pimples on back after waxing - #15738

Arya

I am really confused and a bit stressed out about this situation. A week ago, I decided to try waxing my back for the first time before a beach trip, thought it would be a good idea. But now, I’ve got these annoying pimples on my back after waxing and they’re driving me nuts! At first, I thought it was just irritation from the wax, but they keep popping up! I wasn’t expecting any of this! They are small, red, and kinda itchy. I didn’t really have this problem with shaving before, but thought waxing would be better. Has anyone else had pimples on back after waxing? Like, is this normal or am I doing something wrong? I tried some aloe vera to soothe it, but it has only been a couple of days and I’m seriously worried about how long this is gonna last. Are there any products you recommend to clear up these pimples on back after waxing? I’m just hoping this doesn’t ruin my beach trip! I really don’t want to feel self-conscious or anything. It’s super frustrating because I thought waxing would be a smoother option!! Any help or advice would mean the world!
