Why do they put hot wax on your feet after a pedicure?

I've never had a pedicure in a salon until today and I noticed that all the women got their feet dipped in hot wax. I declined this offer because it didn't seem sanitary. Ordinarily I would never go to a salon for a pedicure but the place I went to kept their instrument sanitary although I doubt they replace the wax very often. They certainly don't change it after every foot dip. Plus I heard about a woman who got herpes from having her lip waxed after a woman who had a herpes bump got her wax.
