What will happen if wax is not applied at a 45-degree angle?

Applying wax at a 45-degree angle is critical for ensuring its effectiveness in hair removal. When the wax is applied too thickly, as might happen when not following the proper angle, it can prevent the adhesive properties of the wax from effectively gripping the hair. This means that when a strip is pulled away, it may not effectively remove the hair, resulting in an incomplete treatment. A correct angle allows for a smoother, more even application that promotes better adherence to the hair, enhancing the chances of complete hair removal during the waxing process. Proper angle application also aids in minimizing the effort required to remove the wax strip and improves overall client comfort during the procedure.
