Waxing Application Guide

Hair Analysis Before Waxing

• Determine Hair Growth Direction:
  • Important for effective waxing.
  • Hair may not grow in the same direction on all body parts.
  • Apply wax in the direction of hair growth.
  • Remove wax against the opposite direction.

Wax Application Technique

• Initial Application:
  • Wipe the area initially.
  • Focus on the area a finger width above the knee.
• Application Angle:
  • 45-degree thin wax layer.
  • Cover one quadrant of the leg at a time.
• Grip and Strip Placement:
  • Ensure a good grip with thumb and fingers.
  • Place the strip starting from the lower part of the leg.
• Pressure Technique:
  • Use your palm for hard pressure.
  • Hold skin taut towards you.
• Pulling Technique:
  • Pull the strip horizontally along the limb.
  • Avoid pulling upwards.

Waxing Process

• Steps:
  • Apply wax.
  • Rub or press.
  • Pull the strip.
  • Smooth over the area.
• Excess Wax Handling:
  • Press and lift for excess wax.
  • Ensure thin application to prevent skin damage.

Ensuring Effectiveness

• Pressure:
  • Adequate pressure is crucial for hair removal.
  • Insufficient pressure can lead to incomplete hair removal.
• Wax Thickness:
  • Ensure smooth and thin wax application.
  • Thick wax might bruise or rip skin.

Knee Area Waxing

• Application:
  • Lift knee and apply wax above the kneecap.
  • Cover the kneecap top and bottom.
• Knee Positioning:
