If it is practical, what product can I buy that let's me do it?
And to take the next step, how am I supposed to wax my own back?

Doing your chest and belly can be done by yourself. As far as your armpits and back I would suggest getting the help of a friend. IF you have never waxed before I would say go and get a professional to do it at least once to make sure that you can take the pain and you will know how to react.
Had a friend that tried to wax her own legs for the first time and couldn't understand why she wasn't really pulling anything out. Turned out she was applying it correctly and bc she thought it would hurt wasn't putting the effort to really pull.
For do it urself the only thing I can suggest is wax works better than sugaring. As far as brands I'm not sure what all is out there.
In the long run the salon will be cheaper and safer (no flinching on your part and no fear that wax will be too hot) plus its being done by a professional. Take a couple advil before going, relax and try to enjoy someone else pampering you. Try not to dwell on the sting it gets easier over time. :)

Let a pro do it so u dont get hurt. Be prepared for the hair to grow back!!! (it may get picky!!) My sister used 2 work at a salon and it takes alot of talent 2 wax your own back!!

I would recommend to have it done at a salon, in the long run it's cheaper because they can do it all at once and also, if you try to do it yourself, you will flinch and not get it done right.
If you were only doing your chest, do it yourself, but if you are doing your back, just go to a salon.
Also, if a friend helps you out, they usually have no experience and it will hurt!

I think your last question answers the first two. If you can't reach it - how are you going to wax it by yourself? You either need a spouse or friend to help you or you need to go somewhere to get it done.
Also, if you do try it, try it in small sections first so you don't get stuck covered in wax and no way to remove it.

you might need to go to a professional because that is alot of hair and you might notice you have to pull several times in the same area which may irritate the skin and make your pours bleed.also maybe you should try some Nair it is less painful and alot cheaper

i dont know how you can even wax your own back. if you can do it, that is some serious talent.
i would recommend you go somewhere to get it done.

I agree with dotcomr.... go to a salon. Take advil or something similar before you go. It will help a little.

It will hurt so bad if you do it yourself. Go get it done. It would be so much better.
