Basic Guide To The Most Common Hair Removal Techniques

Waxing

Individuals who want to see results that last longer may consider waxing. This option is typically done at a spa. However, there are some at-home options available. Usually, individuals will have warm wax applied to their skin. The professional using the wax will then press a cloth strip onto it. The wax must now dry. Once it is finally dry, the technician can rip the cloth away. This removes the wax and the hair along with it. If individuals feel that they can wax at home, they can buy a kit. These kits typically have the wax already applied to the strips.

Individuals just starting to wax can expect three weeks of smooth skin. Those who have waxed for a while may see up to six weeks. Bumps and redness are common among individuals who wax infrequently. Infections may also appear if waxing is not done properly.
