DIY- Waxing at home

Hey my lovely friends…

How are you all?

I know I haven’t posted in a while, and I am really sorry for that as I was busy with some of my personal works.

Any ways as you have already read the topic, today we will talk about waxing at home easily without any professional help.

But before knowing about the steps to do waxing at home I want to tell you all about some do’s and don’ts about waxing at home which are really essential to know before starting waxing….

DO’s of waxing at home:

• Do clean your skin before starting waxing.
• Do use clean strips and waxing stick.
• Do apply powder before waxing as it will remove any moisture from skin.
• Do apply baby oil after waxing as it will remove any left-over wax from your skin and will bring the moisture back to your skin.:)
• Exfoliate your skin before and after waxing to make your skin glow and it will help wax to remove hair a little easily.
• Dab your skin after removing every hair section to soothe your skin and hair roots.
• Apply wax when it is, medium hot (which will not burn your skin).
• Apply wax in the direction of the hair growth and pull of the strip in the opposite direction.
• Try to stay parallel to your skin when pulling your strip out.

DON’T’s of waxing at home:

• Don’t wax at any irritated/ burnt/or wounded skin.
• Don’t use metal spatula as when it is dipped in hot wax it gets hot and when you apply wax at your skin it might burn your skin as wax might not be that hot when applied but spatula will be.
• Never apply wax more than twice at particular skin.
• Don’t pluck out the hair if left or its roots left after waxing as it may infect your skin.
• Never do waxing if your hair is less than ¼ inch or more than ¾ inch(if shorter it won’t come out easily and if longer it will pain you a lot)
• Always take care of your surrounding when waxing there should not be any child or old age people because it might be risky if it falls on their skin, it will burn their skin as both age people have sensitive skins
• Don’t try to remove any single or few hairs left unremoved by razor on the same day of waxing as it might cut your skin or infect it.
• Don’t do bikini waxing 2 3 days before periods as skin is at its most sensitive time.

In my opinion you should go to professionals when you have to do back, bikini or even underarms waxing, but you can go for arms and legs and face by yourself.(but by proper precautions)

Now you know everything let’s jump to steps:

1. Start by heating your wax and preparing your sitting place with every essentials which is needed in waxing as you cannot jump here and there while waxing.
2. Clean your skin area properly removing any dirt, sweat or water.
3. Now apply powder at your skin nicely.
4. Take a small amount of wax in your wooden waxing stick (clean ice cream stick) and apply it on your skin in the direction hair is growing.
5. Now take one clean strip and apply it in the direction you applied wax.
6. After that rub gently over the strip to make wax get into the roots of hair.
7. And now the painful moment, pull of your strip to the opposite direction to your hair growth.
8. Quickly dab your waxed skin.
9. Keep on continuing the same steps and after you are done waxing apply some baby oil and clean your skin.
10. After sometime wash your skin with lukewarm water and apply some moisturiser.

And voila you are done! : ) <3
