Hair Removal Techniques for Bikini - Wax Strips

Genuine wax strips grip the hair. The wax encases and grips each hair so it is not broken off or cut, as with shaving, rather it is pulled out at the roots leaving the area hair free for 6 to 8 weeks. Smaller strips are ideal for the bikini area and are by far the fastest long-lasting hair removal method for the bikini area. Marzena Petite Natural Wax Strips are ideal for this purpose. They contain a layer of natural pine wax between two strips of cellophane, offering excellent grip. Marzena Petite Natural Wax Strips are economical, as well — the strip can be applied several times during each treatment.

For maximum effectiveness and minimal discomfort, it is important to hold the skin taut and pull the strip in the opposite direction of hair growth. Any wax remaining on the skin can be removed easily by either reapplying the same strip or by daubing the wax with the unwaxed side of the same strip.

A word of caution: many so-called “cold wax strips” are not wax at all, but rather chemicals that form a kind of gel. Their delivery can be impeded by changes in temperature and they do not effectively grip the hair. Marzena Petite Natural Wax Strips are completely natural pine wax providing maximum effectiveness, and contain no chemicals to adversely affect the skin. Read more…
