Waxing – Breaking Hairs, not Removing

Hi, I think you should try good hair moving cream.

Tried that & burnt my skin!!

I would just get your legs waxed every 4-6 weeks, hair any longer will just hurt you. Hair breakage comes down to genetics (do you find your head hair breaks easily?) or the waxers technique. She/he should be pulling the wax strip up (towards your upper body) & along parallell to your skin not pulling upwards (towards the ceiling) as this can break the hairs. To try get a better wax make sure to exfoliate the night before to get rid of all the dead skin & to let loose any hairs trapped under the skin 🙂

I dont find waxing painful what-so-ever so length is not a factor.
Have been to variuos waxers & it doesnt really make much of a difference.
My head hair doesnt really break that easiliy – it is fine (but lots of it) if thats a factor?
And always exfoliate – I guess this problem must be just perculiar to me I guess!
Thanks for all the replies!

If it is too long it tends to break off more.
I’m sorry I don’t really have an solutions. I think it must be typical for fine hair as it happens to mine to no matter what I do.

i didnt know that – thought I was doing the right thing letting it get long. None of the waxing places ever said that … its why we come to beautyheaven, lol

I always find the longer the hair is the more waxing hurts, it could be the length, the wax itself or the angle the the strip is being pulled off.
