Home Made Wax for Hair Removal

Wax can be made at home and there is a very easy method for that. Why bother about going to the beauty parlour for that? If you have  microwave, sugar, honey , dark corn syrup ( optional ) and lime juice at home, you can make the wax easily at home.

Let me tell you the method.

Take a microwave safe bowl.put in a cup of sugar with 2 tbsp of honey. If you have dark corn syrup you can use that also or you can use a tablespoon more honey.
Keep it in high for 3-4 minutes till the sugar starts dissolving. Add the lime juice and mix it well stirring continuously. Keep it again in the microwave for about 5 minutes to get your home made wax ready with in 15 minutes. You have to let the wax cool a bit and then use.

How to use Homemade Wax:

You have to apply Talcum powder before you apply the wax. You have to apply the wax, with a butter knife or some other blunt knife or spatula, in the direction of the growth of hair. Then keep a wax strip on the top , press it down and then pull it in the opposite direction of the growth. Lo!! your unwanted hair is gone.

Warning:

First you have to know how to wax and remove your hair by yourself. Get someone's help first preferably a beautician. It is actually very easy to do it on the stove top too but it is a little tedious.
This is a recipe from a friend of mine. So do please check it out if you are allergic or not. You have to use hygienic strips for removing hair with. Else you might get infections.
