I used some of those diy wax strips on my legs! They didnt work (they were pretty cheap anyway) but the thing is ive managed to get the wax all over the inside of my bath!!! Any tips on how to get it off easily?

Almost all of that wax is water soluble, which means if you run hot water over it (or even cold, but hot works faster) the wax will dissolve. It will take a few minutes but keep pouring the water over it and rubbing with a sponge or wash cloth. Alcohol or polish remover will work to but it isn't necessary. I know it seems sticky but the wax is mostly made up of sugar which is dissolved by water.

They sell wax remover at places like Sally's, but it seems to me that is is the same thing as isopropyl alcohol. Try that with a Popsicle stick, once you have removed most of the wax go over it with an oil IE baby oil, this usual dissolves the wax, you can use the OIL on your skin too.
Try seeing an Esthetician for your next wax. LOL!

Do not wax. It WOULD look really weird, especially if you've got hair everywhere else. If you've worried about looking too hairy, maybe you could cut some of the length off your chest hair. It can make it look less darker, hence less hairier.

Put some ice in baggie, then hold it on the wax until it gets cold and chip the wax off.You may want to spread a newspaper in the bottom of the tub to collect the chips.
