For more than a thousand years, representatives of the beautiful half have resorted to such a cosmetic procedure as removing unwanted hair. Today, there are many ways, both ancient and newfangled. This is shaving, and special devices - epilators, and even salon-medical procedures (laser hair removal and photoepilation). However, the choice of many ladies is precisely the wax for depilation at home.
Alas, it is regrettable to admit that any, even the most modern way of removing unwanted hair has not only advantages, sometimes significant, but also disadvantages, sometimes equally significant. And it is wax for hair removal, used at home without any problems, that has a minimal set of disadvantages. So, before choosing this method, it is worth familiarizing yourself with why it is bad and why.
First of all, the main disadvantage of such a hair removal tool as wax for depilation at home is the pain of the procedure. Of course, the pain threshold and sensitivity are different for everyone, but there are much less painful methods of dealing with hair. In addition, after using wax, irritation on the skin and ingrown hairs are possible (which is extremely unpleasant). In no case should you buy this product during pregnancy, diabetes and varicose veins, as well as with a large number of moles on the skin. Well and, of course, wax is hardly suitable for too sensitive young ladies. Here, perhaps, are all the disadvantages.
Now about the merits. Wax for depilation at home and in the salon - this, of course, hurts, but new hairs grow thin and can gradually disappear completely. Yes, and remove the second and subsequent times much less painful. In addition, the effect of the procedure lasts about a month, which is very pleasing.
Waxing is carried out quickly enough, and the pain passes too quickly. The main thing here is to choose the composition suitable for yourself and carefully carry out the procedure so as not to get burned (if warm or hot hair removal is chosen). However, wax for depilation at home is always sold together with a spatula equipped with a special indicator that warns of overheating of the product. Well, the last, very important point: you can buy this tool almost everywhere, and at a price it is more affordable than salon and hardware cosmetic procedures.
The procedure is quite simple. The day before it is necessary to use any, which is more like, body scrub. Just before the removal itself, it is better to take a bath to steam out the body (then the hair will be removed easier, easier and with less pain). Then you should treat the skin with a disinfectant (and hands too!). Only then is hair removal performed. In the end, it is worth applying a disinfectant, and then a serum or cream against hair growth (the effect of hair removal will be longer). This should be done another week (after a shower or bath).
The only thing worth remembering: you can not do waxing during menstruation (the body is already so bad, you should not “finish it off”) and at least every other day you should use a hard washcloth, rubbing it with your body. And it’s better to wear quality linen made from natural fabrics without torturing the body with synthetics.
Well, of all the brands on the market, the best, according to many, is wax for epilation veet (only wax, not strips). This is a classic version, high-quality, convenient to use, with a pleasant smell. The hairs are removed perfectly. The remnants of the wax are immediately very easily washed off with water (it is better not to tighten it, otherwise you will have to wipe it with oil). The only moment: this tool is only for normal skin.
