Pre-Treatment Care
ELECTROLYSIS
Shaving is usually okay if it is done no later than 5-7 days prior to the scheduled appointment (in some cases, this time may be shortened). Tweezing or any other method of temporary hair removal would be longer, such as 2-3 weeks (some cases this time may also be shortened) and most of the temporary methods should be stopped once you begin electrolysis treatments. For optimal results before you use any type of temporary hair removal method you should always discuss it first with your Electrologist whenever possible.
