Hot & Warm Waxing
Hot waxing involves the wax being heated in a warmer, microwave or boiling water until it’s just melted, after which it is applied to the skin with a spatula. The wax hardens around the hair shaft as it dries, so when the wax is pulled away, the hair comes off with it. Technically, there’s actually two types of waxing using heated wax, and Beauty Freeze offers both.
- Warm waxing uses wax that has a lower melting temperature and is quite runny. It needs to be removed using a cloth or paper strip, which is pressed over the wax after it’s been applied to the skin. The wax mainly acts like a glue, firmly sticking the hair to the strip.
- Hot waxing uses a wax with a higher melting temperature. It is applied more thickly to the skin and doesn’t require wax removal strips. Instead, the hairs get tightly embedded in the wax as it cools and contracts. Once it sets, the wax can then be directly removed in one piece.
