HAIR REMOVAL
Waxing

Waxing is easiest and most convenient way to remove hair from large areas. Waxing
leaves your skin smoother than shaving does because it eliminates stubble by pulling
the hair out from below the top layer of skin. You can wax at home, and beauty supply
stores sell all the equipment you will need.

In hot waxing, a thin layer of heated wax is applied to the skin in the direction of the hair
growth. The hair becomes embedded in the wax as it cools. The wax is then pulled off
quickly in the opposite direction of the hair growth, taking the hair with it. This will sting a
bit, but not as much as portrayed in movies to comic effect.

Cold waxes work the same way as hot waxes. Strips are pre-coated with wax and
pressed onto the skin in the direction of the hair growth and pulled off in the opposite
direction. This will sting a bit.
