Wax play?

[NikiCole]

I was wondering if anyone has, thoughts, ideas, true stories about wax play? I've played with wax just by myself (btw I used the wrong type of candle). And it was just on my arm. But... it keeps running through my twisted little mind that I want to try this. Any how-to's would be helpful.

Oh thank you!! I thought I check there but I guess I was wrong.

No reason to let it stop the thread or anything; maybe one of the old threads will lead to more discussion.

Things I have learned from playing with wax

Use an old sheet, a thick one that you don't mind getting messed up as a drop sheet.

Shave and moisturise well the area you to want to put wax on first. Picking wax out of hair is a real buzzkill. And moisturiser will help peel it off more easily too.

Hotter burning candles can be used as long as you remember to pour them from higher.

Don't attempt to pour wax into an orrifice...EVER

Make sure the room is slightly warmer than normal. Warm skin is better unless you're going for the direct contrast between hot and cold.

I like wax on my tits but much prefer it down my back, on my pussy or my ass cheeks. Inner forearms makes for an interesting sensation too.

You can use coloured wax and stencils to get some really beautiful patterns on someone's body.

You can use wax as a restraint. Tell your sub if they crack the wax through squirming or whatever there will be consequences.

Mostly though, I just really like wax. It's a shame it's something I never get to play with much. Wax and rope and clothes pegs and I'm a happy camper.

Why - out of interest - shouldn't one pour wax into an orifice? I've seen wax play *ON* the labia, and I can imagine it would be an absolute bitch to remove afterwards... but I just can't picture what would result if wax got *IN*.

Internal tissues are MUCH more sensitive and damage-able (yeah, I don't think that's a word, either, but you get the point) than external tissue or even the outer portions of the orifices.

Stencils.... hmmm Thank you for the idea. What type of moisturizer would be preferred? An oil or cream?


Has anyone used just melted wax? Like in a crock or paraffin warmer?

I saw an image on Google, that had them pouring it into orifices. It hurt, and not in a good way just to look at it. I would be worried about the wax breaking inside and getting stuck somewhere.

The thought of having blisters/burns on some of those delicate internal places.... [shiver]

Me and my wife used it once, and she really liked it. Like you already learned, not just any candle will do. We used the right kind and she found it quite arousing on her sensitive nipples.

Head on out to walmart or Meijer's and head to the medical section. Look there for a paraffin wax bath. Perfect for wax play and its about 4 pounds of wax. I use a paint brush and plastic cup to transfer it over my sub before brushing on the first layer slowly. Once there is a base you can pour it on like a candle. Again, vary the height from the skin to change the intensity. Wax play is different for each person as everyone's pain tolerance is different.

As much as I despise Walmart, I might have to go just for that. As long as I don't get kicked out again.

If you toss a couple crayola crayons into your melting paraffin, you can have pretty colors and an aroma reminiscent of childhood.

I've recommended this route toward wax play a number of times over the years. I don't often recommend specific brands; however, in this instance, I *do* recommend seeking out the HoMedics brand of paraffin (hot wax) "baths," particularly those with variable temperature setting. You may have to do a little searching and/or researching on that item, though, because a *quick* Google search didn't seem to turn one up. They may have discontinued the variable temp models in the years since I last bought mine. A second quick Google search turns up a couple of variable temp paraffin baths - ThermalSpa, Therabath and Dr. Scholl's - but I have no personal experience with any of these, so can't (won't!) recommend any by name.

(My HoMedics paraffin bath looks pretty much like this

Thanks for that, Niki! That comment instantly brought back a recent Fark story of a woman in Florida (where else?) who called 9-1-1 for help in getting away from a guy who was harassing her at WalMart. He was a store loss prevention officer, trying to keep her from leaving the store with over $140 worth of products she hadn't paid for.

ETA: Oh... I don't do paraffin baths for anything "kinky" at this point, lol. I use it to ease the soreness and stiffness of arthritis in my hands. I did use it for wax play with wife #3, though.

I got thrown out for a whole other reason. A good one but not a story for now.

Can anyone tell me about the care after wax play?

It takes ages to scrape it off the carpet.....

It takes ages to scrape it off the carpet.....

And it breaks into small pieces that are a horror to get rid of.
Do listen to knot-sweet about that big old sheet.

I know, different type of wax, but still thought this was hilarious. Enjoy!

Someone posted this on Facebook, not sure of the author.

