Wax beans are the most common form of wax products and are a permanent addition to a salon or spa. The basic technique involves melting the beans and applying the resulting mixture to the skin to remove all hair from the area. You may have heard of people using a microwave to do this, but most groomers agree that a hard wax warmer is the surest way to get the perfect consistency out of all the hair at once.
Today, we’ll explain what a hard wax warmer is and how it can help simplify a professional waxing service, but first, let’s start with the basics.
1. What are Hard Wax Beans?
Hard wax beans are usually blended with pine resin and have a concentration of vitamins and natural properties. They represent an easy way to remove body hair in areas that are often difficult to manage, whether because of sensitive skin or because of the precision required to avoid mistakes.
Wax beans have always been a favorite of salon regulars because they greatly reduce the pain of waxing treatments. When heated at temperatures that are not only tolerable but pleasing to the touch, their creamy ingredients adhere to hair almost effortlessly. Plus, they don’t stick to the skin, so peeling off the wax reduces overall pain.
After heating at the proper temperature for the specified time, the wax beans will spread easily on the skin, and the beautician can easily ensure that the wax layer is even on all sides. Plus, the correct wax consistency won’t leave a sticky residue, so at the end of the treatment the skin will be refreshed and there will be less mess to deal with.
As you can see, the wax beans need to be melted to work on the skin, there is no way. Once you have chosen the wax you will use for your service, you need to think as much as possible about the equipment you will use to heat the wax. Do wax beans need a wax warmer? If so, how is it different than using a regular heater or your microwave at home?
2. Why do you need a wax warmer?
A wax warmer can make overall waxing easier and faster. Melting wax properly in the microwave isn’t impossible, but it may take some trial and error. That means more time wasted and at least some wax lost. What’s more, a wax warmer can help you avoid hurting your clients. When using a regular warmer, you can make the wax too hot, or you could end up making it harder to remove the wax from your skin painlessly.
Wax warmers are not difficult to operate as they are specially made to improve maneuverability during epilation services. All you need is enough space for your devices and a power outlet. With the heater on, the light stays on while the thermostat works on the wax.
You’ll be able to manually control the heat from high to moderate (remember to follow the label directions) so you can adjust the temperature once the wax has reached the right consistency. Our range of professional wax warmers is available in specifications for all our products and formulations.
Professional body waxes typically need to be heated for 15-25 minutes to achieve the proper consistency, and we develop our materials with this time frame in mind. Each of our wax warmers ensures you are comfortable as you work, increasing versatility when treatments require the use of multiple wax formulations at once. So, there are multiple versions to suit your own needs and save you time in your busy work schedule.

The System Wax, with two rolling troughs and a central heater for the wax tanks, includes all the mechanisms needed to adjust each wax recipe simultaneously.
