Pour the desired amount of wax into a wakse Melting Pot (do not use a retail jar) and heat in 60 second intervals until fully melted and has the consistency of honey. A full cup of wax typically takes 3 - 5 minutes to fully melt. Before you begin, use the spatula to test the wax temperature on the inside of your wrist. Product can also be used in a wax burner (follow instructions included with wax burner) Or simply get our wakse reusable pot.To remove any leftover wax from your pot, wait until it has fully cooled and fold the pot inside out to remove the wax (it can also be left in for the next use).
