I feel like there's a million posts on eyebrow waxing but I'm adding mine for good measure
I'm from the UK and went to college there, so I'm trained in both strip & hot waxing for eyebrows but have always used strip as I find it easier to use on brows and gives a better result. I'd never once had a problem with my brow waxes nor had I ever had a complaint...
Since moving to NZ and working in a salon here I've had 3 clients complain about their eyebrows scabbing after a wax, and me personally too!! I know its not the temperature because I always test the wax on my wrist first, I never go over the same area more than once and it's only been 3 clients out of the hundreds I've done yet my boss is making me feel terrible about it! I put my scabbing down to the fact I was stressed out at the time (which I know makes your skin more sensitive) but my boss doesn't accept that as a reason.
Is there a particular brow wax I should be using? When I came to this salon they'd been using lycon vanilla strip wax and some lycon white hot wax- the hot wax is shit tbh and it doesn't remove any hairs so I've just been using the strip but now all of a sudden I'm having these complaints! I don't know if anyone before me ever had any problems that my boss is keeping from me but it seems it is my fault and not the wax!??
Any advice? whether it be changing my wax or changing my technique....
