Underarm Waxing: Hair Removal Tips for Home Spa Treatment
Whenever you’re doing underarm waxing, you want to make sure that you cover the clothes on your client and on yourself. Just tuck this in just a little bit just to make sure that you don’t get anything on the clothes, and we’ll do one more right in this area. You want to start with the pre-appellation oil and just add a little bit of that on; not too much because then you won’t be able to pull the hair out. And another good tip is that you want to make sure that you cleanse the area first. And you can just do that by just wiping the area off, you can use a little bit of sanitizer. And you want to make sure that you just apply the appellation oil on there, and it’s just to soften the skin and just to prepare the skin for waxing. And you just get your wax; the underarm is split in two most of the time. This lower half right here, you want to make sure that you pull the wax down in a downward motion. And then you’re going to take your muslin strip, and apply that to the underarm in the same fashion that you put on the wax. And then you’re going to want to pull it, make sure that you pull the skin, and then you pull it off. And you want to make sure you hold that, just apply a little bit of pressure because it helps with the pain, and then you want to do the top half of the underarm. And again you go with the hair line which is growing up, and just do a thin layer. And you put the muslin strip on the same way that you put the wax, and you just brush it down just a couple of times, and then on this part you want to make sure that you pull the arm hair, and then pull again away from the hairline. And just to help get some of that stickiness off, and that’s your underarm wax.
