Why would you need a warmer in order to give a manicure?
Well, that's a very good question. The warmer isn't for the manicure, and it isn't used in an everyday to day basic manicure. A manicure warmer is for the giving of that very special manicure. This special type of manicure is a spa manicure. A spa manicure, is a little more expensive than its basic counterpart, but is very much worth the splurge to treat yourself every now and again.
The manicure warmer is actually used to warm wax which is used to give a spa manicure. The paraffin wax is heated and melted by the warmer. The wax is then smothered onto the hands of this lucky client. This wax will also acts as a moisturizer. It will moisture and replace essential oils that we loose through every day life, especially through hand washing. The wax will help to temporarily reduce fine lines leaving hands looking younger and softer and rough hands will appear smoother. If you continue to do this regularly your hands will continue to look younger, due to the softening of the skin.
Once the wax has melted and been applied the client she/he is left to relax and wait for the wax to set. The wax doesn't harden into a complete solid form. It's not like the wax of a candle or crayon, and it's also a very thin layer, and is easily removed by a gentle rubbing motion. Once the wax has been heated and applied the manicure warmer is no longer needed. There are many different types of manicure warmers.
Some of these warmers have disposable cups that allow for easy cleaning, while others have to be cleaned daily and emptied. And if you have ever tried to clean up melted wax, you know that this is not a very pleasant task to do.
Manicure warmers can also be used for other purposes in our beauty shops. For example, a lot of our salons might use their warmer to warm the wax that is used for waxing procedures, like bikini, leg, eyebrow, upper lip, arms or even the back. These waxes are stickier and heated to a higher temperature than the wax used for a spa manicure or pedicure.
These manicure warmers can also be used to give spa pedicures, a spa pedicure, dry, rough or cracked feet can really benefit from this treatment. I have treated myself to a spa pedicure on a number of occasions, and believe me it was heaven sent, the feeling was amazing, my feet were relaxed, soft and moisturised, so this is one treatment that everyone should treat themselves to now and again.
So without the invention of manicure warmers, we wouldn't have the greatest hand pampering known as the spa manicure.
