What is a primary factor that influences the choice of waxing products for a client?

The choice of waxing products is significantly influenced by the client's hair type and growth. Different hair types, such as coarse, fine, straight, or curly hair, respond differently to various waxing products. For example, coarse hair may require a stronger formulation to effectively remove it, while finer hair might be more suitable for gentler waxes. Additionally, the growth pattern of the hair can affect how well a wax adheres and how cleanly it pulls the hair from the root. Understanding these factors allows an aesthetician to tailor their waxing approach to achieve the best results and minimize discomfort for the client.

Focusing solely on the brand name may not ensure the product is suitable for the specific client’s needs. Although availability in the salon is important for practicality, it doesn't guarantee the effectiveness or appropriateness of the product for a particular client. Similarly, while the severity of skin conditions is a consideration, it does not influence the waxing product specifically tailored to the client’s hair characteristics as directly as hair type and growth do.
