Summer is coming and you want your skin to be silky and hairless during the season. You have already tried all types of depreciation (shaving, depilation cream, etc.), And now you may be wondering if you can finally find the courage to wax. Here is a small guide on how to get started.
What is wax?
Waxing is a semi-permanent hair removal method that removes hair from the root. New hair will not grow in a previously waxed area for four to eight weeks. Using wax to remove body hair can be an easy way to keep you neat and tidy, while looking beautiful and beautiful. Men and women alike use the waxing process to achieve their state of personal beauty over the years. Wax can be used on almost any part of the body where you want to remove hair, such as upper lip and face, hands and armpits, legs and the area of your bikini. Many of them have never suffered from the fear of pain that this could have caused them, but in fact there are many people who regularly raise up after treating bad couples. You may find that waxing really makes your hair come off thicker and darker than when you shave.
How is waxing made?
So, you finally found the courage inside you and decided to go for waxing. Now what to expect? First, if the hair is too long, the specialist cuts it off. Then the wax is heated so that it spreads easily and even over the skin in the direction of hair growth, warm wax was applied to the area of waxing with a wooden stick. The hair is placed in a wax that cools and strengthens the hair. Then flake strips are placed on top of the wax. The wax then quickly rolls in the opposite direction of hair growth, pulling the hair out of the follicles along with the dead skin cells. New hair growth in the waxed area is soft and thin. After repeated waxing hair growth is less and less.
As a rule, the process ends fairly quickly - within 5-20 minutes (depending on the wax area). As for pain, it is very individual and depends on your personal sensitivity threshold. You should, however, know that reports range from uncomfortable to very painful. The good news is that after that you will be given some soothing cream or lotion that should help.
Benefits:
* Hair in waxed areas do not grow for four to eight weeks, and when this happens, it is soft and thin.
* Hair is removed from the root, not the surface, which does not create stubble.
* There are no chemicals, and then there is no reaction with wax. At best, you will have a swollen area, red for a few hours, but there is little or no danger that you will be left with scars, ulcers, or some other reaction.
* The cost of waxing is minimal compared to any permanent hair removal methods (for example, laser hair removal or electrolysis).
* And, of course, you can also get a few hairy designs on your body, customized - the upcoming trend after tattoos.
Preparation Tips:
For those looking at wax for the first time, there are some tips on body waxing that you must follow to make your experience less traumatic. The way your body responds to waxing is completely different from your neighbor, but these tips will help minimize pain and take care of your skin afterwards. Having taken care of your skin before and after waxing, you will definitely get a pleasant experience, not pain and negative consequences.
* Your hair length should have grown a little longer than usual so that wax can bind to hair for removal. Many women find it difficult to remove their hair so that they have sufficient length for waxing, but it does not take too long for long hair.
* Be clean before your wax treatment. A skin that has natural oils on it or even dirt will make it harder to wax. Taking a hot shower or applying a warm cloth to an area that needs to be waxed will help clean the pores of your skin and facilitate hair removal.
* Using a body scrub or face scrub in the shower will help remove any dead skin cells in the desired area, as they can cause pain when it comes time for hair waxing.
* There are many different types of stupefying sprays to help with the discomfort of the wax process. Some may find that taking Tylenol or acetaminophen for 30-45 minutes before waxing also helps to cope with any pain caused.
Some women may find that their skin is more sensitive during the menstrual cycle. If so, waxing should be scheduled sooner or later to avoid unnecessary pain.
* If acne is a problem, wait until the skin is cured before moisturizing the hair to avoid further irritation.
* If you choose a bikini wax, make sure that this is not a last minute solution. Last-minute holidays can be spontaneous and fun, but at the last moment bikini wax will make you red and aching for the beach. Bikini waxes must be made at least 24 hours before wearing a bikini. Do not leave the waxed area in the sun for 24 hours to avoid browning.
After the procedure:
* Avoid wearing thick clothing over freshly welded areas to minimize the risk of irritation and ingrown hair.
* After 24-48 hours, peel off the skin with a Loofah sponge to prevent the accumulation of dead skin.
* The next day, you do not want to train not to sweat, and your pores are clogged with dirt and oils.
* Do not try to pop up acne, which you can see from wax, as this can spread bacteria on your skin and create more unwanted acne.
