Waxing At Home: The Pros & Cons And What to Expect

Do you ever find yourself in need of a silky smooth touch up but just can't find the time to fit it in your busy schedule? While booking a waxing sesh at your trusty local salon can be an option of choice for us ladies, it's also daunting to know that there just might not be enough time to fit it in. But what if you could enjoy the same quality of wax at home? With new generational waxes, it's certainly not as much of a chore as it may have been in the past. In this post, we're going to share with you the pros, the cons and what to expect when you choose to wax yourself at home.

The Pros Probably one of the most important pros of an at-home waxing session is that you don't have to "schedule in" an appointment if you're a busy bee. Once you're done with work, you can just lazily prepare at home with some company or "me-time". But other than efficiency, doing your waxing sesh at home makes for a comfortable environment and it's albeit cheaper, too! The Cons Due to its easy-to-use features, waxing at home can sometimes lead to wrong use of hard wax beans, for example.. too hot of a temperature while applying or simply not learning the ropes before hand. If you're a newbie to the world of waxing, you have to make sure that you're equipped with the right knowledge of waxing yourself. You can do this by reading our blogs or watching our how-to video ;) if you want to take it that step further, scheduling a waxing session first, and then make sure to take notes from the experience. You don't want to burn yourself when doing your first at-home waxing session, right? What To Expect Once you've established enough experience with waxing, you'll be equipped with the right knowledge of doing it yourself. Got no time to head to the salon? No problem. Got invited to a beach trip tomorrow? Just plug in that wax warmer and you're good to go! It's essentially a life saver for those impromptu moments. It's safe, effective and budget-friendly too. In conclusion, knowing the pros and cons of at-home waxing can benefit you fully, whether you prefer it or not. If you're still up for a trip to the salon, then so be it. But make sure you're also equipped with knowing what to do when there's not enough time or money for a trip to the salon.
