What Happened?
Why has & still is Mermaid Wax running low on Bulk Signature Series? First, we ARE NOT out of Signature Series Bulk 44lbs & Up! We should always have 1 or 2 colors of Signature Series available in all sizes & will always have some color/size of Signature Series in stock.
To clarify we have only 2 Types of Hard Wax, which are VERY DIFFERENT -however both come in MULTIPLE COLORS! Signature Series (Super Elastic & Hypoallergenic) which is Next Generation Technology. Signature Series is the ONLY wax our founder and subject matter expert & online master trainer Kristen Spelce of HK Wax Center aka The Hiss’n Kitten Waxing Center uses when using hard wax. Signature Series is currently offered in 4 colors; Clear, Aqua, Fuchsia, & Black w/Fire Mica.
Mermaid Wax Pro Series is akin to a classic hard wax film made for “strip & rip” -immediate removal waxing techniques. In our eyes indescernible from other major brands pink & blue film wax lines. Pro Series is currently offered in 3 colors; Deep Purple, Deep Blue Pearl, & Emerald Green. This wax older technology and contains a known allergen; Colophium. It works great, but does require the experience & knowledge of a Master Waxing Esthetician as it is not as forgiving as Signature Series. Pro Series can break or crack, Signature Series will not.
Due to both Covid & US Southern States Snowpocalypse 2021 the Raw Materials used in Signature Series became unavailable. The specific grade of RM we use in Signature Series is not widely available as we keep our specs for ingredients at the highest level possible. Thus our shortage. Because we’re still not a major player in the Raw Materials market for our ingredients, we have the potential to get squeezed out of supplies to other mega corporations. As we grow so will our orders size and give us more leverage for future potential supply instabilities. Basically, we learned that it’s easy to be small or big, but hard to be stuck in the middle.
We foresee the end of this shortage by this Fall. Once that happens you’ll see the return of all colors & sizes of Signature Series, Samplers, & PRO-30OFF and other discounts for new Mermaids.
In closing we must once again give thanks to you, Our Mermaids. You’ve made Mermaid Wax what it is; The MOST LOVED & Fastest Growing Wax Company in the history of waxing. We now rely on your ideas, your requests, your expertise to guide us into the future. It is YOUR input that has led to the development and release of more products than I (Kristen) ever planned or imagined. I can’t wait to see what YOU come up with next because your input is invaluable! Thank you all from the bottom of my heart. -<3K
