wax play! one of my favorites!
Oooh, ooh, ooh. Wax play is just about my favorite thing to do. I like doing it to others, I like having it done to me, and I like doing it to myself. I just plain like it. I have a lot of good advice for the first time waxer, such as:
1.Start out with pure white, unscented candles. Dyes and fragrances can elevate the wax's temperature to unpredictable levels.
2.For easy cleanup, start out with a massage that includes a nice smelling oil. It'll get the waxee nice and relaxed, plus, it will prevent the wax from adhering to the skin and tiny hairs.
3.Start high. The further from the body the wax is dripped from, the less intense the sensation will be. As the waxee becomes accustomed, you can drip it from very close, and it feels good, depending on what her tolerance to heat is like.
4.Variety: You can drip, splash, and draw figures with the wax. Keep her guessing as to what's next, and the anticipation heightens immeasurably.
5. Safety: If you drip wax on and it pools in some areas, you can cause burns. The person who is doing the waxing should watch out for this, and just smooth the wax out with the flat of the hand to disperse the heat.
6.Contrast: Keep ice and cool water on hand. In addition to being a safety mechanism for cooling areas down quickly, you can use the ice to create a sense of contrast that will allow you to use lower temperatures of wax with more dramatic results.
7. Removal. A big knife. Yup. That's what I like. It carries a lot of psychological oomph, but it's really quite safe. You can pick out a big ol' knife and have the edge dulled, or you can use a very very sharp one. If you keep the blade parallel to the skin, you can flick and slice the wax off without damaging a hair on the terrified waxee's body. (Don't use this method if you've got a wiggler, though! The ability of the waxee to keep still is paramount.)You can also just pick it off with your fingers, too. This is especially good if you've got long, vampy fingernails. I do not, so I like the knife method.
8. Cleanup: If you spread out a big sheet before you start, it protects the surface beneath from the wax, and when you're done, you can bundle it all up and forget about cleanup till the next day.
9. Experimentation: Once you feel confident with the relatively low temps of the pure paraffin candles, try different colors that appeal to your eye and fragrances that you find arousing or evocative. It's a good idea to be wary of this if you have chemical sensitivities to dyes or fragrances, though.
10. Doing, and being done: As a very switchy girl, I can't emphasise enough the pleasure that lies on both sides of this equation. If you're feeling brave, consider experiencing both. It's lots of fun.
Have fun!
