Can I Wax After I Finished my 6 Sessions IPL Course? Will It Make Hair to Regrow?

October 4, 2011
Asked By:Bibs

Hi there :) I bought a 6 sessions IPL course. I know I don't have to wax before and inbetween treatments, and that shaving is the only thing I can do. But today I''ve been told that even after I finish the 6 sessions I shpuld not wax because this would make the hair to regrow just like before! Is this true? I mean is the hair that IPL hits dead forever or will it actually regrow? Thank you!
