paralleltotheskin.Ifthestripispulledawayfromtheskin
insteadof parallelto the skin thehairs tend tobe tugged

successfully.Itcanalsocausebruisingtotheskin.
• Peelingoffslowlywillbepainfulandunsuccessful.
• As a general guide hard wax is more suitable for more
sensitive areas such as the bikini line and facial hair. Soft
wax is more appropriate for waxing larger areas such as
armsandlegsandtheback.
