Most women dislike having to remove hair from their legs and other parts of their body, but it is customary in the US for this to be done. Therefore, more and more women in Barrington are wondering whether shaving, laser removal or waxing is a better choice. While it can be considered a personal choice, many women are considering lasers to help remove unwanted hairs from the body.
Shaving
Shaving is the easiest option, by far, though it only removes hairs from the skin’s surface, and you have to put a sharp razor next to your delicate skin. It works best on the legs and underarms though it can also be used on the arms, genital region and face.
It offers many benefits, such as being inexpensive and relatively painless, unless you are prone to nicks or cuts. Moisturizers, such as shaving cream, are often used to keep the skin from becoming irritated and keep it softer. However, women also use conditioner and soap.
The drawbacks are few, but can be extremely bothersome to many. These include re-growth in as little as one day, thicker-looking hairs, razor burn and cuts. Ingrown hairs can also occur.
Waxing
Waxing can also be done though it is best to use a professional. Warm wax is placed on the area to have hairs removed, and a unique paper is placed on the wax. It is pulled in the opposite direction of growth to pull out hairs at the root. It is perfect for use on the legs, bikini area, and underarms.
Because the wax must adhere to your hairs, you will need to wait until it has grown out again before waxing again. This can be problematic if you always want smooth legs. Typically, the treatments can be painful because your hairs are being ripped out of the body, though, over time, you will get used to the sensation.
Lasers
Lasers can also be used to remove hairs, and the laser will penetrate the skin to target the hair shafts. This prevents new hairs from growing for an extended period. While it is not a permanent solution, it will reduce the hairs and can last for a longer period than shaving or waxing.
It does not damage the skin though it can be painful. Many women have associated laser removal with a rubber band being snapped against the skin.
Laser hair removal in Barrington can help remove unwanted hairs and keep your body smooth.
