In what direction should hair be removed during waxing?

Hair should be removed against the direction of hair growth during waxing for several reasons. This method allows for a more effective and thorough removal of hair from the follicle. By pulling the wax strip in the opposite direction of how the hair grows, you are able to minimize the risk of breaking the hair at the surface, which can lead to ingrown hairs and a less smooth finish. This technique also helps to ensure that the entire hair is extracted from the follicle, leading to longer-lasting results.

Using this method is crucial in achieving the desired smoothness and can improve the overall experience for clients, making it a standard practice in the waxing industry.
