How It Works: Whether you're having it done at your favourite salon or doing it at home, the process looks similar. It can either be done with warm wax that is applied to an area of skin then removed when it hardens, or using a thinner layer of wax applied to an area that is removed via a thin cloth (typically mueslin).
How Much It Hurts: "It hurts more depending on the quality and experience of your waxer and definitely feels raw for a day or two after," said assistant beauty editor, Sarah Siegel. "Each time I get waxed, I think I was in the room for close to an hour, just to find out it's been about 15 minutes tops."
