Waxing
What is it?

There are two types of waxing, the clinic or at home in the bathroom. But the basic principle remains the same: You (or a cosmetologist) smear hot wax out of the area you want to remove hair from. Then you put a small piece of cloth over the wax a few seconds. And riitsj - you pull the whole lot off.


The hair being torn out by the roots, and therefore you remain hair free for weeks. Many also feel that the hair becomes finer and fewer with time, so they finally do not have to be grown very often. Wax can be used all over the body.

The main disadvantage of this method is without doubt the pain: It does really, really bad to pull hair out this brutal manner, and therefore there are many women who choose waxing. Dedicated wax fans claim, however, that it would do less harm, the more times you get it done.

It requires a special technique to pull hairs out. The small fabric pieces to be quickly plucked a 40-degree angle, and it could take some (painful) time to learn how to do it properly themselves. Therefore, it pays to get a professional to do it the first few times, so you can lure her tricks of, before you throw yourself over the home-waxing.

For those who have the courage to throw yourself into the home in the bathroom: Azulene wax from Gigi can be used even on very sensitive skin. It costs 99 dollars on b4beauty.dk. Remember to buy strips!

After waxing is a great risk of skin irritation and ingrown hairs. Avoid tight, synthetic clothes and perfumed products in the area a day after waxing. After a few days when the skin has fallen completely to rest, you should exfoliate thoroughly with a good body scrub - it helps to prevent ingrown hairs.

It is important that you do not grow on scars, moles, sunburn and other skin irritations. In addition, be careful if you have diabetes because it increases the risk of infections.
