What is the primary concern if wax is applied too hot?

The primary concern when wax is applied too hot is that it can cause burns. High temperatures can lead to skin irritation or severe burns, potentially damaging the skin and resulting in discomfort or injury for the client. This is particularly important in hair removal practices, as the skin is often sensitive and can be more susceptible to heat damage. Proper temperature control is crucial to ensure client safety and comfort during the waxing process. Keeping the wax at a safe, effective temperature ensures that it adheres properly to the hair while minimizing any risk of harm to the skin.
