I have eczema on the backs of my legs which is irritated by shaving, so I usually use hair removal cream. Would waxing be a better option for me and can the therapist use a wax specifically designed for sensitive skin?

I have a few clients that get irritated eczema when shaving, they have converted to waxing and have not had a problem with irritation. But this will vary depending onthe therapist and product used.

I think waxing is better than hair removal creams. Those creams have chemicals in them that will irritate the skin. Using a wax with calming agents in it. Then I would apply azulu calming oil as a finish. Plus when you shave you are only removing the hair on the top layer. With waxing you are getting the hair from the follicle, which will last longer.
