The modern world dictates its own rules of beauty. And one of them is smooth, silky skin. It is not only fashionable, but also beautiful. Although the roots of this tradition go deep into the past, even in the time of Solomon, women diligently got rid of excess hair in order to look even more attractive. Science also comes to the aid of modern beauties. If before the main methods for combating unwanted hair were wax and
sugar syrup, this list is now much wider.
The most inconvenience is the hair on the legs. And not only in the summer, when short shorts and skirts, and swimsuits, cease to hide them. I want to be beautiful both in autumn and winter, when the season of stockings and tights comes. Therefore, the hair on the legs tend to remove in the first place. This procedure has an advantage - you can use almost all methods of depilation and epilation, if they do not cause individual intolerance.
What procedures can be used to remove unwanted hair?
Shaving
Suitable if smooth skin is needed here, now and in 5 minutes. Cons: often causes skin irritation; hair grows back quickly; a razor damages the upper layer of the skin. When choosing this method of hair removal, you will have to shave the selected part almost every day.
Epilator
Now on the market there is a huge selection of such machines. Epilators of different companies slightly differ purely technically, sometimes the result also depends on this. The general principle of this technology is as follows: small tweezers on the discs, rotating at a sufficiently high speed, remove the hairs with the root. Pros: the effect will last for 1-4 weeks; a fairly simple procedure that can be easily overcome on your own. Cons - soreness, especially with very grown hairs and in sensitive areas. In order to reduce it, it is recommended to carry out the procedure after the bath (which will improve the quality) or using painkillers (special ointments). The epilator is very good for removing hair on the legs, since the skin there is not very sensitive.
Wax
Waxing or bio epilation. A fairly simple way to remove leg hair. But the effect will not last very long, because not all hairs are uprooted. Popular home methods are applying hot wax to the desired areas or using special strips. The second method is more universal, and hot wax will need to be specially heated. Pros: wax strips can be used anywhere, they do not require electricity; quite a long effect (1-2 weeks). Cons: immediately a lot of hair breaks out, which is quite painful; wax is not recommended for allergies to its components and skin problems.
Depilatory creams
They are simply applied to selected areas of the body and after some time they are removed with special plates along with the hairs. Pros: fast; no discomfort; the skin is not damaged. Cons: short effect; allergies may occur.
If you are thinking about how to slow down the growth of leg hair after these procedures, pay attention to various creams designed specifically for this. They not only slow down hair growth, but also prevent their growth.
