If you think you're bad-waxing!

[apollo_24]

Just reminiscing a lovely waxing session.

So never worry if you don't think your good at waxing. Your never this bad? Or are you? Lol

I had the most HORRIFIC wax imaginable. And to this day I still can't believe it.

REALLY this IS true.

Shopping centre salon

I go in for a wax

Two ladies in there. The roller wax system had broken so they used the pot and spatula method.

I had too ladies attacking me at once. They were throwing wax on me all over the place, dripping it everywhere and kept pulling the strips off in the director of the hair growth.

Any one knows what the golden rule of waxing is. Pull off against the growth. I couldn't understand how they could be getting this wrong. So I asked how long she had been doing it for. She said about 10 years. But was reasonably new in the shop. The other lady was just fiddling around with more wax and strips at this point. After about 3 attempt at pulling the wax off the wrong way. I snatched the spatular out of her and advised her 'no... Look you do it like this!'

I then ended up giving them a quick crash course for 10 mins before they said. 'Yes sorry we are just Un familiar with the spatular method' OMG lol

So they then started back on me again but STILL got it wrong. Ladies I was in so much pain. In the end I jumped off the couch shouting. GET off me!!!!! Just keep away!!!

My skin way so red it was crazy. She then persuaded me to let her put after wax lotion on. I dubiously let her. She didn't think I had clocked it, but had, she secretly put loads of sterex tinted lotion on me to try and cover it up. And showed me, 'look, all fine she said' I was gob smacked. It all soaked through my clothing making it all brown. Plus hair was still present.

I went into the salon reception and asked to speak with the manager. Her face looked bemused as to why I would want the manager.

He came along and wanted me to pay full price. Haha I don't think so. Then we had a big argument. I advised him that if she said she had been waxing for 10 years then she's a bloody lier!!!!

Then the police where threatened to be called lol

Finally he said. Ok just pay half

HALF I screamed. You should be paying me for the training I've just given them.

So after more heated words he said I didnt have to pay anything and that I shouldn't come back again.

Lol like I would ever want to come back ever again. I was sooo sore.

Beat that for a waxing nightmare girls ;-)

Oh my god thats horrific!!!

I went for a full leg & bikini wax once, and on my inner right thigh i have a large mole, slightly smaller than a 5p (this was the first time i was getting waxed). When it came to waxing near the mole she put the wax strip OVER it!! Then when she went to remove it, it got stuck! She had to yank 3 times before it came off! I had a lovely red rectangle on the inside of my thigh!

Anyways this was the day before my holiday, by the end of my holiday, that red rectangle had turned brown!!! Darker than the rest of my leg! It was rather embarrasing!!

Oh my...how can they get away with treating people?! Jeez. Im glad you didn't have to pay, but it shouldn't have been after an argument, it should have been after an apology! Xx

 

[apollo_24]

I know. It's was just incredible that they thought everything was fine lol ekkkkk

They had probably never used a pot and spatula in their lives which is why they needed to double up for time.Its very important to master pot and spatula before you go on to another method.I wouldn't have hung around though,you may have a good few ingrowns this month.

Ive never used roller wax,do you pull the hair the opposite way to spatula method? Id have thought u would have removed the wax in the same direction. Xx

The roller just applies the wax otherwise there is no difference.
