That’s odd. Stretching stretching stretching, very light with the pre wax oil. Like half of one drop and massage it in, then blot with a wax strip. Not enough and it will remove more dead and living skin than hair and too much won’t remove hardly anything.
Apply very thinly.
Wax wise, I vaguely remember when I first started having trouble with creme waxes, like having to go over legs all the time so I started trying out everything until I was happy one pot at a time. Gets you confident in your techniques aswell as more adaptable. I currently use just wax blue but really happy with jax wax in white. I very rarely have to go over again, but while it could be the wax it could also be I’ve been doing it 8 years now and I’ve just got better over time and you could just need more practice as you don’t do enough of them to feel that confidence.
