When to start waxing legs
Guidelines to Waxing Coarse Hair : Waxing Tips & Advice
hi I'm summer vassilis today I'm going
to give you some guidelines for waxing
coarse hair typically you're going to
find this coarse hair on your legs
underarms or bikini line today I'm going
to focus on the coarse hair on your legs
let's get started so the first thing you
want to do is you want to start by
prepping with some powder and you can
use a talc powder such as a baby powder
or talcum powder
such as a cornstarch powder make sure
that powder is rubbed in really well now
the key to waxing coarse hair is you
want to break it up into small sections
and you really want to focus on the
direction of the hair growth so we're
going to start at the ankle and apply it
in a nice thin layer and you want to
take your strip and again you want to
remove in small sections as well so I'm
going to break this section into three
different sections and really give some
good pressure to your strip and hold
your strip is close to that wax
application versus holding out here this
is going to give you more power in your
pull to pull those hairs out it will be
sensitive so a little pressure
afterwards always feels good and you're
going to continue on again pressure
holding your strip nice and close and
one more
but how nice that came out and we're
going to continue up the leg so I'm
going to fold my strip closing that wax
down and then I'm going to use this
clean side of my strip place that down
next time and use this part as my pull
and we're going to keep it in two small
sections here I'm really focusing on the
direction of that hair growth you're
always applying with the hair growth and
pulling against the hair growth you can
take your whole palm or you can use your
fingers
you can see the skin moving underneath
with that pressure notice that I'm only
using half the strip when I'm removing
that's the amount that I'm putting onto
my strip you want to have good quick
follow-through
don't pull slow that's going to cause
you more pain after you've done don't
forget to put some soothing oil on and
massage it in
