You need to really rip it off, right?
I'm gonna start off with the mustache.

Ohh!
As you may have seen before on "One Star Reviews,"
I usually visit businesses that have rated quite low online,
and I put their reviews to the test in real life.
However, reviews go just beyond businesses.
They go all the way to products.
People have a lot to say about products.
So, I'm gonna head onto the Internet,
order some of these products,
and put it to the test for myself.
I'm gonna order a DIY waxing kit.

Alright. So, a lot of these at-home waxing products
are quite highly rated.
Oh, wait. We're getting a little lower now.
Blue Steel Sports.
-I read the instructions,
but the wax just stuck to my back
and didn't pull any hair off.
I ended up shaving it. -This is for a woman
or men with women hair.
-I expected wax strips.
What I got was a bunch of sticky, messy,
glue-like stuff sandwiched... -Product made in South Africa.
-...between thin pieces of... -No wonder it doesn't work.
-...plastic film. -Well, there's a lot
of negative reviews on this one.
That's for damn sure.
But I'm gonna order it for myself
and hope for the best.

Blue Steel Sports Hair Removal Wax Strips.
A safe and easy way to remove unwanted hair,
leaving skin smooth and hair-free for weeks.
Legs, bikini, chest, and back.
I guess it doesn't mention face.
I wanted to test this product to the very limit.
Judging by how much hair I had on my face
from not shaving for so long,
that was clearly the best option.
Alright. Let's see what we have in the box.
This one actually seems to come with a lot of instructions,
which is quite nice.
"Warm double strip.
Slowly separate the double strip.
Apply the sticky side of the wax strip to the skin.
Rub it vigorously between your hands.
Press wax strip on area to be waxed."

Did it get any of my hair off?

It got, like, what, like four hairs?

-Two... -Ohh!
My God, that hurt!
Ohh!
My God!
Aah!
Is it even gettting any of my hair off?
Ugh!
Well, the wax kit definitely did not seem
to work on my face.
But everyone in life deserves a second chance,
so I decided to call Blue Steel directly
and see if they could help me wax my chest this time.

Hello, is this Blue Steel Sports?
I just ordered your product.
It's your company?

Okay.
I actually tried a little bit on my face before,
but it didn't really quite work.
But maybe the face is not a good idea.
Would this potentially work on the chest
or, like, kind of around the nipple area?
Exactly?
So far, Blue Steel's customer service was on point.
I wanted to give her product a true and fair test,
and she was kind enough to donate her time
to talk to me through waxing my chest,
step by step.
I noticed when I peeled one of them off,
it didn't quite come off smoothly.
Got it.

[ Squeaking continues ]
Yeah.
I'm not super hairy.
I think this should be good.
Okay, thanks.
I'm gonna give that a go.
Holy cow!
It worked!
Whoa!
Which, yeah, kind of initially happened with me,
but now that I spoke with you and kind of took the time
to read through the directions,
I've noticed, actually, I'm missing a full patch of hair
on my chest now.
The center of my chest was as smooth as a seal.
Thank you, Blue Steel.
While I had the owner on the line,
I had to get to the bottom of the negative reviews.
Have you seen any of the reviews where some people were saying,
you know, about the sticky residue?
Is there any sort of message you might want to give someone,
you know, before they go and write a negative review?

I ordered this product in hopes of waxing
my face and nipple areas
but ended up with a perfectly waxed chest
because, in actuality,
it's not meant for the face.
In today's age, so many people are quick
to negatively review a product
based on their personal negligence,
not the actual product's function.
This product, in fact,
works fantastically when done right.
If we can all just step back for a moment and have a breather
and read the instructions through,
you will be happier with all of life's results.
Otherwise, you're just gonna end up
covered in goop and whatever hairy body you began with.
So, thank you, Blue Steel.
Maybe I'll hit the beach in like three to nine months.
Okay.
