How To Get Rid Of Pubic Hair - Waxing Or Sugaring

Believe it or not, there is no set way to determine if you should look into pubic hair removal. The ultimate decision is up to you and many individuals see this in a different light. Some individuals find that just trimming the hair is enough while others are looking for the Brazilian wax where all hair is removed. How should it be done? What is the right way to go about it?

Should You Wax?

Most individuals find that the most successful and the most beneficial type of hair removal for the pubic area is through waxing. It is safe, although it can be somewhat painful. But, it is also inexpensive and lasts a good while, so it is by far the most chosen method of hair removal.

Although waxing is not a permanent solution, it can help to keep hair at bay for several weeks at a time. The hair is removed directly from the shaft, which means that the follicle is not necessary damaged and will re-grow hair. On a positive note, many individuals find that the hair that does grow back is not as coarse or as dark. And, in some cases, people find that the hair is also less with each procedure. This is due to the damage that can be caused to the follicle during the procedure. If the follicle is damaged and cannot grow hair, you get a more permanent solution.

Getting The Hair Removed

There are many reasons why you should look into waxing. First, you can do this yourself if you like. There are several at home kits that you can use. If you would like to, you can also look into having a professional do the work for you as well. While it will cost more, you'll get a better result and you won't have to do the work yourself. Also, when you wax the pubic hair, you can control how much and what shape you want to wax in.

When purchasing products to use for waxing, make sure that the products you purchase can be used in this area of the body as some products will not be sensitive enough for it.

Sugaring

Have you heard of sugaring? The technique is much the same as waxing but instead of using the wax, a sugar based mixture is used. It is organic and it is much easier to clean up. It has been used for centuries. The paste, made out of honey and lemon is applied to the skin allowed to harden and then pulled off. The hairs will stick to the sugary paste and will come right out.

For most individuals, waxing is the method of choice for the removal of hair in the pubic region. It is safe when the right products are used and it is a solution that will last a long while. Another benefit is that it is much less expensive than the use of electrolysis or that of lasers. If you are considering this hair removal process, look for high quality products to use.

How Can Waxing Rid You Of Unsightly Body Hair?

Are you using waxing as a hair removal technique? If not, then you should consider it. The process of waxing is very old and one that has been used in one way or another for thousands of years (dating back to ancient Egypt even) and can work very well for you today. What is it? It is the removal of hair from the root through a process of applying a wax and then quickly removing it. And, yes, waxing does hurt a bit but it is only temporary and can give you hair free results for up to six to eight weeks. All in all, it can be well worth it.

Where To Wax?

Waxing can safely be done throughout the body. Individuals use it for their legs, eyebrows, bikini areas and much larger hairs such as their chest, stomach and back. You can have it done so that you can shave time off of your swimming competition or to help you to just look the way that you enjoy looking.

What Is It?

What's in the wax? The mixture that you will use is a combination of paraffin or beeswax and natural oils. These products are chosen since they work well with the body and stick to the skin. There are two types, cold and hot waxing. Some have supplements in them to help improve the skin's feel and texture.

Hot Waxing: In this method of waxing, a hot but comfortable temperature is used for the wax. It is spread onto the area in the direction of the hair growth. When the wax cools, it is torn off quickly in the opposite direction, pulling the hair out with it. Usually, this gives the best results in waxing.

Cold Waxing: In this method of waxing, the strips of cloth are coated with the wax and them applied to the skin. The strips are rubbed in the direction of the hair growth and then ripped off in the opposite direction.

After you wax your skin, you can use a treatment of a non perfumed moisturizer. This will help to restore the feel of the skin by adding Vitamin B and Aloe Vera to it. Whatever you do, you do not want to go swimming, use a spa or hot tub, tan, or apply perfume, deodorant or other chemicals to the area that was just waxed as these can cause infections and pain.

It is important that you carefully look at your skin prior to using any type of waxing. You should not use in areas where there are open sores, infection, moles, warts or other skin irritations. You should never attempt to wax eyelashes, ear hair, nose hair or nipple hair. And, you should make sure that you use the appropriate combination of wax for specific areas such as pubic hair. Make sure to test the temperature of the wax so that you do not get burned too.

Waxing has been around for centuries because it is an effective way to remove hair. There are not normally side effects besides a little bit of pain and redness. And, you can do it at home or in a salon. Waxing is an effective method to remove unwanted hair from virtually every area of your body.

Forget Painful Shaving, Waxing, and Sugaring - the Philips Epilator - Your New Best Friend

Among some of the top rated epilators on the market today are Philips Epilators. They have some wonderful epilators using the best technology for smooth skin and even with pain softeners.

As examples of two of the most popular epilators we will look at Philips Epilator HP6443 Satinelle and Philips Satinelle Epilator HP6409.

The Philips Satinelle HP6443 is a two speed epilator with pain softener which improves the epilation. It is designed for all body areas, including the bikini line and underarms. The unique Pincette system uses 21 rotating discs that will remove even the shortest hair of 0.5mm. You will be able to choose from 2 speeds for fast and comfortable hair removal. The pain softener attachment is very easy to remove for cleaning. It comes in a mellow pink finish and includes a very nice storage or traveling pouch, cleaning brush and protective cap.

The Philips Satinelle Epilator HP6409 has all the great features as the one above but comes in a smaller compact size which is easier for traveling and carrying with you. The soft precision cap is awesome and will reduce the number of active discs which will provide you with a gentler epilation on all your sensitive areas. The rubber fingers are in a row on the cap and massage and stretch your skin which also reduces the pain. The shaving head of the Philips Epilator HP6409 is exchangeable for when you prefer to shave instead of epilate. The two speed setting will give you the freedom to adjust the speed for thin or thicker hairs. This epilator comes in pumpkin orange with pearl white trim.

These are just two of the most popular epilators on the market today that will give you smooth skin and give you the freedom of being hair free for up to 4 weeks. You will not have to worry about your bikini line or your underarms any more when you have a Philips Epilator close at hand.
