Warm Waxing Tutorial

The skin of the face and body is virtually covered by hair. It appears either short and downy or longer and coarser.

The hair, which grow on exposed areas of the body, have a significant effect on overall appearance, particularly if they are dark or excessive. There are many different ways to remove unwanted hair , such as wax , sugaring, shaving , Depilatory creams , laser hair removal, and Plucking. i will learn you how to use wax.

1- Wax heater.

2- Some wax sticks.

3- Dusting powder or baby powder.

4- Wax pieces.

5- Body lotion.

Before waxing make sure your hairs are long enough for a wax, to get a good wax you need a decent length of hair.  Hairs need to be at least five-ten mm long for effective waxing.

Apply the dusting powder or baby powder by a clean brush to prepare the area to be waxed that powder is going to absorb the excess oil that’s in the skin and it lifts the hairs and helps them to be covered by the wax. It also prevents the wax from sticking to the skin.

Put the stick in to the heater and twist some wax around the stick controlling the drips.

With your hand, stretch the area of skin to be waxed in order to allow all the hair in the area to be covered by the wax.

With the stick, apply the wax to the skin in strips, working in the direction of the hair growth.

I recommended to work in about 5cm strips or you will find larger strips messy and difficult to remove from the skin.

The wax should be applied at approx. 3mm thickness.

Go to the first area of skin which has wax on and feel the wax which should be fairly warm.

Press the strip of wax to the area of skin below.

Flick up the end of the lower edge of the strip of wax. Support the surrounding skin with your free hand while you do this.

Remove the wax strip quickly against the direction of the hair growth.

You can then immediately apply pressure or rub the skin lightly to reduce the effects of stinging once the strip has been removed.

Remove any small pieces of remaining wax quickly pressing the exposed side of the warm strip of used wax to the area.

Finaly apply the body lotion and massage your body.
