What is the correct temperature for wax before application?

The correct temperature for wax before application is typically around body temperature, which is considered warm. This temperature range is essential because warm wax adheres well to the hair and skin, making the hair removal process more effective. When wax is at the right temperature, it becomes pliable, allowing it to spread easily over the skin and to grasp the hair firmly without causing discomfort.

Using wax that is too cold can lead to difficulties in application, as it may not spread smoothly and may not adhere well to the hair. Conversely, wax that is too hot can pose a risk of burns to the skin, which is why maintaining a temperature close to body temperature is ideal for client safety and comfort.
