To wax with honey wax for hair removal, you typically apply the wax to the skin, cover it with a strip, and then quickly remove the strip.
Based on the provided reference regarding using a D.I.Y. hair removal wax with honey and sugar, the process involves specific steps for application and removal using a fabric strip.
Here’s a breakdown of how it works according to the reference:
- Apply the Wax: You need to apply the honey wax to the area you wish to wax. It is important to apply the wax parallel to the growth of the hair.
- Place the Strip: Once the wax is applied, place a fabric strip directly onto the wax.
- Smooth the Strip: Smooth the fabric strip down firmly onto the wax and skin, ensuring good contact.
- Rip it Off: Finally, rip the strip off quickly. The reference notes that it will hurt, and you will flinch.
This method, often associated with sugaring or honey-based waxes, adheres the fabric strip to the hair via the wax, allowing for removal of the hair when the strip is pulled.
