ABOUT HOT WAX

©2001-2008 Andrew Thompson

Hot Wax is a resin-based wax used for removing hair from sensitive parts of the body, such as bikini line, genitals, face, and eyebrows.

It differs from Strip Wax in that it usually consists of natural ingredients such as honey, bees wax, resin, and essential oils, whereas Strip Wax is made from synthetic ingredients like latex.

The positives of Hot Wax over Strip Wax are that it's far less likely to cause trauma to the skin, especially if it's used with the correct pre-wax oil, and it will grip fine hairs much better than Strip Wax.

It is also self-supporting, so it doesn't need strips to remove it from the skin. Clean up is quicker and easier as well.

The downsides of Hot Wax are that it is more expensive, takes longer to heat up, and takes more time to treat larger areas.
