Why hard wax is the best for sensitive skin

We’ve heard it all before..waxing is painful! But it doesn’t have to be the worst pain ever! A lot of that can be possible when using hard wax and going to a professional that has the right technique.


Why choose a waxer that uses hard wax?

First and foremost, it’s more comfortable for you as the client. There are many factors but here’s a few.

  • Its less likely to be too hot and burn the skin

  • Its applied warm and removed in one piece

  • You won’t leave sticky or tacky afterwords and ruin your clothes

  • Less possibility of tearing, bruising and damaging the skin

  • Your waxer can go over the area several times without damaging the skin and overall grabs less dead skin cells with it, being the better option for more sensitive skin types.

What do we use?

Personally I love mermaid wax or starpil but our main use is mermaid wax. It’s a vegan blend and stays tacky making it great for all hair types.


I have sensitive skin, should I even wax?

Waxing can improve and help with ingrown hairs, razor burn and rashes. Choosing a waxer that has a lot of experience and uses good product is the best bet to ensure that you have the best experience. With that being said, waxing isn’t for everyone and the only way to know is to try! Majority of clients that come to me with sensitive skin end up loving waxing and stick with it since their skin does better with it than shaving.
