Back Waxing Preparation

Video Transcript

"We're going to prepare the skin now to be waxed. Taking the cotton square, and this is going to be cold; and just moistening. This actually not just cleansing away whatever is on the skin, lotions or sweat; but it's also making the hair want to stick up and be ready to be pulled. You want to make sure to blot it so it's not to moist. Some waxes call for powder but the waxing system I use has sort of powder built in it, so it's not necessary. I'm going to test an area to see how his skin reacts, for this I'm going to use some wax for medium to coarse hair. So I apply in the direction the hair grows, pushing down making it a good contact. And I have some excess on my stick so I'm just going to get it off. You push the cotton peel on in the direction the hair grows on top of the wax. Hold the skin taught and quick pull, and out your hand on it. If there's moles like he has, I; I'm, I'm not putting wax directly on it; I'm going around it. And so I can see that this is a perfect type of wax for his skin type and his hair. Just cleaning up the little bits that I have here. Because he's not to red, it's normal to be red; it's even normal for there to be bleeding at the hair follicle for the first time waxers or if it's been awhile. So you just want to make sure that you're not pulling straight up but you're pulling across. And see he's not even making a noise. Are you really a shirt person Aaron? And then I could, I could continue cause I can see that this is not effecting him very much at all; so I would move into larger sections. But right now he only has one more section left. So I'll do that."
