Sally Hansen Extra Strength Brazilian Bikini Waxing & Shaping Kit Reviews

Decent
Out of Sally Hansen's hair removal products, this one is the best. It's still pretty sticky, and doesn't remove from the skin cleanly, but it does okay with hair removal. The consistency is creamier and less syrupy than the other types. — 2 years, 3 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 1 people said helpful

Review subject
I am an experienced self-bikini waxer. I do not have particularly coarse hair. Put plain and simple, this stuff did not work for me. I could not seem to get it to the right consistency. It was extremely tacky - yes I know its hot wax, but this was absurd. Also, I could not get it off my skin, even after using all the tricks in the book! It was also very messy. There are a few pros however: it smelled nice, didn't irritate my skin, and I really like the little handle. It was helpful for not spilling on myself. Perhaps I just got a bad batch, but I would not use this product again. — 1 year, 10 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 2 of 3 people said helpful

love it
Its very hard to give yourself a brazilian wax. especially when you cant see it well. even the little mirror dosnt help much. the best way to tell is running your finger over the skin to feel for hair. HOW TO MAKE THIS WORK? 1.) figrue out where you want hair removed. (if you want to leave some behind, dont be afraid of not removing all of it). 2.) make sure your skin is very clean. do nto apply lotions or oils to skin before application. I can asure you it is a marketing thing and will make the wax come off. 3.) heat the wax and test it before you apply. it takes longer ot heat than gel wax and it cools fast. 4.) use a small application. the kti comes with large ones but a small one is easier. When applying, apply in a THIN LAYER. let the end of the applied wax be thick enough for you to get a good grip to remove it. 5.) be sure to hold your skin tight other wise you will end of with bruised skin and even bleed. ive done this for years myself and by pros. 6.) remove wax quickly! dont wait or go slow1 it will hurt more and do a bad job. and yes IT WILL BE PAINFUL ALWAYS. 7.) remove the wax before it dries completely other wise it becomes crispy and breaks. aftr removal put preasure on the skin with one hand. this may seem odd but it does make a difference. wait till you have completed on side before you start the next. do not apply azulene oil until you are completely finished. to remove wax from your hands, pour some oil on your hands and literally start rubbs them together. the wax comes of like kindergarden glue. wait at least a day before a shower. hot water will burn your skin and irritate it. Follow those instructions and read the directions in the kit carefully, and you be happy with the results! — 2 years, 4 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 13 of 15 people said helpful

TERRIBLE
DO NOT LISTEN TO ANY OF THE REVIEWS SAYING THIS IS GOOD BECAUSE IT SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! it doesnt even deserve one star but i am forced to give it one star. This is a horrible horrible product I dont even know where to start. First of all i couldnt even remove the lid without getting a sticky mess on my hands. and once the wax gets on your hands, its nearly IMPOSSIBLE to get it off. Its terribly sticky and its so so so so hard to get the correct consistancy and needs to be reheated way too often. It is horrrrrible!!!!!!!!! Then when you apply the wax it drips off the stick and gets everywhrere around you which is such a mess. Finally when i applied it to my hair and did the waxing procedure, the wax strips just left the wax AND hair behind. So i was left with a waxy mess which i could not remove myself. I tried reapplying the strips to get the wax off but all it did was tug at my skin and cause massive amountts of pain. I went to go get a profesional bikini wax the next and and they were luckyly able to get everythign off. For all the trouble that kit put me through, its much easier to just pay 25 dollars and have a profesional do it. Or if you insist of self waxing, purchase veet wax strips because the wax is already on the strip and all you have to do is rub it between your hands to heat it up and it actually does a good job removing the hair. AND it comes with wipes that get the excess wax off compleatly. There are just so many better alternative then buying this so do yourself a favor and spare yourself the pain and DO NOT PURCHASE THIS. oh did i mention that it left marks all over my skin, i guess it tugged it too hard or somthign but it left hicky/bruise like marks all over which took a week to go away. How embarresing. DO NOT PURCHASE — 1 year, 10 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 3 of 4 people said helpful

Worth the Money Savings
Yes, of course this product is going to be sticky and painful, but after a few tries you'll get the hang of it. There's a small window of perfection when it comes to heating the wax and at that point the product is great! While using it, I usually have to reheat it about 3 times, but for $10 this product is so worth learning to do it yourself, rather than paying top dollar at the spa. — 1 year, 11 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 2 of 3 people said helpful

No paper strips!
I saw all the reviews, but I didn't find this too sticky compared to other products. It will stick to your skin if you don't lightly baby oil it first, like the professionals do. But once the wax dries, you pull it right off and it gets all the hair. Beware - don't put it on too thick or it won't be flexible enough to pull off and it will break. Then you'll never get it off. And you'll probably have to microwave it more than once to keep it soft enough. But for $10, it's a great value. — 2 years, 4 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 1 people said helpful

Try only after getting a full bikini wax from a professional salon
This product works great for removing small areas of hair at a time. In order to have it works its best, read the instructions thoroughly. The reason why I recommend trying waxing by yourself at home after a professional waxing is because 1) It'll give you a good idea of how to maneuver the wax when its on your skin. Gives you more confident after it's been done before 2) After a good waxing, hair grows back softer and finer, so it won't be as much work when you try yourself. But I also want to add, take pain killers 30 minutes to 1 hour before trying this out! It helps a lot. But I do have trouble waxing the labia area though, I just can't bring myself to pull ...lol, any suggestions ladies? — 3 years agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 2 people said helpful

I really liked it
I really liked this and was able to do a Brazilian wax that I normally pay at least $80 at the salon for. I have very coarse hair, but I have been waxing it for about five years now. It takes some practice and it hurts, all waxing does. If you don't have a high tolerance for pain I would not recommend it on youself. I found that if you keep reheating it in the microwave it will be less sticky. FYI to the other posts salon wax sticks to everything too, you just don't notice it. I was really amazed at how well it worked. I have tried lots of other products and always ended up disappointed. The key is waxing your own bikini area is difficult no matter what product you choose and there are many people that just won't be able to do it. This product is the best I've seen if you are brave enough to try. — 3 years, 5 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 3 of 6 people said helpful

The best
This is by far the best waxing kit I have used. I wouldn't recommend using it in a carpeted area since the wax really sticks. It doesn't pull my skin just my hair which is really awesome. The no cloth strips is excellent since I personally don't like having to use strips. Of course waxing always hurts, but if you use it regularly, the hair becomes easier to pull out and less painful. One tip to help with the redness and swelling after, take an anti-inflammatory, like Advil or Aleve. — 3 years, 5 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 7 of 9 people said helpful

Finally
A wax that works on my corse hair. Here are a few things to keep in mind. all wax in messy and it hurts, for gosh sakes your pulling out hair. I put down some newpaper, set up everything so if anything drips or falls or gets knocked over i can just roll up the paper and put it in the trash, easy clean up ladies. The only down side is you hove to wax quckly, not an hourly job, because after 10 min the wax need to be reheated. — 4 years agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 3 people said helpful
