What kind of wax do salons use for hair removal? (Its usually yellow)?

Times are hard and I need to start waxing at home. Creme removers dont last as long as waxing. All types of waxes are welcome. brand specific as well AND where can I buy? I usually shop at sallys beauty supply store.What kind of wax do salons use for hair removal? (Its usually yellow)?
Hi I鈥檓 a beauty therapist and most salons use 2 types of waxes:


1 Hot wax- this is used on areas such as any facial areas, under arms and bikini area (you don鈥檛 use any strips of fabric with this wax)


2 strip wax- this is used every where else (if you are going to by salon quality products you will need a wax pot or heating device and wax strips. I recommend getting roll on wax as this doesn鈥檛 drip and ends up being cheaper)


The best brand I find is Mancine (it鈥檚 an Australian brand that is well priced and is of high quality)


If you are going to do your own waxing with salon quality products you will need


Wax pot or heating device


Wax Strips


Paddle Pop Sticks different sizes for different areas (you should always use paddle pop sticks and never double dip as this way you don鈥檛 contaminate the wax)


Wax


Citrus Solvent (this is to remove the wax off the pots, floor and cloths but don鈥檛 apply to skin as it will burn)


Pre Wax Solution (this removes dirt, makeup, and oil from the skin in preparation for waxing)


Talc Power (apply after the pre wax solution to create a barrier so that the wax doesn鈥檛 rip your skin off)


Moisturiser (either a aloe Vera based moisturiser of tea tree oil as aloe Vera is soothing and tea tree is anti septic)


All of this will cost around $200 but in the long run you will save money and if you get good at it you can wax your friends and get them to pay you.


Hope this helps ;-)What kind of wax do salons use for hair removal? (Its usually yellow)?
I use Poetic Waxing from Bliss. It's a really good waxing it I got last winter, and it works wonders. It's organic, has aromatherapy scents, and very gentle for ANY part of your body. It also comes with before/after waxing lotions/oils to make the whole process even better.





It's a BIT pricey though ($45), and I KNOW times are tough, but really consider investing on it, it's a really good investment I made, and I can forget about going to salons and other pro places.





Good luck, this KIT is mainly found @ Sephora, where I purchased mine:

I gotta say that Sephora Bliss kit that someone mentioned seems reasonable and for $45 is almost a bargin.


you could try the strips that are already made up, you just heat them between your hands pull them apart and use, they are quick and easy with no mess with the right amount of wax...





Tip: try looking for a beauty school thats open to clients, you will pay half the price of a normal salon. its worth a look
any wax will do, salons just glamorize them to seem expensive. For all you know they are using shoe glue to wax you. Any over the counter wax will do the job, the important thing is the fabric to pull them out, that you can buy at your local fabric store. GOOD LUCK...
candle wax. i've tried it and it's not bad, it works great. instead of lighting up candles, melt whole candles ( or get candle was and boil it) then pour it on yourself, and pull it off with any type of wax pulling paper.
If you like to save more, you can search for sugaring methods, there are recipes to make that. it's easy and effective
