But with the many different types of wax available, knowing which body wax to choose for which part can be confusing.

The different types of waxing for face and body that we can use for hair removal are:

- Soft Wax: Soft wax, also known as strip waxing, is used by spreading a thin layer of the warm body wax on top of the skin. This is typically used on larger areas of the body, like our arms and legs. It is applied directly onto the skin by using either a wooden stick or a roller. Then a strip of cloth is put over it and pulled off, removing hair.

- Hard Wax: Hard body wax is typically used for smaller, more sensitive areas including the upper lip, underarms and bikini area. This type of body wax is applied warm, directly onto the skin. A benefit of hard types of wax with manicure and pedicure combo is that they only bind to the hair, never the skin.

- Fruit Wax: Fruit body wax works just like hard body wax and is recommended for sensitive skin. It comes loaded with fruit extracts like berries and plum, which means these types of wax are antioxidant-rich and contain vitamins that nourish the skin. However, using this won't leave any marks, and they double as skincare as well, which is a plus.

- Chocolate Wax: Chocolate wax is another popular option available at most salons. Chocolate body wax also contains glycerine and oils like soybean and almond, and is anti-inflammatory, which makes it the ideal choice for skin that is prone to redness.

- Sugar Wax: Sugar wax is typically made from sugar, lemon and hot water and has been around for centuries. Sugar pulls the root of the hair out of the skin, much like soft and hard body wax; however it's made with natural ingredients, which is ideal for people with sensitive skin.

On top of that, if we are a first timer with waxing or any other beautifying procedure, hearing the salon lingo at our first appointment can be overwhelming.
