Look, it's okay if the person you're missing the most right now is your waxing esthetician... we get it. As we practice social-distancing, we're all missing our regular scheduled appointments that keep us feeling fresh and healthy. And since we don't know when we will be allowed to return to "normal"... well, it may be time to invest in some at-home hair removal tools in the interim.
While we do recommend the products below, remember, always proceed with caution. We bet you have shaving down pat, but if you need a few pointers with waxing, try reaching out to your go-to professional who can guide you through the process.

When Billie was started, the founder wanted to provide female-oriented products but without the "pink tax" that drove up the cost. Enter, the Razor Starter Kit that for $9, includes a razor handle, two blades and a magnetic holder. The thicker feel of the razor makes it easier to grip and the shave is super-smooth.
It can be terrifying to apply hot wax to your body without expert supervision. Not only could it burn you but then, well... it has to come off somehow and inflicting pain on yourself isn't exactly human nature. For an easier approach, consider this set that includes 24 double-sided strips. It's made of soft gel wax that doesn't require heat but still gets the job done.
If you normally go in to wax everything off every month, switching to shaving may be a painful process. And your skin may flare up as a result. That's why it's better to use a razor like this one for sensitive pores. It has added moisture to hydrate the skin while a pivoting rounded head helps to glide the blade easier and more effectively.
