How to Use Hard Wax to Remove Hair


Here's how to get rid of unwanted body or facial hair using hard wax.

--Cleanse the area to remove any dirt, makeup, oil, and lotions.
--Apply a pre-wax oil to protect the skin and create a barrier between the skin and the wax.
--Heat the hard wax in a wax warmer or microwave, stirring it slightly to cool it down.
--Using a stick and pressure, apply the wax in the same direction of hair growth to try to avoid breakage. Make sure to create a lip at the end (using light pressure) to have something to hold on to while removing.
--Wait for the wax to harden (this usually takes about five minutes).
--Pull the wax off in the opposite direction of hair growth. Repeat on all desired areas.
--Apply an ingrown serum once hair is removed.
