Paraffin wax when ??

[lissa]

hi ladies !!
ok quick question i have lots of pedicures in tomorrow , it's been a long time since i worked in a salon so can someone tell me when you are doing a paraffin wax ped do you put the wax on after the soak but before evertything else or do all the cuticle work, then apply the wax before the massage ????

Hi I would normally put the heated treatment after the massage leaving a fair amount of product on to penetrate and rehydrate. Some systems put the heat treatment in before cuticle work especially if the cuticle is overgrown and adheared to the nail plate as it makes the removal easier my preference is at the end as it finishes off the pedi nicely.

Hiya, i usualy do it before i massage at the end so make sure i get it all off then give a nice relaxing massage before polishing but realy how ever is easier for you to work! x

I do it after the massage so that it's layered over the massage medium, then I do the cuticle & nail work as they are much softened & easier to work, and finish by polish if they want it.
