Why is Hard Wax so much better than Soft Wax?

One of the most frequently asked questions in the waxing world is what is the difference between soft wax vs hard wax? Well, where should we start!? First we only and HIGHLY recommend Mermaid Wax Next Generation Premium Hard Wax. I haven't use soft wax in years so I purchased soft wax from Starpil for this demo. Soft Wax adheres to the skin, not the hair. You can only go over an area one time with soft wax, otherwise the skin can tear and come off with it. Soft Wax is applied VERY thin. If you apply it too thick it will be a pain in the butt to get off. Soft Wax also requires a strip to be removed. Hard Wax adheres to the hair, not the skin. This means you can apply multiple strips over the same area and the skin is safe. Hard Wax dries on its own so it doesn't need anything to remove it.

The hard wax- I fell in love with years ago, once I learned it does not tear off your skin like the soft wax can. Hard wax attatches to the hair, not the skin. I had a horrible underarm hair removal experience with soft strip wax years ago. Took me a while to trust any kind of wax after that experience. After my armpits healed. I started epilating. Once my arm pits got use to an epilator for a certain number of years, I learned about hard wax and have been using hard wax to remove my underarm hair for years now, & I love it. After years of just doing my arm pits, im going to start being more brave enough to finally start doing my private area. 😫😫😫😫

No body explained it so well like you. Thank you so much!! I was applying thin strips of hard wax, and took eternity to take it off.... Love you 😘

I'm graduating from my nail tech class this September and next I'm getting my wax tech and lash tech license I'm so glad I found this video!

First very first time that I find somebody that really explains very well! I know it might sound awkward but Can you please tell us how to start practicing if we are new in the field! Also share your experience when you first started Thank you so much! 🙂🤗

I definentely always prefer using hard wax over soft wax.

I really appreciate your videos. I'm thinking of doing my own waxing because of cleanliness. I don't feel comfortable with someone else waxing my private areas, without knowing any information, regarding their cleaning practices. Your videos are extremely helpful.

Okay, that explains why I was having such a hard time with the Gigi wx - I was applying it too thickly.

Definitely investing in hard wax, though (it's similar to the Nair microwaveable wax; which I always loved using, as it was so easy to use and never failed at removing the unwanted hair).

Thank you for explaining the difference. I was unfortunately affected by the thin wax not used properly during a Brazilian and had skin damaged (right before my wedding) I was definitely in a lot of pain and took a few days to heal. Places I've gone used a combination of both. Was considering just doing it from home. Because I have sensitive skin I'll be sure to stick with hard wax! Thanks again! & Happy New Year!

Thank you! This video was really helpful. I have never waxed before, but I plan to start waxing soon instead of shaving. I am definitely trying the hard wax!

I had an esthetician that only used hard wax. She said to me the same things you said when she talked about only using hard wax. It definitely hurt less because I used to get waxed at a nail salon and they used soft wax. I’d get my legs and eyebrows done with her. I later on went Brazilian and it didn’t hurt as much and the results were great! She left later on but there’s another esthetician willing to use only hard wax on my Brazilian area. I can do soft wax on my eyebrows but not my Brazilian area.

I just had my first hard wax done today and I'm grateful for your vlog I really did not want to do strips especially on coarser hair I insisted on hard wax after watching yr vlog in the UK hard wax is called soft wax and then there's strip wax. Thanks for your vlog...really thank you

[mahirahussain]

I have only ever used soft wax, but after watching this I want to go out and buy hard wax looks so much easy and not time consuming!!!

[calithunder]

This video makes me think that anything can be understood if you have someone who explains it correctly and understandably!! ~~Thanks!

[Marilyn]

I'm a guy who just purchased hard wax to remove facial hair. Hopefully it will do the trick. I found soft wax to be slightly hit and miss at the best of times.

[lauranewbie]

Thanks to you, I think I found my preferred method of hair removal. Can't wait to order your Mermaid wax! Thank you.

[mikaykayyyzzak]

Absolutey love your videos. You have taught me so much about waxing. I am adding it to my services menu ❤️ Im waiting for my starpil wax to arrive. It's so expensive to ship here to New Zealand.

[Risharnec]

I thought you are meant to remove the soft wax in the opposite direction of the hair growth?
