KOTAMU Wax Kit Pink Digital Hair Removal Waxing Kit for Women & Men Hot Wax Warmer Pot for Face, Eyebrow, Body, Brazilian, Bikini, Sensitive Skin Waxing Machine with 25 Accessories for Home Salon

I’d like to state that I am a novice at waxing. I have a terrible reaction to shaving. No matter the blade, technique, or aftercare product, I seem to always end up with terrible razor bumps that hurt badly. With summer coming up, I decided I’ve had enough and want to feel confident showing my legs again. I did quite a bit of research regarding different products and how to wax properly. I watched lots of videos as well- some helpful and some scary. But I quickly learned the scary ones were truly human error or a lack of practice. I’m hoping that sharing my experience can help another beginner like me!Since I wasn’t sure how my skin would react to waxing, I didn’t want to spend a fortune. But I also wanted to do it right. This was a wonderful deal. The warmer is super cute (I got the pink one), and it’s small enough to fit on my bathroom shelf. It’s also not an eye sore and I don’t feel the need to hide it somewhere. Shipping was fast and everything was exactly as described.The manual was very helpful, although I do think it would have touched more on how to operate the actual warmer. However, it ended up not being an issue because it’s easy-peasy. After plugging in and pouring your wax beads, you simply turn the dial to the temp you’d like. 155-160 was perfect for me. The manual does address this, but you must remember that the warmer is going to reach its max temp in order to fully melt the wax (240 something- extremely hot!) The digital reader will rise and then fall back down to your set temp. There’s also a red/green light to let you know when it’s ready (it took about a total of 10-15 minutes.) Test a small amount on your inner wrist before diving into it. This will give you an idea of how it will feel and if the consistency is correct. I feel that it needs to be a bit thicker than honey… more like condensed milk.There is definitely a learning curve to this whole process. Holding horizontally and twisting the stick is your best friend. This helps to create a bulb at the end of the stick. I recommend also using an up and down motion as you twist, similar to a handshake, to separate any strings hanging onto the bulb. If there is any dripping, the wax is way too hot, but this should not happen if you keep it between 155-160. I started on my leg and the technique wasn’t hard to learn, but I was getting sad when I wasn’t picking up much hair. I took a break from that and tried my armpit. This is where I learned a lot. Because my armpits are more sensitive than my legs, and I was anxious about the pain, I peeled the wax much sooner than I was before. It ripped out every hair. And I mean ALL of it. And the pain was so minimal, it took me all of 2 minutes to finish both armpits. The directions say to peel after 30-45 seconds, but this was too long and was making the wax un-stick to my hair. I found more success in waiting about 10 seconds, and so the rest of the waxing was smooth sailing.I’m sure it can be different for people with other hair types and directions of growth, but I think patience and practice is key. I let my coarser hairs grow a bit longer than a grain of rice (which was an annoying 3 weeks, but it’s worth it!) My hairs grow at different speeds and thickness, so I can feel some of the small, finer hairs still. But I know waxing has to be done multiple times before it’s uniform and/or stops growing. You can always tweeze anything noticeable leftover. Overall, I am so satisfied and impressed with this purchase and couldn’t recommend it enough, especially for someone wanting to learn how. It's been 24 hours and normally I’d be covered in painful bumps, but my skin is silky smooth and clear! I love that they also sell Kotamu wax beads separately so that you can keep using the brand if you adore it like I did!

I didn’t like shaving so I wanted to try waxing at home and I am so glad I bought this. Wax is included in the kit and the melter melts the wax in under 7 minutes. You can adjust the temperature which is nice and there is a silicone insert so you don’t have to wash the metal and can reuse the melted wax.

I recently tried this hair removal waxing kit, and I am really impressed! The kit comes with everything you need, including wax beans, small and big applicator, silicon cup, lid and an easy-to-use electric heater. The wax heats up quickly and maintains a consistent temperature, making the whole process smooth and efficient. However i tried this bean wax for the first time and it was little difficult for me. However if you know how to use than would be easier for you. The only downside is that it can get a little messy, so I recommend having towels or wipes handy. Overall, it's a fantastic at-home solution for waxing, and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a convenient and effective hair removal option!

This is the perfect at home wax kit. Waxed my husbands back and my armpits. Wax wasn’t too hot and instructions were easy to follow. Can’t wait to try the bikini line for summer!

Great product. Used to pay a wax studio for my wax, now I save a money doing it myself. It takes some practice but overall pleased with the kit. It took me about three times to get the hang of it.

I purchased this yesterday and used it same day. So far the wax warmer is great, it heats up pretty nicely. This was my first time using at home wax products so I was scared but I got the hang of it and now I’m happy with my purchase. The only downside is that the wax is very stringy, like string cheese almost. It got messy real quick and it started almost being an inconvenience. My work station got dirty really fast with all the pieces of stringed wax. I dont know if maybe I got a bad batch of wax but this wax brand is not good at all!!! If anything, I’d just purchase a different brand waxing kit because what I also noticed is that my wax melting pot didn’t include a thin metal bar like how I seen in their advertising and on other people’s pictures.

Heats up very well. Love the different variety of wax beads to test out. This is my second wax machine and i love the silicone bowl to change out the wax. Will update if any issues.

I have been paying for waxings for a long time and decided to give it a shot at home. This wax warmer was great! The various waxes made it easy to determine which ones to use for which areas. The wax was melted to just the right temperature. Waxing is never "comfortable" but I found minimal discomfort pulling the wax off. I used it for underarms, bikini line and inner thighs. Super easy clean up! I wish I would have bought this sooner. This is going to be so helpful over the summer for quick waxing before the beach or pool.
