Pre and Post Wax Oil is the back bar step that makes every body wax feel smoother, from the first pull to the final wipe, and it is made by us in small batches in Southern Oregon with one light ingredient at its heart, sunflower oil. Before the service, a thin layer creates a light barrier between the skin and the wax, so hard wax and strip wax grip the hair rather than the skin, which means less tugging and a more comfortable wax for your client. Many pros tell us it has replaced powder in their room.
After the service, a little massaged over the area lifts sticky wax residue quickly and leaves skin soft and hydrated, without the greasy film clients dislike. It is made with light sunflower oil and comes in three options: Simply Unscented, our fragrance free option, which is pure sunflower oil and nothing else, Sandalwood Vanilla, and Dreamsicle, our vanilla and citrus favorite.
Choose a 16 oz glass bottle with a pump for each room, or a gallon to refill from. Because both sizes are heavy, they carry their own freight and are not part of free shipping on orders of $200 or more. It works beautifully alongside our Rosin Free Clear Soft Strip Wax, and it was created by Tawnya Fornerod, a licensed esthetician with almost 25 years in the beauty industry who owns multiple studios. For clients to take home, Nourishing Oil comes in 1 oz retail bottles and PRO 3 packs at half of retail.
How to use Pre and Post Wax Oil before and after waxing
Before the wax, smooth a thin layer over clean, dry skin with your gloved hand, then wipe away any excess so the wax can grip the hair. After the wax, massage a little over the area to lift any residue, then wipe clean. A little goes a long way.
Sandalwood Vanilla and Dreamsicle: Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil, Fragrance.
Caution: For external use only. Do not use on broken or irritated skin, and patch test clients with very sensitive skin. Oil can make floors slippery, so wipe up spills right away.

The back bar oil for every body wax
Pre and Post Wax Oil is the one bottle that works on both ends of the service. A thin layer before hard or strip wax helps the wax grip the hair rather than the skin, and a little afterward lifts residue and leaves skin soft and hydrated. It was created by Tawnya Fornerod, a licensed esthetician with almost 25 years in the beauty industry who owns multiple studios, and it is made by us in small batches in Southern Oregon.
Light sunflower oil, and that is all there is in Simply Unscented. Sandalwood Vanilla and Dreamsicle add fragrance for a subtle scent in the room. It glides on without feeling heavy and wipes away clean, so clients leave hydrated rather than greasy.
I absolutely love this oil & the dreamsicle scent. My clients always compliment how it smells and feels afterwards. It works perfectly for pre and post wax.
I personally have it at home and it has improved my skin so fast. I had forgot to exfoliate and apply for a week and a ingrown popped up, started exfoliating that same night and the next day my ingrown was feeling sm better.
My wax girl uses this on me after my wax and just after the first time I was hooked! That’s why I had to buy bigger amount because I use it daily! Love it!
My back bar can’t live without these oils. wax residue comes off effortlessly with the post wax oil. It doesn’t take much to do the job so I’m not waistful and it is cost effective from a professional standpoint. I’ll buy it 100000x over
We have been looking for a new pre/post oil, everything we had previously tried was leaving the skin so oily you could fry chicken with it. Not only does Strip oil smell amazing but it leaves the skin with just the right amount of hydration! So happy we found this oil!
Very light weight and the scent isn’t overpowering! I got the vanilla/citrus and it’s perfect! My clients have been loving it as well due to no sticky oily feeling left behind. Just nice hydrated skin!
This has been a game changer in waxing. I was so used to using powder all these years on every client, now I mostly use just this unless I have clients that tend to sweat a lot. It makes my clients smooth and less irritated. Highly recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
My esthetician uses this on me when I get waxed and I loved the way it made my skin feel like silk and the smell is amazing !! Placed the order and within 2 days, it was on my doorstep.
Love this oil so much more than a big name brand out there. I really love the scent and how moisturized mine and my clients skin feels afterwards. Absolutely LOVE this product!
Amazing!
I had never used oil pre wax before but had seen so many others try it. I can’t go back to powder now thanks to this magic in a bottle! It’s also perfect post wax to remove any residue or stickiness.
Smooth a thin layer over clean, dry skin and wipe away any excess before you wax. The light barrier helps hard wax and strip wax grip the hair rather than the skin, which makes the service more comfortable. Too much oil can keep strip wax from gripping, so a little goes a long way.
Can I use it instead of powder?
Many pros tell us it has replaced powder in their room. For clients who sweat a lot, some still reach for powder first.
Does pre and post wax oil work with both hard wax and soft wax?
Yes, a thin layer before the service helps hard wax and strip wax grip the hair rather than the skin, and a little afterward lifts residue from either one. With strip wax, wipe away the excess first, because too much oil can keep the wax from gripping.
What is the difference between Pre and Post Wax Oil and Nourishing Oil?
Pre and Post Wax Oil is the back bar oil you use during the service, made with sunflower oil in 16 oz and gallon sizes. Nourishing Oil is the aftercare oil that finishes the service and goes home with the client, made with grape seed, jojoba, tea tree, and copaiba, in 1 oz retail bottles and an 8 oz back bar size.
Is there a fragrance free pre wax oil?
Yes, Simply Unscented is pure sunflower oil with no fragrance at all, and it is the one we recommend for sensitive skin and for clients who prefer no scent.
Can I use the same oil before and after waxing?
Yes, that is exactly what Pre and Post Wax Oil is made for: one light sunflower oil that works as the thin barrier before the wax and the residue remover after it. Smooth a thin layer over clean, dry skin and wipe away the excess before you wax, then massage a little over the area afterward to lift sticky residue and leave the skin soft. Keeping one oil for both steps means one bottle per room and nothing extra to reorder.
