+++Frequently Asked Questions +++
Does Waxing Work Absolutely! Shaving cuts the hair follicle at the skin. But Lifstance LCD wax warmer kit shrink-wraps the hair, pulling it out by the root, resulting in silky smooth skin that lasts 4x longer than shaving. Regrowth is slower, finer, and less noticeable.
Is It PainlessHard wax is often called painless waxing. Pain tolerances vary, but many users rave about their comfort level with our flexible wax. Certain areas are more sensitive than others and because you're pulling hair by the root, slight and quick discomfort is normal. With continued waxing, you will experience less pain each time. Plus, your hair may appear to grow back slower and finer. Win-win!
How Do I Use The KitPour the desired amount of beans into your wax heater. Melt wax on high, then turn heat down to medium and let it cool until it's the consistency of honey. Using an applicator, apply wax in direction of hair growth. Allow 30 to 45 seconds to harden. As soon as the wax isn't sticky to the touch, pull wax quickly in the opposite direction of hair growth. Lifestance wax sticks to your hair, not your skin. Say aloha to gorgeously smooth skin.
Do I Need Cloth StripsNope. No cloth strips are needed with hard wax.
What Areas Can I WaxWhat can't you wax! Go for it. Wax your entire body: arms, legs, bikini line, brazilian, chest, back, underarms, face, brows, and beard. Love ALL your skin!
How Can I Clean The PotTo clean your pot, first use up any remaining wax. While the wax machine is powered off but still warm, use cotton muslin strips or paper towels to wipe clean. You can also use a small amount of oil to wipe it clean.
How long does it take the wax to melt Depending on the amount of wax beads used, it can take anywhere from 5-15 minutes for wax to melt completely.
Why is the wax too stringyHeating your wax at the wrong temperature can lead to your wax being too stringy. Typically, that's because wax temperature is too cold to stir it. We recommend reheat the wax on professional wax warmer until the wax has reached a honey-like consistency.
Can I mix the waxMixing the wax beans is doable but not recommend. As different wax beans have different fomulas. Some targets for coarse hair while some targets for finer hair, some have strong grip, some have low melting point. Mixing multiple variations of the wax can lead to the product not performing the same.But if left only little of wax,it's okay to mix the wax.
Why does the wax keep breakingWax breaking during the removal process is typically caused by two main reasons. Either the wax application is too thin or the wax was left on the skin for too long. To avoid the wax breaking during the application process we recommend applying a thicker layer of wax to the skin to get the rhythm or groove of the wax's behavior creating a lip for grip to remove the strip. The wax should rest on the skin for approximately 30-40 seconds prior to the removal. If your wax is still wet after 30-40 seconds, please allow an additional 30 seconds until the wax has dried.
Why is the wax not removing any hairsWrong heating, application and removal process of the wax can lead to hairs being left behind. We recommend to use wax when the wax has reached a honey-like consistency.
