The warm weather is officially here, which means lighter clothes and more skin to bare! Luckily, when it comes to hair removal there are different options for different skin types and even price points. Check out the pros and cons of these forms of hair removal and you decide which one works best for you.
Electric razors
The electric razors are great when you travel, they are small and do not weigh much: perfect to carry in your bag! An advantage of this type of hair removal is that they pull out the hair from the root, which means that you can enjoy softer skin longer. In addition, they are inexpensive, so they last long, so you will enjoy it for years. It is not recommended to use in sensitive areas, as this type of hair removal usually irritates the skin.
Hot wax
It is perhaps one of the oldest and most traditional methods. You can buy wax that is made with natural ingredients. And since it pulls the hair from the root, this type of hair removal leaves the skin smooth and with the effects of the heat, the pain is more bearable. The only drawback is that you will probably have to go to a beauty salon if you want this type of hair removal. If you want to do it at home, you have to practice a lot and not use too much wax, you only need a thin layer to do the trick. You also have to be very careful because the hot wax could burn your skin.
Warm wax
This type of wax has basically the same effects as the previous one, however, since it is not super hot wax, it is less likely to burn your skin when you do it at home. The only problem is that again, you need to invest money into buying the special hair removal machine. Also, it takes longer to use this method because you need to wait for the wax to get a bit warm.
Cold wax
This type of wax is very practical and cheap. You can buy it at any beauty supply store, you cannot burn your skin, and you do not need to be an expert to do it. You can even ask a friend to help you! Does it hurt? A little, but most waxes do.
Depilatory creams
This type of hair removal is very simple and fast, however, it has some drawbacks. This type of hair removal actually burns the hair so it does not root out. As well as burning hair, it can irritate the skin. It is also not recommended to use in sensitive areas and the effects are not long lasting. Most women use depilatory creams in small areas, like the mustache, but the results may take some time.
