    Hi I'm not sure but warm wax is so soothing
    It might give measurements on amazon wonder if its the same as a foot spa size?

    Ive got one and use it for my feet too. Really warming and leaves skin so soft however WARNING make sure it is not too hot. You only dip in and out a few times and then keep wax on for as long as you want. Great fun peeling off the wax too.

    Mines is Homedics and I have size 8 feet and fit in. However what you can do is paint the wax on with a pastry brush too.

    I use a slow cooker and paint the wax on with a paint brush. Please check the temperature before you actually put it on your hands or feet. I then wrap my hands or feet in plastic bags and towels on top to keep them warm. It is fun peeling it off again.
