Sugaring Body Sugaring Hair Removal

Friday, May 15th, 2009

Sugaring hair removal is similar to waxing but unlike waxing, does not involve heating the substance that is applied to your skin.

Like waxing, sugaring hair removal can be painful and it tends to offer similar results to waxing in terms of the degree of time that you might be free of the hair.

Generally, unwanted hair might start growing back within several weeks time so like waxing, sugaring is something that you’ll have to do regularly to continue to have hair-free skin.

Some people choose to create their own sugar product at home from a recipe rather than buying it from a store but there are commercially available products available if you’re not into creating one yourself.

Basically, you take a suitable amount of the sugar and press it against the skin to be treated and then cover the sugar with a cloth or paper strip similar to what you’d use for waxing.

You then quickly remove the strip in the opposite direction of the hair growth in a similar fashion to a wax strip to remove the hair. You repeat the process until the unwanted hair is removed.

As with other hair removal options the results and side effects from sugaring hair removal will vary by person. Certain body parts shouldn’t be treated and some body parts are best treated by a professional.

Temporary and permanent hair removal technology is evolving constantly and is relevant to both men and women who want to remove unwanted hair.

Waxing Hair Removal My Experience With Waxing

Sunday, March 22nd, 2009

Waxing hair removal is a temporary method of hair removal that involves spreading a thin layer of heated wax on the unwanted hair and then covering the wax with a thin piece of paper or cloth which is then rapidly pulled off in the opposite direction of the hair growth.

The hair is pulled out at the root and the treatment typically provides several weeks of hair-free skin before the hair starts to grow back again.

An advantage of waxing hair removal over shaving is that shaving tends to only last for a day or two before the prickly feeling of the regrowing hair is noticeable!

My waxing hair removal experiences have generally resulted in several weeks of hair-free skin but I usually get irritated red skin for the first days after treatment.

I also found the process to be messy and somewhat painful especially when large areas of hair were being waxed.

Plus, I was rarely able to do the waxing hair removal myself so I had to recruit someone (ie. my wife) to help.

The fact that you get several weeks of hair-free living (as opposed to possible longer hair-free periods offered by laser and light-based treatment options) makes waxing a less desirable option if you want to avoid regular treatment every few weeks.

I’ve also found that waxing hair removal is often difficult to do right the first time especially in areas with a lot of hair. You might end up having to treat the same area several times to get 100% hair removal.

Hair Removal Tips For Men And Women

Sunday, March 1st, 2009

I’m not a big believer in universal statement unless it’s absolutely 100% truthful. When I read about a hair removal option offering “permanent hair removal” or “painless hair removal” I’m sceptical.

When it comes to hair removal, you’ll quickly find that you need separate fact from fiction, truth from hype. Just because a product is marketed as offering something, it doesn’t mean that it actually does it or that it will work for you specifically.

Here are some hair removal tips to consider when you are weighing your options for hair removal.

  • Ensure your chosen hair removal practitioner has the necessary training, skills and experience to perform the treatment. This is especially true in the case of laser and light-based treatment.
  • Understand all possible side effects before undergoing any treatment.
  • Learn to tell the difference between fact and hype when it comes to marketing claims about various hair removal options.
  • Fully understand the treatment plan of the option you choose ie. how often will you have to take treatment? The more treatments = more cost to you.
  • When appropriate (ie. with laser and light-based treatments) check to see if the processes are government approved.

The bottom line is to ensure you do your research and properly weight your options and the cost, possible side effects and effectiveness of each.

Depilation Depilatory Hair Removal

Friday, December 19th, 2008

Depilation refers to the process of removing visible hair above the skin.

Unlike other temporary hair removal options like waxing and sugaring, depilation does not take the hair out by the root so the hair removal lasts a few days at best. In this regard, it is a very short term method of hair removal.

Popular methods of depilation include shaving and the use of chemical depilatory creams or lotions that are applied directly to the unwanted hair and are then rubbed or rinsed off after a period of time resulting in the hair being removed above the skin.

Because it can refer to various methods of hair removal (ie. shaving, use of depilatory products like creams or lotions) discussing the benefits and considerations under one umbrella is difficult since various depilatories offer different pros and cons.

In general terms, depilation tends to be a cheap method of removing hair temporarily but is one that needs to be done regularly to achieve hair removal since the hair tends to grow back quickly.

If you choose to use chemical depilatory creams or lotions, you might find the smell of some products overpowering and may find that they irritate your skin. You also have to be careful when applying chemical depilatories to ensure you only remove hair that is meant to be removed!

When it comes to shaving depilation, you have several options at your disposal including manual blade razors and electric shavers. Both manual blades and electric shavers are technologies that are being improved all the time so you’re best to evaluate your options and determine what works best for you and your skin rather than simply relying on the opinion of others.

Tweezing Hair Removal The Temporary Method of Plucking and Tweezing

Wednesday, December 17th, 2008

Tweezing refers to removing hairs with an instrument like a pair of tweezers or forceps. It is also sometimes referred to as plucking.

Hair tweezing is sometimes used to deal with unwanted eyebrow hair and some facial hair although clearly precautions need to be taken before you start pulling hairs out from such visible and sensitive areas!

While hair tweezing can help you temporarily remove individual hairs, it is a very limited hair removal option since larger areas cannot effectively be cleared.

While tweezing is a cheap method of temporary hair removal since it just involves buying a pair of tweezers, it remains a temporary method of hair removal with limitations.

Certainly, pulling hairs out individually can be time consuming and painful and could result in ingrown hairs if it’s done improperly.

When it comes to hair tweezing, before you pick up a pair of tweezers and start pulling out hairs, you’re best to consider exactly what hair you want removed and whether or not hair tweezing is the best method to achieve it.

Also, before you start tweezing consider whether or not you may choose laser or light hair removal treatment in the near future.

A laser or light system hair removal practitioner may tell you to avoid tweezing and using other hair removal options before any laser or light treatment you schedule.

If in doubt, consult a professional.
