Waxing Tips 1:

To make waxing pain-free, moisturize the affected area about an hour before any hair is pulled. Moisturizing will soften your skin and hairs, helping them to come out painlessly.

To cut down razor burn, try shaving in the shower. Showering in warm water a few minutes before a shave is sure to soften the hairs, making them more easily removed.

Waxing Tips 2:
