Body wax is safe to apply to almost any part of the body and always works great. Professional wax removes unwanted body hair in one go, leaving skin soft and velvety smooth in just a few minutes. This is evident with all wax treatments, but especially when waxing legs. Almost everyone suffers from painful leg hair, and post-wax contrast is all one could ask for. The legs are also one of the larger parts of the body compared to other popular treatments like armpits and facial waxes. We provide you with detailed process instructions to help you find the best option among all the waxes available today.
1. Waxing Your Legs – The Do’s and Don’ts
Leg waxes are often people’s introduction to the world of professional waxes. New clients may find waxing for the first time less painful because the skin around the legs is thicker and less prone to infection. Often, newbies have already tried other hair removal methods on their legs before their waxing appointment, which also makes the whole experience less intimidating for them. Leg hair tends to be thicker, especially if you’ve tried shaving in the past.
Because of this and all the skin you have to go through, leg waxing takes patience, and enough experience to know how much wax to heat without letting it go to waste. Without the right skill set, waxing at home can lead to ingrown hairs after a few days, leaving your skin itchy and rough to the touch. In the long run, a professional waxing service will be the best option to keep your skin smooth and beautiful.
When it comes to leg waxes, the time between treatments is four weeks, depending on the length of the hair’s regrowth cycle. Some of the steps you need to take between waxing sessions include regular exfoliation but not too close to the designated date, removing all traces of soaps, creams, and makeup from the skin before waxing, and being mindful of acne/other possibilities of Skin problems that make waxing dangerous.
Post-wax care requires at least 24 hours out of sunlight. If you plan to wax your legs for a day at the beach or any other outdoor activity, be sure to factor in the two-day recovery period after each session. No physical activity of any kind is allowed for these two days. Professional post-wax products can go a long way in preventing infection, but you should also be careful with certain skin care formulations while your pores are still open, mainly those that contain fragrances and artificial ingredients.
As expected, the success of waxing depends largely on using the right products for each area of the skin. The legs are a fairly easy area to deal with in this department, but the products you use can still have an impact on the overall result. So, what’s the best leg wax?
2. The Best Soft Waxes For Smooth, Hair-Free Legs
Soft wax is the safest and most practical choice when waxing large areas of skin such as the legs, arms, and back. We’ve enhanced all the benefits of soft wax with a variety of options to tailor your waxing experience to your needs. Infused with natural ingredients like turpentine, honey, and coconut oil, as well as vitamins to protect the skin from infection, our waxes ensure your skin stays silky smooth, and healthy for weeks after waxing. Here are some advantages you can gain when using our exclusive line of soft body waxes:
- Soft wax is relatively easy to work with. Lay them down in a very thin layer, wait a few seconds for the wax to get on your hair, and the groomer will use a muslin/non-woven strip to remove the wax without leaving a mess. The soft wax spreads out in the direction of hair growth and tears away in the opposite direction.
- They are ideal for saving time when working on large areas of skin. They’re also great on particularly thick areas and on coarser hair.
- They provide more working time without cracking or cracking, which also makes them the most practical choice if the preferred technique involves applying long coats of wax.
- They’re affordable and may come in a variety of forms at your local salon.
- Aupewel’s soft waxes have a low melting point, making the waxing process more comfortable.
With soft wax, beauticians can complete leg waxing without wasting time or causing discomfort to clients. While leg waxing doesn’t require complicated techniques, hairs can also be noticeable when they aren’t properly removed. Soft waxes can’t be applied more than once to the same area, so it’s in everyone’s best interest to choose a formula that ensures cleansing without pushing the skin to its limits.
