Drugstores sell waxing strips that are often applied incorrectly in problem areas. The result is severe bruising, injuries and a lot of torn hair. You can do waxing yourself in zones such as upper lip or eyebrows. But it is recommended to have zones such as lower legs, thighs, chest, back, armpits, buttocks, bikini line or arms performed by a professional depilatory specialist to reduce the risk of injury and skin irritation. The end result is also much cleaner, as the zones can be treated better than by yourself.
