A look at the dangers of salons double dipping in hot wax for waxing treatments. Tiffany McElroy goes to one salon that does it right and tells you what you should be on the lookout for. She spoke to Anjali Arora of Shobha, who offered some great advice for before and after wax care.

Before Waxing:
-i f its your first time, get a free patch test at shoba to see how your skin reacts to waxing.
- do not put any lotions or oils on your skin prior to waxing
- be menstruation free as your body more sensitive at this time

After Waxing

- do not take a hot bath for at least 2 hours
