- Allow it cool slightly.
Waxing technique
Test the temperature before applying the wax to your skin. It should be hot, but not scalding.Once the wax has cooled slightly, test it on your finger. Put wax into a bowl to
cool it.
Apply it to your skin,
in the direction of hair growth.Place a clean cotton cloth strip on the wax and yank it against the direction of hair growth.
Wipe the area clean with a cold cloth after you've finished waxing.You could also apply ice to the waxed area, to close and tighten pores.You may notice that your skin has turned red, or that you have tiny
bumps on the skin immediately after waxing. This is a normal reaction,
and the redness and bumps should disappear within an hour. Applying a
moisturizer or soothing lotion will help.
If you can still see sugar particles in the wax, the hair will probably not come out and you would need to re-cook the wax.
