What is the melting point of cool wax?

The melting point of cool wax is generally recognized to be around 43°C. This temperature is crucial for effective waxing because it allows the wax to become pliable enough to adhere to the hair without being too hot to cause burns on the skin. Waxing works best when the wax is at its optimal application temperature, ensuring that it can properly grip the hair for removal while remaining safe and comfortable for the client.

In this context, if the melting point were lower than 43°C, like 37°C or even 40°C, the wax might not perform effectively during a waxing session, potentially leading to improper hair removal and an uneven application. Conversely, if the melting point were higher than 43°C, such as 45°C, it could pose a risk of burning the skin, which is not acceptable in professional treatments. Therefore, choosing 43°C aligns with established standards in the beauty and aesthetic therapy industry for waxing to ensure both efficacy and safety.
