Useful information

You should choose the right product. Our recommendation is to avoid “cold” waxing strips and roll-on systems, and instead opt for warm wax (film wax). The reason is that warm wax adheres only to the hair and not to the skin. For its removal (and at the same time the removal of hair), no strips are used, so when the wax is pulled off, it does not take skin cells with it, preventing irritation and “peeling” of the skin. Also, if you have had allergic reactions in the past to natural resin, or if you generally have extremely sensitive skin (especially at higher temperatures), then you should choose a product from the ELEMENTS film wax range or MEN Hellenia in drop form. These are hypoallergenic, as their raw material is not natural resin, and they also operate at lower temperatures.

Additionally, you should know that properly cleansing the area to be treated, using a specialized product such as Hellenia pre-waxing gel, helps reduce irritation.

To be honest, you can’t achieve truly “professional” hair removal unless you are a trained esthetician with technical knowledge of waxing. However, you can definitely get results that are very close to those you would achieve in a professional setting. Whichever Hellenia product you choose—especially with the complete Hellenia Hair Removal Kit—you have everything you need to achieve excellent results at home easily, quickly, and affordably. The process, for every type of application, is simple, and you can find detailed instructions on our YouTube channel: Simple Use Beauty.

If you’re looking for an easy and quick method without using warm wax, opt for facial hair removal strips with a formula that contains Aloe Vera, which delivers excellent results when used correctly. If you want something that removes even the most stubborn hair without the need for repeated applications, and provides professional results with precise hair removal, choose warm film wax.

Of course not. Waxing (if done correctly) not only does not negatively affect the skin in the long term, but it also helps it by exfoliating and renewing the epidermis.

The myth that it pulls the skin and creates wrinkles has been debunked.

Hair length: Make sure your hair is 0.5–1 cm long so that it can be easily gripped and doesn't require many passes.

Frequency: Make sure to wax regularly every 4–6 weeks. This weakens the hair and gradually reduces pain.

In general, you should know that during the first 2–3 times there may be some discomfort. It is reduced when the correct procedure is followed and the right product is chosen for each situation. However, with each subsequent session, you will notice that this initial discomfort gradually decreases.

No! Shaving while regularly waxing should be avoided as it disrupts hair growth, making your next wax more painful and less effective.

Try to avoid it! Shaving causes ingrown hairs, damages the skin and disrupts the follicles and hair growth, making the next waxing session less effective and more painful!
