THALASSO BODY WAXING
Soft Wax
Soft wax, also known as strip waxing, is used by spreading a thin layer of the warm body wax on top of the skin. This is
typically used on larger areas of the body, like your arms and legs. It is applied directly onto the skin by using either a
wooden stick or a roller. Then a strip of cloth is put over it and pulled off, removing hair. Soft types of wax get to the tiny,
ne hair strands that you can't see, leaving you with smooth skin.
Hard Wax
Hard body wax is typically used for smaller, more sensitive areas including the upper lip, underarms and bikini area.
This type of body wax is applied warm, directly onto the skin. It is given time to cool and then harden, and is then pulled
off in the opposite direction of the hair growth. A benet of hard types of wax is that they only bind to the hair, never the
skin.
Fruit Wax
Fruit body wax works just like hard body wax and is recommended for sensitive skin. It comes loaded with fruit extracts
like berries and plum, which means these types of wax are antioxidant-rich and contain vitamins that nourish the skin.
Plus, they're a lot gentler on the skin than basic soft body wax, and hence, can also be costlier. However, using this won't
leave any marks, and they double as skincare as well, which is a plus.
Chocolate Wax
Chocolate wax is another popular option available at most salons. It capitalises on the skin benets of chocolate as an
ingredient, which is antioxidant-rich and less painful to use as opposed to other body wax variants. Chocolate body wax
also contains glycerine and oils like soybean and almond, and is anti-inammatory, which makes it the ideal choice for
skin that is prone to redness.
