Gently exfoliate 24–48 hours before, not on the day
Skip lotion, oil and deodorant on the area on the day

Aftercare

No hot baths, saunas, steam, swimming or heavy workouts for 24 hours
Wear loose clothing over waxed areas for the rest of the day
Skip fragranced lotions, self-tan and deodorant (underarms) for 24 hours
Start gentle exfoliation 2–3 days later, 2–3 times a week, to prevent ingrown hairs
