Shaving in between waxes can disrupt the waxing process. Shaving alters hair growth cycles, making future waxing sessions less effective and more painful. Instead, allow hair to reach the optimal length (about a quarter-inch) and use soothing lotions to manage discomfort and maintain smooth skin longer.
