Customer Review: must read! tricks and hints!!
Summary: 5 Stars
This might be the same stuff that major brand name salons use aka. this is the best wax you could possibly buy and you could use it on anything, just dont use it on your face if you have very sensitive skin. the trick to using this is do things slow and neatly when you first start and get comfortable using it. you should not have any wax left over to pick off your nails or skin if you do it this way. your hair should be 1/4 inch long to do this (grain of rice). If this is the first time you are doing a bikini wax go to a professional the first time and make sure they use hard stripless wax just like this one. clean your skin with mild soap and warm (never hot water before or after---take a shower if you must) and make sure you are completely dry. apply either baby oil (very little) OR baby powder (and brush off excess) to your skin and start by dipping the wooden spatula and lift it and swirl it around, DO NOT thin it out, you need a layer about 1-2 mm thick. it should be about 2incesx4inches. wait about 10-20 seconds and lightly tap it with your finger at the thickest point, if it is still gooey and lifts up let it set just a little longer, press the wax down with your palm, "flick" the bottom of the strip hold your skin taught (from the top) and pull quickly going in the opposite direction of your hair growth (from the bottom). quickly apply pressure to that spot for a few seconds. repeat... once you get the hang of it, you will be able to use slightly thinner strips but beware if you thin it out too much or let it try to much it will become brittle and will hurt to remove it and you will be left with a mess. you need to pull it off when it is still SOFT just not liquidy. when you are finished, use a damp warm/hot towel to wipe down your skin and then follow with a cold towel to close your pores. you could apply No Bump or something to prevent ingrown hairs and keep your skin soft. Remember!!! If you don't get all of the wax of or leave even the smallest drop on your skin you should remove it right away instead of waiting until you finish the whole area. it will be harder to take off if you wait and will be uncomfortable when you get dressed (fibers will stick and you will have dark little blotches). DO NOT take a hot shower or go swimming for at least 4 hours later, no matter what kind of skin you have!!! Use very mild soap and luke warm water if you must. You could use an oil or lotion that has azulene to calm your skin and use No bump or Tend Skin (the best) to prevent ingrown hairs. if you are going to wax your arm pits you might need a friend to help hold your skin taught or pull (it hurts much less when you hold your skin taught). I hope this helps!!
