With summer in full swing, the need to have a perfect summer body ready for a season of BBQs, beach parties and sunbathing has many of us on the hunt for a hair removal solution. Thankfully, there are a number of solutions for unwanted hair and we are here to help you work out just what they are. Here, we are going to look at the top five treatments for removing unwanted hair.
Laser Hair Removal
As an increasingly popular form of hair removal, laser hair removal is quickly changing the lives of women across the globe. Laser hair removal is becoming more and more affordable and allows you to destroy the hair at the follicle to prevent rapid growth and help you reduce how much hair is growing back in the long-term. This is beneficial for those with a busy schedule who want long-lasting results, as it means that the visits do not have to be as frequent.
Sugar Waxing
Sugar waxing is an extremely effective way of removing hair that can be done either at home or within a salon. It uses melted sugar to act as a natural wax strip and pulls the hair out from the follicle. While not as effective as laser hair removal, this ensures that the hair will still take longer to grow back and leave your skin hair-free for longer than shaving. What’s more, the sugar that isn’t used during the treatment can be reheated, meaning that it reduces the amount of waste being made throughout the treatment. This is also a more natural and soothing way of removing the hair as the lemon juice within the melted sugar helps to keep the exposed skin clean and sterile for the best quality experience and reduced chance of inflammation.
Hair Removal Cream
This is one of the most widely accessible forms of hair removal, however, it is also one of the most time-consuming. Hair removal cream is typically spread onto the skin and left for 10 mins, before being removed and taking the hair with it. However, unlike waxing, this only reduces the hair on the surface. This is a major drawback for some, as it means that the hair will grow back much faster so it will have to be applied far more frequently when compared to laser hair removal or waxing.
Plucking
Plucking is ideal for unwanted facial hair or hairs that have been missed, including eyebrows or stray hairs on chins etc. Plucking allows you to grab each individual hair and pull out the follicle in most instances, once again ensuring that it takes longer for the hair to grow back. Of course, this would not be considered efficient on large expanses of unwanted hair simply due to how time-consuming it would be! It’s important to ensure that the tweezers that you are using are sterile to ensure that you get minimal irritation following the plucking process.
Dermaplaning
Not only does this style remove unwanted hair, but it also removes dead skin cells to help rejuvenate the skin and make the face appear as smooth as possible. This helps to also boost the level of collagen within the skin to increase quality and glow, as well as benefitting makeup application thanks to the exfoliating nature.
With this in mind, there are multiple ways that you can remove unwanted hair that all vary depending on your pain tolerance. However, it is important to consider the type of result that you want and how long you want it to last for before you commit to your hair removal option. Enjoy!
