How beauty pros can choose the right aftercare products for waxing, sugaring, and hair removal
As beauty professionals, we know the waxing or sugaring service doesn’t end when the client leaves the treatment room. The true success of any waxing, sugaring, or hair removal experience comes from the aftercare products clients take home to extend their results and protect their skin.
But with so many products on the market, how do you find the right line to carry in your studio? The key is choosing a brand that delivers high-quality, affordable, and effective results while aligning with your business model and client needs.
Why professional aftercare products matter
As estheticians and waxing specialists, our clients trust us to guide them. When we recommend
professional-quality aftercare products, we:
- Ensure they see better results between visits
- Support the healing process by reducing irritation, bumps, and ingrowns
- Build loyalty and confidence with each client interaction
- Increase retail sales revenue by offering solutions they can’t wait to take home
The best products aren’t just retail add-ons—they start in the treatment room. When a client experiences a product on their skin during their service, the conversation about at-home care feels natural and authentic.
How to find the right company for your studio
When choosing a product line to carry, look for these must-haves:
✔ Reputation & expertise – Is the brand made by someone who understands estheticians’ needs?
✔ Affordability – Are the products attainable for both pros and clients?
✔ Proven results – Do they truly work in preventing ingrowns, soothing skin, and hydrating after hair removal?
✔ Business alignment – Does the company offer wholesale, drop ship, or affiliate options that fit your studio’s retail strategy?
✔ Treatment room + retail crossover – Are products packaged for both professional backbar use and take-home retail sales?
Why Just The Strip is the perfect fit
Created by an esthetician for estheticians, Just The Strip was founded by Tawnya, a beauty industry veteran with nearly 25 years of experience and owner of successful Wax & Lash studios in Denver, CO.
Every Just The Strip product is studio-tested daily in her treatment rooms and displayed on the retail shelves at Wax & Lash. The line was created to be:
✨ Affordable – Pricing that makes sense for pros and clients
✨ Attainable – Easy-to-order with fast shipping and low minimums
✨ Effective – Products that actually work for real results
Hero products every pro should carry
- Smooth Operator Ingrown Hair Serum – The very first launch, now a fan-favorite in studios across the country. Available in roll-on, pads, and pro sizes.
- Nourishing Oils – One of Just The Strip’s best sellers, available in multiple scents plus a pro 8oz size for treatment rooms.
- Truth Serum Spray – A gentle, pregnancy-safe option perfect for sensitive clients.
- Smooth Operator Pads – Quick and convenient for in-room use or retail add-ons.
- The Polisher Scrub – A must-have exfoliant to prevent ingrowns and maintain smooth skin.
Using these products in the treatment room makes for an easy transition to retail sales. For example:
👉 Apply Smooth Operator Pads directly after a wax to calm the skin, then recommend the
at-home size for continued use.
👉 Finish services with PRO 8oz Nourishing Oils in the treatment room, then suggest a retail-size bottle for daily hydration.
This seamless flow builds trust, enhances results, and naturally boosts retail sales.

To support estheticians and waxing specialists, Just The Strip offers several ways to partner:
- Wholesale packs – Purchase in 3-packs for resale in your studio
- Drop shipping – Send products directly to clients without holding inventory
