Question

Homemade wax for removing hair

Answer 1

Materials:
2 cups sugar
1/4 cup lemon juice
1/4 cup water
Instructions:
Mix all together, boil until it reaches 250 degrees F. Pour into a jar. When ready to use, microwave for about 10 to 20 seconds to soften. Put it on warm, put your strip of cotton on, rub in the direction of the hair growth and yank it off (opposite of hair growth). Try not to get it on too thick (I use a Popsicle stick for an applicator). A tip for keeping the sugar at the right temperature is to use one of those small beverage warmers (like single hot plates for one cup). Just make sure the container that you put the sugar in wouldn't melt when left sitting on it. A glass measuring cup works gr

Answer 2

1 cup sugar
2 Tbl. lemon juice
2 Tbl. water.

Mix in a saucepan and boil for 8-15 minutes, or until 250 degrees (soft ball stage). Then pour it into a little Rubbermaid container and leave it to cool down a bit. Keep refrigerated. It can be heated up in the microwave...but be careful not to get it too hot and burn yourself. Also, don't do this if you're not familiar with how to wax, haven't done it before, etc...


Waxing really does make your hair grow in lighter over time. Because the wax gets into the hair follicle and pulls the hair from the root, it grows back less thick than when the shaft is shaved.
