hot waxing

[ickleimi]

has anyone ever tried this?

I'm on my second attempt, the wax always breaks and leaves loads of residue and hairs behind.

I've tried nothing, oil and talc underneath and it doesn't seem to make any difference, the wax residue is also near impossible to remove. Does this match others experience?

Has anyone used sugar wax?

Sugar wax? (Googling...) Oh, that has potential: painful and messy!

I like to use the paraffin baths (the ones that you would find at an upscale spa) The wax peels right off, leaves nothing behind except soft skin, is temp controlled so you can't accidently burn yourself, the paraffin can be re-used (as long as you are only using it on you). To add colour, I like to use the good old Crayola's.. You know, the ones that would melt in your back pocket on a warm summer day? They do not raise the temp at all, and they come in wonderful coulors.......
