How to choose and use a canned wax melter?

The method of removing excess hair with wax is called waxing.

A can-type Voskoplav is rarely used at home. This is due to the fact that it is quite difficult to find a device with a small capacity.

Canned wax melters are manufactured by companies that deal with equipment for beauty salons.

• bowl volume;
• availability of additional options;
• the number of containers for heating.

There are a few tips to choose from when choosing a good wax melter.

• The presence of a thermostat and thermostat will allow the use of various types of materials. Such models are suitable not only for wax, but also for paraffin.
• It is important to choose among the products of well-known manufacturers. So it is possible to choose a high-quality and safe device.
• The lid should be comfortable. Otherwise, there is a risk of burns.
• You can pick up an apparatus with a spatula included, but it will be more expensive.
• It is worth paying attention to the time required for the device to warm up. This does not affect the quality of the procedure, but it makes it longer.

It is worth abandoning the purchase if the seller cannot provide quality certificates or offers the product at a significantly reduced price. Such an apparatus may be harmful to health. It is definitely worth checking the wax heater for foreign odors. The harsh "aroma" of plastic should make you refuse to buy. It is also important to check the smoothness of the knobs to switch modes.

The canned wax melter allows you to use a mass based on plant extracts and oils. You can use a universal wax or one that is designed for a specific area of ​​the body. Each type of mixture has a specified melting point. This criterion is quite important, because sometimes the wax melter simply cannot warm up the mass correctly. The wax for the procedure can be in granules or solid, in disks. In the first case, small capsules melt and turn into a homogeneous mass.

Canned wax melters are especially good in that they can heat a large amount of material to a high temperature as evenly as possible. After warming up, the wax is applied to the skin with a spatula or other tool. The material in the granules turns into a film when solidified. Typically, this type of wax has good elasticity, so it works well even on relief areas of the body. The low melting point material is great for delicate areas. It does not burn and makes it possible to remove all hair the first time.

Canned wax melters are rarely used at home.Much more often they can be found in beauty salons or at professional craftsmen. However, the model with a small melting pot is very good for personal use. The canned wax melter heats the composition in the bowl under the influence of temperature and pressure. When using, it is important not to forget about safety rules so as not to get burned.

The peculiarity of the canned wax melter is that the device can be left plugged in even after removing the bowl. However, in addition, it is worthwhile to read the manufacturer's recommendations in the instructions. The device is quite simple to use.

• Install the wax heater on a flat surface.
• Open the lid.
• Place the wax composition in a clean, dry bowl.
• Close the lid and connect the wax heater to the mains. Usually, a successful switch-on is signaled by the inclusion of a light bulb or a sound signal.

In most cases, you do not need to press additional buttons; heating starts immediately automatically. On some models, you need to turn the knob. It usually takes about 30-40 minutes to melt a full bowl of wax. There are powerful models that do it in just 15 minutes. Every 5-10 minutes, you can open the lid and check the condition of the wax. It should be noted that canned wax melters do not have transparent windows, so this is the only way to evaluate the melting of the material. After the end of heating it is necessary to remove the bowl with wax using special handles. Usually these holders are made of plastic.

After warming up, select the keep warm function. This will keep the wax working for as long as required. If you can see that the material is thickening, then the temperature should be increased. The program names may differ depending on the manufacturer.

Carrying out the waxing procedure at home is quite simple. Before applying the wax, you should cleanse the skin; this can be done while the wax melter is warming up. The warm material is applied in a small strip to the skin with a spatula, exclusively for hair growth. A strip is applied to the same place, pressed and sharply torn off against the growth of the hairline.

It is important to remove any residual wax immediately after the procedure. After the end of the procedure, it is necessary to treat the skin with a soothing cream or lotion. After work, the wax heater itself should be disconnected from the network and left to cool completely. A gauze cloth is moistened in vegetable oil to remove wax from the bowl.
