Using hard wax on your legs involves applying the wax, letting it dry, and then removing it in the opposite direction of hair growth.
Here's a breakdown of how to use hard wax on legs:
-
Preparation: Ensure your legs are clean and dry. You may want to exfoliate a day or two beforehand.
-
Wax Application: Apply a thick layer of hard wax to a section of your leg, going in the direction of hair growth.
-
Drying: Allow the wax to dry completely. This usually takes a few minutes.
-
Removal: Once the wax is dry, lift up on the edge of the wax strip to create a lip.
-
Pulling: Pull the wax strip quickly in the opposite direction of hair growth. Apply pressure to the freshly waxed area immediately after pulling to alleviate discomfort.
-
Repeat: Continue this process on the rest of your leg.
-
Post-Wax Care: After waxing, apply a soothing lotion or oil to calm the skin.
