How To Wax Your Body
A Few Words of Caution
Pre Wax Checklist
Directions
- Slowly pull the wax strips apart to ensure even wax distribution (there’s no need to rub the strips between your hands to warm them up—our soft-gel wax comes ready to use).
- Massage Strip in Direction of Hair Growth Place a strip on the area you’d like to remove hair and rub it firmly in the direction of hair growth (To find, rub a hand over your skin. If the hair is smoothed to the skin and looks neat, that is the direction of hair growth).
- Hold skin taut at the base of the strip. With your other hand, grip the wavy edge of the strip and pull it off quickly against the direction of hair growth. Pull away from skin in a sideways motion.
- Repeat steps 1-3 for each area of hair removal. Each strip can be used for about two pulls, depending on hair texture. Don't go over the same spot twice though; if you don't get all the hair on your first try, wait 24 hours and try again to prevent irritation.
- When you’re all finished, use an included Post-Wax Cloth to remove any excess wax residue.
