I'm going to show you now an underarm wax what you want to do is be able to lift grab the hand at the wrist and lift the arm up over the client's head you're going to take their other hand and place it at the side of their breasts and they hold and pull away their breast so this way it makes the skin already all Hut in the underarm and you again you will visually see have a look at what direction the hair grows how many directions the hair goes it can go up to any three to four directions underneath the underarm so you want to U make sure that when you're going to apply you're again you're going to apply we're using hard wax today with the underarms so I'm going to show you that application but you're going to see the application is round it's not in the direction it's actually in a figure eight and you really want to grip the hair that's in that underarm into the hard wax cuz the hard wax is not sticky it's goes on thick and want you want to make sure that it goes on quite thick and it and it grips onto the base of the hair um and sometimes it can be done in more than one section so if the hair is all growing in One Direction you can do one patch most of the time you're doing the lower part of the underarm and then the upper part of the underarm separate in two separate patches with the soft with the hard wax you're going to apply to the center and then you're going to start to spread it out into what we call a patch okay into a circle where you're creating a rim okay you'll see that Rim so the hair under this um underarm was growing down so so I'm going to pull up against okay so against so this hair was going towards me I'm going to pull up against me this hair here is growing down this way so I'm when I apply I'm going to make sure that I pull the hair pull the patch away this way so this takes a little bit of time just a few minutes to um to settle okay just kind of gets hardened and what you're going to do after a few you're going to take your palm and you're going to press with your whole Palm onto the patch so it all adheres together there's no pokey you're not going to test it in any way you're just going to take and put the whole Palm in the patch there is a three-way stretch here the client holds oneway stretch the arm is stretched out and you are going to use your palm and stretch down so wherever you're going to pull from so I'm pulling from the lower part up I am going to pull down against that use the tip of my spatula against the rim of the patch and pull off and my hand hand comes down to press and soothe and when we do we're going to do the top part remember I said the hair is growing down this way doesn't matter how which direction all I want the direction that I want is like a figure eight it's like this you kind of turn your spat like a figure eight you're making this patch all even okay it has to be even in its application you can't have thicker on uh like a thicker Edge or a thinner area and a thin and a thicker area it all needs to be quite even and a very quite even and smooth patch okay's so like I said this hair was going down this way she's already pulling that way I'm going to wait a few minutes I'm going to press with my palm oh and it came off we got to do that again this will happen come off and off let's do that again so when you apply the patch it has to be even smooth round an even application the thickness has to be all the same and you always have a very thick what we call the rim or an edge or a tab okay you'll see that the rim is quite thick around it's an even application the hair was growing downwards okay so we are going to pull the patch upwards so against the hair growth going to press on the patch with the palm we're going to place our spatula on that edge we're going to hold and pull off and press and palm and smooth and soothe
