What Is Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation (PIH)?
If you’ve ever noticed dark spots or patches on your skin after a breakout, rash, or ingrown hair, you’ve experienced post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH).
PIH is the darkening of the skin that occurs after inflammation or trauma. It often shows up as flat brown, red, or purple spots that remain long after the original issue has healed. You might hear them called "sun spots," "dark marks," or simply "spots" — but whatever the name, the cause is the same: your skin’s response to irritation.

Real Talk: Men, Waxing, and What to Expect at The Cat House
“Do men really wax?”
YES — they do! In fact, 46% of men (across all ages, ethnicities, and income levels) get waxed, and 69% manscape or shave. Male waxing is not just a thing — it’s normal, it’s growing, and it’s welcome here.
Some of our favorite things! CBD!
✨ At The Cat House, we’re obsessed with CBD—and for good reason! ✨
CBD is a powerhouse ingredient that’s packed with antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties. We use a premium CBD serum during our waxing services to help calm inflammation and make your experience more comfortable. 💆♀️💚
Bye Bye Ingrowns
Say Goodbye to Ingrown Hairs: Causes, Prevention & Our Favorite Solutions
If you’ve ever dealt with the redness, irritation, or bumps caused by an ingrown hair, you know just how uncomfortable (and stubborn) they can be. Ingrown hairs—medically known as pseudofolliculitis—occur when a hair curls back into the skin instead of growing outward. This leads to inflammation, redness, and sometimes pus-filled bumps.

How to get the best results
The Long-Term Benefits of Syncing
Once your hair cycle is synced, the magic really starts to happen:
Less Painful Waxes – Hair comes out easier and with less resistance.
Finer Regrowth – Repeated waxing weakens the hair follicles over time.
Longer Time Between Appointments – Because your regrowth is slower and more uniform, you can go longer without needing a touch-up.
Quicker Appointments – With less hair and finer texture, waxing sessions are more efficient.
