Body Waxe : What is it?
| A body wax is a body product used for removing unwanted body hair. It is spread thinly over the skin with unwanted hair and covered with a thin strip of cloth. The cloth is ripped from the skin along with the wax, body hair, and dead skin cells, leaving the skin soft and smooth. Although it provides a quick and easy hair removal procedure, body waxing is usually painful and irritating to the skin. |

Kinds of Body Waxes include the following: |
Hot body wax
- A hot body wax uses heat to melt the max above body temperature.
- It is spread thinly over the skin.
- It traps hair--including the roots--as it hardens for easy hair removal.
- The wax is left on the skin for five to 10 minutes for best results.
- The wax is ripped off from the skin using a thin strip of cloth.
Cold body wax
- A cold body wax is also known as a Persian wax.
- It is safer and more comfortable to use since it does not use heat.
- It comes as precoated strips intended to be pressed directly to the skin.
- Hair sticks to the wax strips easily, making it easy to remove using a quick, pull-back action.
