What is the best way to melt the wax?

I do it in an old cup in the microwave and keep a supply of wooden spatulas to apply it - one minute to start with on High and then perhaps another 30 seconds if it is not quite ready to apply - and take care, because it is quite hot so do a test on your hand. Don't heat too much at one time - a tablespoon of beads goes a long way. A proper wax melting pot is best if you can run to that but I find it convenient to do it this way.

The thing to do is get a can of it also. It goes in a wax warmer, make sure it has a thermostat. This bag is for adding to the wax as you use it.

I melt it with my wax warmer in a 4 oz tin container on 50 to 60 degrees Celsius.

I put it in a throw away tin and heat it. You can use a microwave just make sure you check the temperature of the wax before you slap it on your skin so you don't get burned

In a wax pot.. I suppose you could use a double boiler but the pan you use would be earmarked for wax only. As a cosmetologist I have used Cirepil Blue for a long time.. It can be messy but I like not having to use strips .

get yourself a $25 wax heater on Amazon. It will be easier to keep the mess and hassle all contained instead of attempting other microwave options suggested. With a heater the temp will be more consistent too.Gigi Wax Warmer (Model: 0225)

I purchased the heating unit which you just plug in and wait for it to melt. I don't have any other suggestions- I invested in the unit because I was scared of overheating the wax and burning myself. Good luck!

I reread the instructions 2-3 times, it says remove plastic rack before heating wax. then when wax is melted, prior to putting in your hand, you put in the plastic rack so you don't burn your hand with the burner that heats the rack.

I took some out and microwaved it in a plastic cup........I finally gave in and purchased the No! No! from Radiancy, which works much better than the wax.

Probably a bar recipe. My recipe has Shea butter, unfractionated coconut oil and bees wax which are solids at room temp. Thus these are liquid when melted, pour into containers and then solidify at room temp.

Hello can you recommend what type of wax warmer to use for this type of wax?

I used a small, cheap wax heater, but without such a device you could put it on the stove in a pan with some water in it and slowly melt it that way. A small wax heater ($25) is probably worth the money because the wax needs to be reheated continually.

I used it in a wax melt warmer, but dont add water to make it last longer. it starts to snap, crackle and pop

the wax comes in a can and you just take the lid off of the wax can and drop the can in the melting pot. I bought this for my daughter and she loves it! she youtubes everything to learn.

This is not a microwave formula. You will need a professional wax warmer. You can use a strip and place the edge of it underneath the wax you have just applied to use as a pulling tab of sorts, but no, do not use strips on top of the wax.

I use it for Gigi Honey Wax and it does takes a good 1/2 hour + to start melting.

I don't know what the melt method is. Sorry I can't be of more help to you. Good luck.

Its in a plastic container that may not hold up in the oven. But maybe in a pot on the stove? It takes a while for the wax to melt in my low watt microwave but it is probably possible on the stove. It would be a pain though.

i don't think so...my best way to remove wax i with a clean rag and an iron. keep moving the rag to a clean area as the wax melts onto it. you'll have to dump the rag and sometimes scrub the iron surface for residue.

Yes, what I do is use a hair dryer to melt the wax into the fabric. Rub the wax on evenly, and blow dry until it is absorbed. It might come off on things for a week or so, but it will break in.

I would not recommend that you pour wax directly into this warmer. I would suggest you purchase a can of wax that normally is used with this warmer and when that can is empty you could refill the can. Hope that helps.
