Underarms black patches after Rica wax

2019-05-26 14:53:23
Hi there, I got my armpits waxed and after few hours I started feeling the irritation. The area turned red and thereafter, it has turned terribly black. I am really worried about how it looks right. Could someone please suggest a solution to this problem. It's been few days now and I can't see any fading of the black patches. Many thanks in advance.
