Does waxing cause ingrown hairs?

No, waxing prevents ingrown hairs. Some women have serious problems with ingrown hairs, though, so it doesn't matter what kind of depilation you use on them. One way to prevent ingrown hairs is to use a washcloth to wash briskly in the shower. Or towel off briskly after bathing.

I’ve been going to my technician since I moved to Tampa over a year and a half ago once

“ I’ve been going to my technician since I moved to Tampa over a year and a half ago once/month & I LOVE her! She has a great disposition & is thorough, taking pride in her work & going above and beyond. I even started doing the lash lift with her (having never tried it) because I trust her. Sol is kind but reserved so she chats if you want but is so respectful of the client. She is one of the gems I cherish in my new hometown! ”
