Your waxer should know not to double dip the wooden stick back into the pot after working on an area. Each time the waxer applies the wax to an area, they should throw it in the bin and pick up a new stick. Also, no matter how hot the wax is, they should not be blowing on it it to cool it off (editor's note: this is a real thing that happened to me). "Fanning the wax applicator lightly by hand is acceptable," Marie said.
