A magnetic shaving system includes a pre-trimming solution containing particles having magnetic properties and a shaving apparatus having a magnet. The shaving apparatus may include only a magnet or may include a magnet in proximity of a typical razor blade. The pre-trimming solution is applied to the desired area and the magnetic shaving apparatus is applied over the solution. The magnetic solution surround the hairs and causes the hairs to be drawn toward the magnetic shaving apparatus and away from the skin, yielding a more comfortable and effective shave.

A hot wax dispensing device designed to minimize the risk of cross contamination caused by "double dipping" into a community hot wax pot. This device receives bulk wax, melts the wax, allows the melted hot wax to collect in a bowl that is not directly accessible by a user. Hot wax is then dispensed in single client portions in a disposable insert for use in depilatory waxing.
