What is the recommended angle for applying soft wax with a spatula?

The recommended angle for applying soft wax with a spatula is 45 degrees. This angle allows for an even application of the wax to the skin, ensuring it adheres effectively to the hair without being too thick or too thin. Applying the wax at this angle helps to minimize the risk of pulling skin or causing irritation, as it creates a smoother surface for the wax to grip the hair.

When using a spatula at a 45-degree angle, it also enables better control and precision during the application, allowing the esthetician to cover the desired hair area efficiently. This technique promotes the best results in hair removal processes, ensuring that the wax adheres properly to the hair shafts for effective removal.

Other angles may lead to uneven application or increase the likelihood of discomfort during the waxing process, making 45 degrees the most effective choice for optimal results.
