Comments about Parissa Hot Wax Kit:
I don't write reviews and I was very skeptical of buying an at home wax kit, however, I wanted to give it a shot because monthly salon visits get pricey (I used for bikini area).
This product is great, I was shocked! I will definitely be buying again and will continue to use.
At first I was disappointed because when I would try to peel the wax off it was cracking (it woudl still remove the hair, but it was a pain to pull the same "strip" 4 times because it kept breaking), but I realized I was letting it dry too long so it became rock hard. Also, it took me a few times to learn how thick I need to apply the wax, I was applying it too thin (therefore it was drying faster and cracking). Once I got the hang of it, it was working wonders! It removed most hair, there were a few that I had to go back and tweeze (but the same thing happens at the salon).
I was worried how well the product would wash off as I had some wax left over. Usually my salon provides me with a wax removal product. This kit did not come with one, but all in all I found I didn't need it as it washed right off in the shower.
I would reccommend you heat the product as per the instructions. Mine got a little too hot and it became stringy which made a mess!
Overall, this is a fantastic alternative to my salon visits, and a very inexpensive one at that. Once I get the hang of it (after a few more tries) I am confident I will be more and more impressed.

Comments about Parissa Hot Wax Kit:
I've been using this product for years on my upper lip and eyebrows, and I always come back to it. I've never found a wax that gets all the hair like this one does, and I've tried most of the drugstore and salon at-home waxing products.
I don't love to use stripless wax for bikini, etc., but it does get the hair off. I prefer Parissa's warm wax for non-face areas, though.

Comments about Parissa Hot Wax Kit:
I usually dont write reviews but i had to. This is the best wax strip free product EVER. I tested a very very very small area and it pulled the small hairs out completely. This actually got my chin hairs that are really hard and coarse to wax but this took it smooth off! Will buy again!

Comments about Parissa Hot Wax Kit:
I liked the product I tried it on my eyebrows it was an little frustrating because the wax would have strings of wax and got on my eyelashes. But the underarm worked perfectly. The wax does dry quickly but it does a fine job.

Comments about Parissa Hot Wax Kit:
Before I used this product, I used the Parissa microwavable warm wax. That wax was incredibily sticky, messy, and hard to get off the skin. However, it got all the hair.
This was my first time using this wax, and I like it. It is very easy to clean up! The wax hardens so you can clean up any mess that you may make. It took me a few passes to get the hang of using it, and it got easier each time. It didn't get all of the hair, but most of it. I expect the next time I use to be better because I am more familiar with it now.

Comments about Parissa Hot Wax Kit:
I like that it is a warm wax that cools completely and comes off easily, however in my opinion it hurt and left my upper lip very red. I would use again in an emergency but will be visiting the salon when possible to avoid the pain and mess.
