KOTAMU Waxing Kit for Women & Men, Digital Wax Warmer for Hair Removal

This wax kit is very easy to use and works really well. The warmer heats up quickly and keeps the wax at a consistent temperature, which makes the whole process much easier. The wax beads remove hair cleanly and are gentle on the skin, even for sensitive areas. I’ve used it for face and body, and the results are smooth with minimal irritation. It also comes with a good amount of accessories, so you can start using it right away. Overall, this is a great value for both beginners and professionals. Definitely worth it!

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 could 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 am tired of having to go somewhere whenever I need my face waxed! This was a good price and because I understand how to use wax, I am able to handle it without a huge mess. It heats up nice, I like the temperature adjustment and the wax peels off very well. The only reason I’m not giving a 5 star is it doesn’t get all my hairs, but neither did the place I would get my wax.

This wax pot has saved me SO much money. It's gotten too expensive for waxing services at salons, so I figured I'd do it myself. I like that the kit comes with popsicle sticks of 2 sizes to start. The wax isn't the best quality, but gets the job done. The pot is really what I needed and the silicone bowl insert makes cleanup a BREEZE. I would never wax without a silicone bowl again and it's wide enough so wax won't drip all over the pot. I love that it tells you the temperature it's at when you change it to a lower/higher one, so you know if it's ready. This pot is worth the money and a great investment if you prefer to wax on a budget.

I was pleasantly surprised at how well this kit warmed up the wax beads and maintained a steady temperature; the digital warmer heats quickly and the silicone pot makes cleanup easy. The included waxes target different hair types and body areas, so I was able to get smooth results on my face, legs and bikini line. The wax clings to hairs and pulls them out from the root, and I love that it's gentle enough for sensitive skin. Having all the sticks and accessories in the box means you can start right away without buying extras. It does take a bit of practice to handle the wax without making a mess, but the results are totally worth it.

I got the kit with the pre/post sprays, silicone spatulas/pot liner with the 4 different wax beads. I'll start off with the wax warmer, silicone spatulas and liner. The warmer heated up nicely, the spatulas are easy to clean once the wax completely dries. And I'm sure the silicone liner will be a breeze to clean as well. Absolutely love the wax warmer and reusable spatulas and liner. The pre and post wax sprays are ok. They are the 1st time of me ever using such products so hard to compare how well they work. They do have a strong "salon" smell to them. However the wax is meh. It sets way too fast like speed wax and breaks off small pieces/strips and is so sticky. I'm not a pro so not a fan of the quick setting wax. I feel like the bags were too small to even wax a half leg. I ended up using 2 bags to do just to do my legs below the knee and still didn't get some of the hair due to running out. The wax had set too quickly before being able to fully spread it to last. I thought maybe I needed to have the wax a little warmer than I had it at 185, so I slowly tested different temps for best spreadable outcomes. 197-205 was the best however just a little too hot for my skin and ended up with a couple spots scalded. Other than these issues with the wax, I feel like it did ok grabbing the hairs. I feel like it did grab and pull out a good amount from the roots but also some hairs broke off and with the roots still in.

Great wax pot for first time user. Heats wax quickly. Silicone insert is fantastic to let wax cool and then remove. Is easy to reinsert and use remaining wax. Didn’t use the wax included as the reviews on it weren’t very promising. Everything was included as described. Would purchase again and have recommended to others.

Great product, arrived well packaged on time. This works as intended, already used a few times found every easy to use. It also comes with everything you would need in the box. Resin variety is a nice sampler to try. The best part is cleanup is effortless. Highly recommend! Thank you

Dear Kotamu and Amazon KSA, When you wish to sell an electric product, the voltage and adapter of said product should not be secondary in terms of priorities. I was waiting for the machine only to be faced by this: The power adapter is made for the US and same for the 120 voltage of the machine (not mentioned in the description too!) while Saudi Arabia outputs support 240 V. Diagraceful!

If you’re a beginner like me, don’t buy these beads. They take forever to dry and stick on everything, and leave such a messy residue even if the strip comes off in one piece. Even soap and water isn’t gonna get all of the tiny residue out.. But the heater is really good, love the silicone bowl as well.

i love the wax warmer in this kit and the silicone insert that it comes with, makes for easy wax removal so you don’t have to spend time cleaning it out. on the other hand, the wax beads that come with this kit didn’t do too well for me. i would recommend buying the wax melter and different brand beads for best outcome!

Works perfectly well. FYI, With one 100g packet of the wax beads I was able to wax my legs from foot to knee, underarms, upper lip and side burns. Does not bruise and effectively removes unwanted hair.

I was really pleased with how this wax warmer was working, and the wax was great too. However sadly the machine turned itself off and stopped working only 20 minutes of first use. I don’t know whether mine is faulty or what happened, but any advice would be greatly appreciated..
