On One Hand: Parchment Paper May Be More Readily AvailableParchment paper has several household uses, namely in baking, and you may be interested in using available parchment in a pinch, especially since it is thin and easy to tear.On the Other: Parchment Paper Wasn’t Made for WaxingThough some waxing strips use a thick paper called pelin, it is created for such uses. Parchment paper is silicone-coated, which makes it non-stick and unable to grip the wax that needs to be removed, and since it tears easily, it’s not suited for this job.Bottom LineThough it might be tempting to use parchment paper during your hair removal wax, it will not attach to the wax in the amount of time needed for a clean hair removal.
