Re-Using Wax- A HUGE NO-NO!
August 15, 2010 | Leave a Comment
Body Cafe has never ever even considered re-using wax. In the past (and the past being 15-20+ years ago, before our time, we have been the leaders here in hamilton for just 10 years!) Hot wax was a rare/expensive luxury so the Wax Pots were designed to seperate the hair from the wax & you would be left with hair-free wax, enabling you to use the wax again (ew yuk, gag!)
This method did not manage to filter out dead skin, diseases, blood or any skinny or small pieces of hair. I can only begin to imagine the cross-contamination that would fester away in the wax pots as they are a nice, warm breeding ground for any infections as the wax isn't boiling hot to kill them.
We are lucky enough at Body Cafe to be Experts in Brazilian waxing, and any form of Hot Waxing enabling us to purchase bulk amounts of wax to keep our prices down & keep our waxing methods sterile and infection free. Each time you visit us for a Brazilian, you will know you will get a fresh towel, a fresh piece of tissue to lie on, unused wax, gloves on the therapist and our spatulas & used wax disposed of hygienically. All of our equipment is sterilised after each wax, including wax pots and tweezers. You will be advised after your treatment on the best way to manage your fresh wax result to enable you not to get any infection once you leave our clinic in the open hair follicles after you visit.
