How It Works: Whether you're having it done at your favorite salon or doing it at home, the process for waxing looks similar. It can either be done with warm wax that is applied to an area of skin then removed when it hardens, or using a thinner layer of wax applied to an area that is removed via a thin cloth (typically mueslin).
How Much It Hurts: "It hurts more depending on the quality and experience of your waxer and definitely feels raw for a day or two after," former beauty editor Sarah Siegel previously said. "Each time I'd get waxed, I'd think I was in the room for close to an hour just to find out it's been about 15 minutes tops."
