How to Remove Epilation Wax From Legs

Epilation is a process of hair removal whereby hair is removed from below the skin's surface at its root. This can be accomplished using a variety of methods including sugaring, waxing, epilating shavers, electrolysis and tweezing. Epilation by waxing produces smooth, hair-free legs that last for 2 to 6 weeks. During the waxing process, you may have residual wax left on your legs. This can easily be removed using everyday products.
