6 Popular Hair Removal Methods
Autumn may seem to be a strange time of year to worry about hair removal. Afterall, with the summer over you can neglect your sugaring, waxing, and shaving, and tuck your legs into tights and long pants, and your fuzzy underarms into bulky sweaters. Hair removal for the underarms, and…ouch, bikini line is out of sight, out of mind for a few glorious seasons. However, that means you can take the time to decide on the best hair removal for your personal needs. Be it shaving, waxing, sugaring, laser removal, threading, or electrolysis, let’s break down the different types and compare how they rid us of unwanted hair… Waxing The good news about waxing is that this hair removal method can last up to 3- to 6-weeks before hair grows back. The bad news? Waxing can be rather painful, as it literally rips hair out by the root using a sticky wax and cloth strips to grab onto hairs. It’s similar to the feeling of pulling off a band-aid, but aestheticians concur that the pain lessens over time as the hair becomes finer with frequent treatments. Waxing treatments can be costly, at up to $50 and $80 for a qualified professional.
