Soft wax, applied thinly across the skin and removed with paper or cloth strips, is suitable for larger areas like arms and legs. It adheres to both the hair and skin, providing an exfoliating effect. While soft wax is efficient for removing fine hair over large areas, it can be more painful and may cause more irritation than hard wax, making it less ideal for extremely sensitive skin. Aftercare includes applying a soothing lotion to reduce redness and prevent bumps.
