Leg waxing leaves the skin silky smooth for four to six weeks. Waxing also works well on the stomach, brows and upper lip. Waxing often results in a slower hair return. Each waxing permanently destroys some hair roots and space between the hairs increases. Less hair returns and the returning hair becomes finer.
Much hair eventually is gone permanently.
Removing facial hair does not make it grow back darker. This is usually due to exposing skin to the sun within 48 hours after hair removal. For best results, use a sunblocker on newly treated areas. Types of waxes Special waves have been developed for hair removal that contain combinations of waxes, such as paraffin and beeswax, oils or fats, and resins that help the wax adhere to the skin. Hot waxes are applied as a thin layer is applied to the skin in the direction of the hair growth.
