Advantages: good price, single use, easy to cut to size

Disadvantages: Hurts!

These are the best home waxing strips that I have tried.
They are nearly as effective as a salon wax, and the results last for 3 or 4 weeks.
The big advantage over other makes is that they are single use.
Most makes now produce waxing strips which are intended to be reused. In order to get your monies worth compared to these strips you need to reuse each strip several times, which I find impossible.
These strips are very simple to use. You just cut them to the desired size, apply to the area, and then whip off quickly!
It is painful, there is no getting over that! Try holding your hand on the area immediately afterwards, (they do it in salons), and it does help a little.
It helps if you leave the strips in the fridge to make sure they are cold - hot and sticky strips are harder to rip off and so hurt more!
Also make sure that you keep the strip as close to the skin as possible when you rip it off, if you just pull up, you get the pain, but without the gain!- it doesnt remove the hair!
You get 36 strips in a pack, so they do last quite well, and because they are easy to cut to size, there is no wastage.
