Underarm hair removal is not such a difficult task, but you want the effect to be as long as possible, the skin beautiful and the procedure painless. Is it possible? Below is written about the ways in which underarm hair removal can be performed at home.
Shaving
Perhaps the most popular way is to shave. Still, you can buy a razor in any store, and the procedure itself does not take much time. But there are some disadvantages. Firstly, the skin can be damaged. In addition, irritation may begin, and it does not look beautiful at all. And even shaved hair literally every other day or two begins to grow back and becomes harder and darker, “stumps” appear.
Waxing
Underarm epilation can be done using wax. The essence of this procedure is that the heated and softened wax is applied to the treatment area and remains there until it hardens. And after hardening, all this is removed, naturally, along with the extra hairs, which, by the way, break out along with the root. It is worth noting that this procedure is very painful. In addition, redness may occur.
Laser hair removal
Underarm laser hair removal, reviews of which are very positive, can be carried out at home, but only with a home laser epilator. This method of removing unwanted hair is very effective, for example, after several sessions, the hair practically stops growing or becomes completely invisible. But this procedure has some contraindications (for example, with lesions and skin diseases, infections or diabetes) and is performed in compliance with the rules (ban on tanning). In addition, a laser epilator costs a lot of money.
Photoepilation
If you buy a portable photoepilator, then such an armpit hair removal will be quite possible. You have to spend a considerable amount, but the effect will be long. But there are some features of the procedure and contraindications.
Electric epilator
Such a device is quite affordable and is used by many girls and women. But it is worth noting that in the case of processing the armpit zone with this device, painful sensations and redness may occur. In addition, there is a risk of ingrown hairs.
Shugaring
This is the so-called sugar underarm hair removal , which involves the use of pre-prepared sugar paste, which is a mixture of sugar, water and lemon juice that has thickened as a result of heating.
Creams for hair removal
The action of hair removal products is based on the fact that the active substances literally dissolve the hair, as a result of which they are successfully removed. But the root remains in place, so after some time the procedure will have to be repeated. By the way, there is a risk of allergic reactions and redness. Before use, it is worth trying the product in a small area.
It is extremely important to choose the method of hair removal that will be most optimal in a particular case.