All hair removal methods have tricked women with their promises of easy, painless removal – The epilady, scissors, razors, Nair and now…the wax. My night began as any other normal weeknight. Come home, fix dinner, play with the kids. I then had the thought that would ring painfully in my mind for the next few hours: “Maybe I should pull the waxing kit out of the medicine cabinet.” So I headed to the site of my demise: the bathroom. It was one of those “cold wax” kits. No melting a clump of hot wax, you just rub the strips together in your hand, they get warm and you peel them apart and press them to your leg (or wherever else) and you pull the hair right off. No muss, no fuss. How hard can it be? I mean, I’m not a genius, but I am mechanically inclined enough to figure this out. (YA THINK!?!) So I pull one of the thin strips out. Its two strips facing each other stuck together. Instead of rubbing them together, my genius kicks in so I get out the hair dryer and heat it to 1000 degrees. (“Cold wax,” yeah…right!) I lay the strip across my thigh. Hold the skin around it tight and pull. It works! OK, so it wasn't the best feeling, but it wasn't too bad. I can do this! Hair removal no longer eludes me! I am She-rah, fighter of all wayward body hair and maker of smooth skin extraordinaire.
With my next wax strip I move north. After checking on the kids, I sneak back into the bathroom, for the ultimate hair fighting championship. I drop my panties and place one foot on the toilet. Using the same procedure, I apply the one strip across the right side of my bikini line, covering the right half of my *hoo-hoo* and stretching down to the inside of my butt cheek (Yes, it was a long strip) I inhale deeply and brace myself….RRRRIIIPPP!!!! I’m blind!!! Blinded from pain!!!!….OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!! Vision returning, I notice that I’ve only managed to pull off half the strip. CRAP!!! Another deep breath and RRIIPP!! Everything is swirly and spotted. I think I may pass out…must stay conscious… Do I hear crashing drums???
Breathe, breathe…OK, back to normal. I want to see my trophy – a wax covered strip, the one that has caused me so much pain, with my hairy pelt sticking to it. I want to revel in the glory that is my triumph over body hair. I hold up the strip! There’s no hair on it. Where is the hair??? WHERE IS THE WAX???
Slowly I ease my head down, foot still perched on the toilet. I see the hair. The hair that should be on the strip. I touch. I am touching wax. CRAP! I run my fingers over the most sensitive part of my body, which is now covered in cold wax and matted hair. Then I make the next BIG mistake…remember my foot is still propped up on the toilet? I know I need to do something. So I put my foot down. DANG!!!!!!!! I hear the slamming of a cell door. *hoo-hoo*?
Sealed shut! Butt?? Sealed shut! I penguin walk around the bathroom trying to figure out what to do and think to myself, “Please don’t let me get the urge to poop. My head may pop off!” What can I do to melt the wax? Hot water!! Hot water melts wax!!! I’ll run the hottest water I can stand into the bathtub, get in, immerse the wax-covered bits and the wax should melt and I can gently wipe it off, right??? WRONG!!!!!!! I get in the tub – the water is slightly hotter than that used to torture prisoners of war or sterilize surgical equipment – I sit. Now, the only thing worse than having your nether regions glued together is having them glued together and then glued to the bottom of the tub…in scalding hot water. Which, by the way, doesn't melt cold wax. So, now I’m stuck to the bottom of the tub as though I had cement-epoxied my self to the porcelain!! God bless the man who had convinced me a few months ago to have a phone put in the bathroom!!!!! I call my friend, thinking surely she has waxed before and has some secret of how to get me undone. It’s a very good conversation starter – “So, my butt and ‘who-ha’ are glued together to the bottom of the tub!” There is a slight pause. She doesn't know any secret tricks for removal but she does try to hide her laughter from me. She wants to know exactly where the wax is located, “Are we talking cheeks or who-ha?” She’s laughing out loud by now…I can hear her. I give her the rundown and she suggests I call the number on the side of the box. YEAH!!!!! Right!! I should be the joke of someone else’s night. While we go through various solutions, I resort to scraping the wax off with a razor. Nothing feels better then to have your girlie goodies covered in hot wax, glued shut, stuck to the tub in super hot water and then dry-shaving the sticky wax off!! By now the brain is not working, dignity has taken a major hike and I’m pretty sure I’m going to need Post-Traumatic Stress counseling for this event. My friend is still talking with me when I finally see my saving grace….the lotion they give you to remove the excess wax. What do I really have to lose at this point? I rub some on and OH MY GOD!!!!!!! The scream probably woke the kids and scared the dickens out of my friend. It’s sooo painful, but I really don’t care. “IT WORKS!! It works!!” I get a hearty congratulation from my friend and she hangs up.
I successfully remove the remainder of the wax and then notice to my grief and despair……… THE HAIR IS STILL THERE……… ALL OF IT!!!!!!!!!! So I recklessly shave it off. Heck, I’m numb by now. Nothing hurts. I could have amputated my own leg at this point.

Next week I’m going to try hair color…..
