Best type of wax for Brazilian waxing

There are a few types of wax used for waxing; with two main types for Brazilian waxing, hard and soft. “What wax is best for Brazilian waxing?” “Is hard wax better or soft wax better?”  We get these questions a lot.  Now, let’s explain the difference between those two types of wax.

Hard wax is known as stripless wax, as it doesn’t require the use of strips for removal.  Hard wax is the type of wax that mainly adheres to the hair, and not so much to the skin. Your esthetician would apply the wax on the skin and wait until the wax cools down, as it cools it hardens. Once the wax has hardened, your esthetician would remove the wax by gripping the edge of the wax and pulling it off in the opposite direction of hair growth, which pulls the hair out by the roots.

Soft wax is known as strip wax, as it requires the use of strips for removal. Your esthetician would apply a thin layer of oil or powder on the skin before applying wax on the skin, which makes the wax mainly adhere to the hair and not as much to the skin. Then your esthetician would apply a waxing strip on top of the wax, then the strip is pulled off in the opposite direction of hair growth, removing the wax and hair in the process. 

The answer for the questions is: both hard wax and soft wax for Brazilian waxing methods are effective, your waxing experience ultimately will depend on your preferences and the skill of the esthetician performing the waxing. So, if you want the best experience for your Brazilian wax, you need to find an esthetician who is great at Brazilian waxing.
