WAXING – Hair removal
Hair removal is something we as a nation are fixated on. We are forever on a mission to find the most effective way to remove body hair and leave our skins silky soft. There are many options for removing hair, but one of the most popular is Waxing. Waxing has been around for quite some time now, but has proven to give quick, instant results. These results don't just last for a few days either, for some, the results can last up to 6 weeks.
Depilatories such as hair removing creams and razors, remove the hair at the skin's surface, this results in very quick re-growth, for many as soon as the next day. With this in mind it can prove quite tedious and time consuming. The other option is what we call "epilatories", these include tweezing, sugaring and of course waxing. This method works by pulling the hair out at the root to give longer term results. The new growth will take longer to travel to the surface, giving you weeks of hair free legs etc.
Waxing has proved so popular due to the fact that, although it can be slightly painful during the procedure, it is over so fast that you barely have time to think about it. It is effective on both small areas such as eyebrow shaping, or indeed on large areas like the back. In fact many men have waxing done, particularly on the chest and back areas, as fashion dictates that smooth, hair free torso's are "in"! hairy backs are not considered cool, and hence most men visit salons up and down the country to achieve the hairless effect they want. Men such as body builders, want to achieve that smooth, silky look, especially when they are competing in events.
Waxing is normally carried out by a specially trained therapist in a salon, however over the counter products are readily available to purchase. Caution should be taken however if using at home, as so many things could go wrong. Most home waxes will be heated using a microwave, but the temperature it reaches is crucial. If it is too warm it can actually burn you and cause serious skin irritation and damage. If on the other hand it has not reached a high enough temperature then it will be difficult to apply and you will end up in a mess. It is also really important to apply the wax in the direction of the hair growth, but to remove it in the opposite direction. Get either of these steps wrong and you could have a disaster on your hands! So unless you are experienced at hair waxing, I would certainly recommend leaving it to the professionals.
Therapists are used to carrying out waxing on a daily basis, and know exactly what they are doing. They aim to make it as effective and pain free as possible. They do this by applying pressure to the area they are working on, to hold the skin taught which facilitates the removal and causes less pain. The more often you have it done the less sensitive your skin becomes. Also with regular waxing for hair removal, you will find that the hair growth is finer and not as thick and strong.
Cost wise, waxing is fairly in-expensive compared to many other alternatives on the market and so is accessible to most of us. Some of us go on a monthly/6 weekly basis, and others will only go for occasions such as pre-holiday, to prevent the hassle of shaving on holiday. All in all, waxing does offer us the result we want, which is smooth, soft, hair free skin, which lasts a number of weeks.
