This method also removes hair from the roots if you do it right. The paper would rip as I was snatching off the wax. I’ve also tried using the paper material strips from FantaSea because it had great reviews, but that ended in disaster. You need something like baby oil or olive oil to remove it if you mess up or are just bad at it, which I have also had to do. I’ve tried using hot wax and waxing strips at home by myself, but wax is just so messy! And hard to remove from surfaces and more importantly your skin. Generally, this type of waxing doesn’t last me as long as using hard wax. It just depends on the person removing the wax. I don’t prefer to use waxing strips because I just don’t think it does as good a job as hard wax, but I have no evidence to back that up. I am naturally biased towards hard wax but I think this method is efficient. A few times when I couldn’t get to my waxing lady, I went elsewhere and found that they were using wax with waxing strips, rather than the hard wax where you don’t need any strips. Sometimes you don’t know what kind of wax will be available once you get to the salon. All estheticians are not made equal and if you’ve found one that you don’t mind paying monthly for, I say keep her and treasure her! They are a dime a dozen. Other waxes like sugar wax just take the hairs off the surface for the most part. Also, you are removing the hair from the roots. Total bliss (It’s worth a mention that these were Brazilian waxes, which is just removal of all hair in the bikini region). She was also able to see the exact direction of growth, which I don’t have access to. Four weeks without having to deal with hairs down there. When I went to Cary at the salon, her waxes would last me an entire month. That said, hard wax is the BEST method of hair removal.

it’s damaging to your skin (I’ve done this and was red and sore). Also, once you have waxed in a spot, you cannot go over it again. If you don’t wait the appropriate amount of time to remove it, it can come off in pieces and that just doubles the pain, because you have to go back and remove it.
If you don’t leave some “pull space” on the bottom of the wax to snatch it off (about 2 inches or so, which is actually hard to do), you have to peel it up and that is painful. It’s relatively easy getting it on there but snatching it off is another story.
There really is a technique to it and I could never manage to master it. The wax should be applied and when it hardens, you snatch it off in the opposite direction of your hair growth, which differs person to person. I love it– but I suck at it! I tried using hard wax myself once, and it was torture. It’s just a matter of getting used to it. No matter how many time you do it, you are essentially your ripping hair from the roots from a very sensitive region. There is a learning curve to Moom but before I get to that, I think it’s important to mention my other experiences with waxing.
In the end I came across Moom, an organic hair removal sugar wax, and I haven’t been disappointed. I went through waxing strips, Nair, hard wax, traditional wax with cloth and paper strips, and even shaved once after waxing (huge mistake in which I will explain later). For years, I had been going to the salon in which they used the hard wax. I really had to figure out what I wanted to use.
#MOOM SUGAR WAX HOW TO#
After the first three years of going to the salon every month and paying $50 + tip, I figured, I should learn how to do this myself! So I did, but it took some real time. I am not a waxing expert or an esthetician so proceed with caution. Just as a disclosure, I am writing this post based on my own personal experience.
