Now we're going to wax the lip area and I'm going to do one half of the lip. I have already pre cleansed and put numbing cream. So, I'm going to one half of the lip with the hard wax. Usually your, the hair on your lip grows in a downward motion, so I'm going to apply the wax in the way the hair grows in a downward motion. Remember, we've already pre cleansed and we've numbed that area. This is the hard wax so I want to put it on pretty thick and pretty heavy in the direction the hair grows. You want to press on it, see if it, see if it is hard enough to be removed, which it is. I can touch it. It's not too hard. If it gets too hard it'll just break, it won't even come off. I want to take and pull this against the direction of the hair growth in one soft motion. Remember hard wax you can actually apply a second time. In this case, I'm going to need to do that. Is the numbing cream working? Good. It's on nice and thick. If I have a previous remove wax, I'm going to take that because it's almost like a, almost like chewing gum, I guess would be a good way to describe that. Stick it to there so I have something to apply it to, and remove. There it is. Nice and clean. And that's how you're going to, that's how you wax the lip with the hard wax.
