus on their skin that they are unaware of,I have never had anyone complain about it...

    Hollywood waxing-it's been a while!

    Some people are just prone to ingrown hairs I think,tea tree products are good for ingrown hair and I have heard magnesium sulphate for the really stubborn ones :)

    Hollywood waxing-it's been a while!

    hi Elizabeth, I use jasmine oil under the hot wax,it gives a little barrier between the skin and wax but still grabs the hair effectively,although only the tiniest amount is needed. Do you exfoliate and moisturise the bikini area between waxes? This can help with ingrown hairs :)
