clean + easy - 22-06-06, 06:58 PM

does anyone use this system?

Is it any good, I'm currently using pot and spatula as well as phd system, but would be interested to find out what people think of this system.

If anyone has one they'd like to get rid of pm me x

Hi hun it's similar to the method I showed you with the phd system as it comes out thinner unlike the pot and spatula method (which I also showed you). Instead of the disposable head you get with the phd you use a roller head. Also it has cartridges of wax instead of tubes. x

I just slightly tried the roll on method at college when we were learning and was not impressed but hey I was only learning and that's probably not a good idea.

I'm quite interested in the Australian Bodycare waxing system - it's like the PHD system which I think is good too. I would have thought the PHD would be a better and more hygenic system than the roll on method - anyone agree with this?

It's a roller system easy to use, easy to carry about, you can refill it using wax out of a pot (have to pour in gently over the bin in case of spillage, takes time to master).

I clean mine in between clients. It is so quick and easy and sOOOOOOOO much faster than spatula. My poor wax machine is sat in the back of the cupboard going moldy!!

HTH's ....Capital have VAT free days on 25th and 26th, why not buy one there and save £17.50 (ring up to reserve one I would).

Ive used Clean and Easy for 4 years....and use it for larger areas...full legs..half legs etc. I wouldnt change from roller waxing!
I use a traditional pot and spat method though, for facial waxing etc as I believe it to give more precise application.

Clean and Easy is and does "what it says on the tin"
I remove the heads after each client....clean with wax equipment cleaner and then submerge fully in a solution of Sterisure.
I attach a new head per client and off I go again...
I honestly do wish tho that Clean and Easy did a heater as Hive do...with more than 3 large cartridge compartments!

I got the clean and easy system and loved it for the quickness, but hated it for cleaning. I found the roller heads very difficult to get completly clean, and become a bit obssesive about thinking the heads were not clean. Hence I got rid of it about a month later! I have just got the Australian bodycare system and LOVE it! Very quick, lovely products and disposable! I would never change! Just my opinion, of course

If you wanna have a go or come and see PM me and can sort something out. Also you can buy at MK its £99 plus vat and well worth it, you get plenty to start you off with.

I've got the Australian bodycare system, it's fab. Much more hygenic than the clean & easy roller system, and once I've explained the difference my clients much prefer it to anything else.
It's soo quick, and really easy to transport around if you're mobile, and you can even get an in car adaptor to plug it into your cigarette lighter.
Worth every penny, and more.
