Guest guest Posted January 16, 2001 Report Share Posted January 16, 2001 Hi Rainy, I'm feeling under the weather so haven't replied to your earlier posts, I'll try to tomorrow. BTW, no offence taken about the weight thing Anyway, there are different grades of wax on the market. I have a Therabath machine and the wax is like velvet. It comes off so easily. My brother in law tried it and his arms are really hairy. It was funny cuz' the hairs started poking right thru the wax. It was weird, it also came off his arm/hands with no problem. I used the therabath on my hands three times today. Am chilled today and even had to get into the hot tub twice, must being getting the bug that's going around. couldn't seemed to get warm. Ok, I'm off to bed with a wool blankie Barb in CA -----Original Message----- From: Rysu19@... <Rysu19@...> egroups < egroups> Date: Tuesday, January 16, 2001 6:28 PM Subject: Re: [ ] Parrifin Wax >I ask bcs when I have done the paraffin wax it feels greasy to where it comes >off easily.

Guest guest Posted January 16, 2001 Report Share Posted January 16, 2001 Rainey Sue, Don't mean to butt into your conversation....but I'm gonna anyway. You can buy paraffin wax at the grocery store (in the canning section). It is used for canning, so I was told. Also, they sell it at beauty supply discount stores, in my area one store that sells it is called Sally's. Feels wonderful. Tery - FL P. S. Just make sure that it doesn't get above 120 degrees if you use a crock pot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 16, 2001 Report Share Posted January 16, 2001 Rainy Sue, My boyfriends mom has seen it as Sally's here in Mobile too. I also saw the Parrifin Wax machine at sam's. If i remember correctly it was a reasonable price too. I will check the next time i go cause i was thinking of getting one for jesse since his fingers and wrist are so affected by the JRA and his left foot. shelly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 16, 2001 Report Share Posted January 16, 2001 Thanks Tery. I was wondering about the stuff at the grocery store. I used to make candles and that is what I used. I sure wish I had a crock pot now! I'd take some candles from around the house and throw them in! LOL. How do you check the heat on your crock pot? ~Rainy Sue PS. You didn't butt in! =) > Rainey Sue, > Don't mean to butt into your conversation....but I'm gonna anyway. You can > buy paraffin wax at the grocery store (in the canning section).

Guest guest Posted January 16, 2001 Report Share Posted January 16, 2001 I'm sorry , do you mean *at* Sally's? I have a Sally Beauty Supply just around the corner. If that is what you mean, I will check. I need to go there, anyhow, they have some lotion I really like. ~Rainy Sue > Rainy Sue, > > My boyfriends mom has seen it as Sally's here in Mobile too.

Guest guest Posted January 16, 2001 Report Share Posted January 16, 2001 I ask bcs when I have done the paraffin wax it feels greasy to where it comes off easily. So I was wondering if I melted candle wax that it would come off as easily. ~Rainy Sue > Rainy Sue, > The package that came with mine just said paraffin wax.

Guest guest Posted January 16, 2001 Report Share Posted January 16, 2001 Rainy Sue, The package that came with mine just said paraffin wax. There is nothing special about it. a > Oh, well that isn't very much. The crock pot idea is cool too.

Guest guest Posted January 16, 2001 Report Share Posted January 16, 2001 yes i mean Sally's Beauty Supply. Don't mind me i think iam losing a few marbles today. now that i have the kids feeling better jason is now sick and he is such a big baby. He called me at least 30 times today while he was working and he called his mom just as many times. Good thing local calls are free on our cell phones.
