How to use hot wax (film wax) professionally

Hot wax (also known as film wax) is applied directly to the skin and removed once set - no strips required. It’s a go-to choice for smaller, sensitive areas and for clients who prefer a more controlled application.

Best practice workflow (aligned to your training):

Cleanse first with a professional cleanser.
Apply a minimal amount of suitable pre-wax product to protect the skin and support glide.
Always test temperature before applying to your client.
Apply in the direction of hair growth using a wooden spatula; build an edge for easy removal.
Remove against hair growth, keeping the pull close to the skin.
Finish with an appropriate post-wax product to calm and comfort the skin.

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the difference between hot wax and warm (strip) wax?

Hot (film) wax is applied directly and removed once set without strips, making it popular for precise work and sensitive areas. Warm wax is typically removed with strips and is often used for larger areas depending on therapist preference.

Can Gold Film Hot Wax be used on larger areas like legs and arms?

Yes. While film wax is often chosen for smaller or sensitive areas, some formulas are designed to be spread smoothly across larger areas like legs and arms too.

How short can hair be for hot wax to remove effectively?

With the right technique, our high-performing formula, hot wax can remove hair from as short as 1–2mm.

How do I get the cleanest removal with film wax?

Apply an even layer, create a thicker edge for grip, let it set fully, then remove against hair growth with a low, close-to-the-skin pull.

What should I use after hot waxing?

Complete the service with a suitable post-wax product to help soothe the skin and leave a comfortable, professional finish.
