The Simplest Hair Removal Methods That Can Be Used By Everyone

Nowadays, there are many different possibilities to remove unwanted body hair and it's not an easy task to choose between all methods that are offered. Obviously, people have different needs and a method that may be perfect for one person may not work at all for someone else. Also, each hair removal system has its strengths, but also its weaknesses.

In general, we distinguish between permanent and temporary hair removal systems. Today I would like to show you the 3 most popular temporary hair removal methods with their various advantages and disadvantages.


* Shaving:

Shaving is surely the most well-known method to remove unwanted body hair and it's also still the most popular one. Shaving is cheap, easy and relatively quick. Other advantages of shaving are hat it leaves the skin very smooth and that it is absolutely painless.

But unfortunately, there are also some disadvantages: Hair re-growth is much faster than with other methods and you are required to shave all 1-3 days. The re-grown hair usually feels bristly and stubbly. There is a risk to cut yourself and razor burn may be a problem for some people.


* Hair removal creams:

Hair removal creams are a very interesting alternative to shaving. You simply spread the cream over a patch of hair, you wait a few minutes, and then you use a washcloth soaked in warm water to wash off the cream.

Here are the main advantages: They are cheap and easy to use and you don't have the stubbly effect that you usually experience after shaving. Hair removal creams may be more practical for sensitive and tricky to shave skin areas. The use of a hair removal cream is pain-free. Hair re-growth is much slower than with shaving. Normally, you will have to repeat the process only every 7-10 days.

But there are also some disadvantages: The use of a hair removal cream is more time-consuming than shaving and the process of applying the cream may be a bit messy. Some creams have an unpleasant smell. Different hair removal creams are needed for different skin areas, such as bikini line, back... People with very sensitive skin may have an allergic reaction.


* Waxing

This is the last hair removal method in our list. It is probably the most effective one, but unfortunately also the most painful one. You need to cover the skin area with cold or warm wax, then you add a strip of cloth and after a few seconds the cloth is pulled off taking the wax and the unwanted hair with it.

Here are some of the biggest advantages: As already mentioned, it is very effective and the process needs to be repeated only every 4-6 weeks. Hair grows back finer after several treatments. Large skin areas can be treated in a short amount of time.

And the disadvantages: Waxing is somewhat painful (especially he first time). The hair needs to be at least 1/4 inch long before it can be removed by the wax. Very sensitive, broken or damaged skin areas must be avoided.


So, as you can see, there is not a single method that has only advantages, but no disadvantages. It may also be a good idea to experiment with different methods in order to find the one that is most suited for your personal needs.
