As a child I had many ear infections and wax build-up. My Italian grandmother would ALWAYS fix the problem with ear candling. She made her own candles. I am now 69 years old and have continued to use ear candles my whole life. They are safe, they are painless and I cannot imagine not doing it. During allergy season one ear in particular becomes clogged to the point of losing my hearing. Ear candles always clean that up. When you do it, always have a "spotter" help you. Take an aluminum foil pie plate, cut a hole in the bottom big enough to fit the candle through and cover your hair/head with a towel. Place the larger end of the candle at the opening of your ear but do NOT try to force it into the ear canal. Have your "spotter" light the top end of the candle and wait for it. If you hear sizzling, you KNOW it is drawing out the wax. Remove the candle when it is down far enough to feel the heat on the hand of the "spotter." Then, after you dunk the lit end in a bowl of water, cut the candle open lengthwise and just see the debris and wax that has been removed. It is amazing and after 69 years I swear by its success.
