Body hair is every woman’s worst
enemy. You have to removeit regularly, especially during the summer. There are
various methods of hair removal which can be expensive, tedious, and painful
and we still do it. Of course, not every woman prefers the same method, and
that’s why you should try out several different ones in order to find the one
that best suits you.
Waxing
Even though waxing is one of the
most painful hair removal options, it lasts longer since you are removing pesky
hair from the root. The process is really simple, you just apply wax to your
skin, it sticks to the hair and you quickly pull off the strip along with the
hair. This method is perfect for removing hair from larger areas, such as your
legs, but it’s used for smaller areas too. If you’re waxing for the first time,
it will definitely hurt, but as time goes by and you master this technique it
will hurt less, the hair will become scarce and you can even find the way
of making this less painful.
Laser
Laser hair removal procedure is a
method that destroys the root of the hair by using light. It promises long-term
results and it’s perfect for women with dark hair and light skin. In order to
succeed with this method, you will have to take 6 to 12 sessions of laser
hair removal. Additionally, thanks to the advanced technology, you can even
complete these sessions at home. Even though this method of hair removal is
less painful than waxing, it does hurt a bit. It’s usually compared to a rubber
band snapping against your skin, but the levelof pain really depends on your
pain threshold.
Shaving
Shaving might be one of the
painless options, but it certainly is not as efficient as the others. You are
probably familiar with shaving and you know it just cuts off the hair at skin
level. It doesn’t last very long, but it’s a quick fix if you’re in a hurry.
This method works on any skin type or area, but watch out for the ingrown hair
(especially in the pubic region). Also, you have to make sure not to cut
yourself, since the cut itself could lead to serious infections. Use proper
shaving cream or oils and use a sharp new blade. Avoid using rusty old razors.
Depilatory Creams
Using depilatory creams is
another quick solution which actually dissolves the hair. However, since the
hair is not removed from the root, it will start growing back in one to three
days. Typically, you smear a thick layer of the chosen
depilatory cream on the desired area and wait. After a few minutes, you
wipe it off. Unfortunately, this method doesn’t always work, especially if you
have strong hair. Nevertheless, using depilatory cream can weaken the hair
which makes them easier to pluck or remove with wax.
Every woman has probably tried
each one of these methods. Some work better than the others, but may hurt more.
Depending on your skin sensitivity and thickness of your hair, choose your hair
removal method wisely, since we are all bound to remove them for the rest of
our lives.
