Maybe you're an avid bikini-waxer. Perhaps you've gone a few times but generally think it too expensive to make a habit. Or maybe you'd just like to have a clean bikini line for summer. Whatever your reasons are, you can wax at home for far less cost and less pain than at a beauty salon.

If you've become a monthly bikini-waxer, you may come to find that it's a rather expensive grooming ritual. Even if you only wax once every few months, the cost can add up. With most salons and spas charging upwards of $70, it may benefit you and your pocket book to learn how to wax at home. If your pain threshold just barely gets you through a professional waxing, this may not be a viable option for you. But if you're able to withstand inflicting the pain on yourself, and you're insistent on a clean bikini area, then you can be assured, there's no reason you can't do it yourself.

Takeaways
  • Hard wax doesn't require a muslin strip and doesn't stick to your skin.
  • When used with a soothing oil first, the wax completely removes hair and leaves no residue behind.
Did You Know?
Professional waxing can cost $70, plus tip. At-home waxing kits don't have to be complicated to use and cost around $9.

I'm so glad I'm old enough not to have to worry about this anymore. Talk about painful! Love the article, though.
