hard wax

Stripless hair removal

Hard wax is a type of wax used for hair removal that hardens on the skin and is pulled off without cloth strips: Hard wax is gentler on sensitive areas.

Unlike soft wax, it adheres to hair rather than skin, making it less painful.

The term also refers to a firm wax used in wood finishing or floor polishing.
