Waxing the head or using epilators on the scalp is not easy, especially if you have a lot of hair. In fact, it can tear the skin pretty badly if you aren’t careful. It’s also very difficult to do your own head, especially the back, since it’s hard to see what you are doing. If you decide to try this, you should get it waxed by a pro the first time, then try touch-ups at home. Be sure to go to someone who has waxed head hair before.
