Today we will learn with you what film wax is. And in general, what is it for? In addition, we will try to understand all the secrets and ways to use it. After all, it is not just that women and cosmetologists are interested in this tool. As it is not difficult to guess, we will talk about depilation. Wax in this matter is used extremely often. It is convenient, practical and gives just great results. But what is film wax? How to use it? Is it even worth it? Or is it better to give preference to older and more proven methods?
Depilation is
First of all, we have to figure out what kind of process we are going to deal with. Maybe you don’t need to get acquainted with beeswax at all! As already mentioned, the topic of depilation will be touched upon.
What is this? This term describes the process of removing hair from the human body in various places. It's about unwanted hair. Usually, depilation means "sweeping" the armpits, legs, face, arms andeven the bikini area. This procedure is accompanied by pulling out the hairs from the root. Something like hair removal.
Depilation is a question that worries all girls. There are many different ways to carry out the procedure. Each of them has its own characteristics, advantages and disadvantages. Film wax (in granules and not only) is in great demand. And yes, waxing in general. But what is it? How to carry it out correctly? What are the pros and cons of the process? Do I need to somehow prepare the skin for such a procedure?
Waxing
Before talking about film wax, it is worth understanding wax depilation in principle. After all, if you understand how this process occurs, then it will be much easier to deal with the "film" option.
What is waxing based on? On pulling out hairs in unwanted places with wax. And warm. On average, beeswax that is applied to the skin should be heated to 60 degrees Celsius. You “smear” it over the area, quickly apply a special paper strip on top, wait for a while (about 30 seconds for the wax to harden a little), and then with a sharp movement tear off the applied product from the skin against the growth of “vegetation”.
Yes, it can be unpleasant and painful, but this option will save you hair for a long time in places where you do not want to have it. This method is used with caution in the bikini area, but on the face, arms, armpits and legs - no problem. But what isfilm wax? How is it different from the usual? How to use it?
Film
Well, we figured out the waxing. But it was about ordinary wax. How is it different from film? And is there any difference at all? Actually, yes.
Hot film wax is the best depilation wax. The process will be less painful and also faster in some cases. With all this, it is generally accepted that this approach provides high-quality hair removal.
Basically, film depilatory wax is a new word in body hair removal where it is needed. Many note that this kind of tool not only qualitatively removes "vegetation", but is also universal. That is, it is suitable for the bikini area, and for the legs, and for the face, and for the hands. This, of course, pleases.
What happens
It is worth paying attention to one interesting fact - the release form of our today's wax. The thing is that beeswax itself is produced and supplied in one form - solid, cold. Either you will find it as a mass, to which you need to additionally glue a special piece of paper for pulling out hair, or a completely ready-to-use product - wax strips.
But the film wax in this sense has a somewhat unusual look. It is available either in granules or in tiles. The second option resembles a chocolate bar. So remembering the release forms is not so difficult. With all this wax strips with a "film option"cannot be found. After all, the depilation process itself is slightly different. What are the advantages and disadvantages of this method? How to bring it to life?
Pros
Film wax at home is not yet used as often as we would like. All this is due to the fact that he has just begun to gain distribution among women. And now this option for solving problems with the removal of vegetation on the body is winning the hearts of both cosmetologists and girls.
What are the advantages of this method? There are a lot of them. The first thing that is constantly emphasized is less painful sensations during depilation. Yes, it cannot be compared with sugaring, but all the same, if depilation is carried out with ordinary beeswax, then you will notice what a difference there will be in sensations.
Next, it's versatility. Film wax is suitable for all skin types, for all areas of the body. Both for the ordinary and the sensitive. Many do not dare to remove hair with this remedy in the bikini area, believing that it will be painful and unpleasant. Not at all. Film wax reviews in this regard receive only positive. There will be some discomfort, but the pain is such that "the eyes go to the forehead" - no.
Another advantage of this product is its low melting point. Any wax must be melted before use, only then applied to the skin. An ordinary bee requires 60 degrees, but a film one requires 40-45. In some cases, options with 37 degrees are even possible. This means that the process will not require much effort from you.
Also film waxeasy to apply. Also a small advantage, which is repeatedly emphasized by many. You can use this option at home or in the salon without any problems. There is nothing difficult in this.
Flaws
But not everything is as good as it seems at first glance. After all, any depilation has its pros and cons. We have already talked about the advantages that our current type of wax has. What can be said about its shortcomings? Or do we have some kind of miracle cure, perfect in every sense?
Not at all. There are also disadvantages to film wax, although there are not so many of them. For example, often in inept hands, this tool will crumble and crumble. And already immediately after application to the skin. Depilation will have to be done very carefully.
In addition, in some cases, the cost of funds is also singled out as a disadvantage. Everyone is already accustomed to ordinary wax, it has become interesting to many. Therefore, the price for it is set humanely. But film wax is a professional tool, which is also an innovation at the moment. Looking at the total cost, it doesn't seem like much. Sometimes a bag of funds costs 150-160 rubles. But it is enough, to be honest, for only 1-2 applications. Yes, the consumption of funds is much lower than that of ordinary beeswax, but when buyers see a price tag of 200 rubles for a small package, they are a priori dissatisfied. But with experience, even the price tag begins to suit.
In principle, oftenthey also note that they have to act not only carefully, but also in compliance with all the rules of the process. Depilation with film hot wax may not give the maximum return if something is done wrong. The bee variant is less "capricious" in this area.
How to use
So we have fully learned what we have to deal with. But how to use film wax? Ordinary - understandable, but this one? After all, if you buy our current type of wax, you will notice that there are no special paper strips in it that will have to be torn off. But how then to work with a warm remedy?
Everything is very easy and simple. To begin with, you must thoroughly clean the treated area of \u200b\u200bthe skin from dirt and dust, then dry it. Do not apply wax on a wet surface - it will not give the desired result.
Have you cleared your skin? Now apply special talc on it. It is usually included with film wax. If we are talking about granules, then, as a rule, this component is replaced by oil there. Warm up the wax, apply to the treated area against hair growth. At the same time, distribute the product evenly with a spatula, it must be pressed against the skin quite strongly.
Important: leave a small "nose" on one side. A corner that you can grab onto with your fingers. Is the wax applied to the skin? Then it remains to wait about 10 seconds. Longer is better, about 15-20. Ready? You can tear off the wax from the skin with a sharp movement by the left edge. And that's it, nothing more from younot required. By the way, if we are talking about the granular version, talc or oil (if they were not included) is not needed.
There were problems
Sometimes girls complain about some problems that arose at the time of using the product. Film wax at home can be used for depilation without problems, but skill and practice are needed.
If you notice that the product itself does not stretch well, and also does not remove hairs, do not rush to tear it off the skin. This is a clear indication that you should wait another 10 seconds. Then try to tear the product off the skin.
Are there hairs on the site? This indicates that you did not press the spatula well against the skin during application, the product was only superficially distributed. It is recommended to repeat the procedure.
When wax remains on the body, it is a direct indication of uneven application. It is worth correcting the situation by "pushing" the excess mass to the edges of the treated area. If the tool does not harden, know that you have applied too much of it. You need to either redistribute the existing wax, or remove it altogether.
Conclusions
It's time to take stock of our today's conversation. As you can see, film wax is a new word in depilation. This option is well suited for both home and salon use.
In general, it should be noted right away - before using the tool on your own on particularly sensitive areas, practice. Film wax is easy to handle, but you still have some skillshould be. In principle, if you do not know what to choose - ordinary bee or "film", it is recommended to test both approaches. In any case, the second option, with certain skills, makes depilation not only less painful, but also easier to carry out.
