Removing body hair is anything but pleasant. For some women it is about pain, while others also face rashes or marks post-waxing.
Charoo Chawla Anand, director, Blliis by Ravissant spa and salon, shares tips for rash-free waxing:
* Take a hot wax heater and heat the wax till it melts.
* Apply talcum powder on the body part which needs to be waxed.
* Use a spatula to apply warm wax on that area.
* Place wax strip on it.
* Pull the wax strip in the opposite direction of hair growth.
* To minimise discomfort, use hand pressure on the waxed area after the strip has been removed.
* Once you are through with waxing, clean with water and apply astringent.
* Then apply lotion to moisturise skin.
