"Before waxing large body parts I always make sure to do some pre trimming so that hair that's to long, is not long. Aaron and I discussed before, we're just going to wax this one little patch and its extra length. So I'm going to take the trimmers and, and make it shorter. By doing this you're going to make it a lot easier for your client because it's not going to be pulling the hair out as, as much; it's going to be a lot less painful. And it's going to get a cleaner wax. To make sure that you have the right length I have a little guard and, and I just zoom away. So now that I've prepared by removing it's a lot less hair and it will hurt a lot less. And then you just follow with your pre wax instructions on which wax you're using. If their afraid still that they might be in pain before they should take Aspirin, some kind of pain reliever; about 30 minutes before the treatment."
