Even if you want a soft, hairless face and a hairless body, but don’t want to spend a lot of money in beauty salon treatments? Whatever it is, here are some DIY hair removal products you can use in the comfort of your own home.
Epilators
A device that holds several hairs and pulls them out. The results are as good as waxing, but since it’s a bit painful (like a mini clip), you probably won’t use it on particularly in your sensitive areas. A lot of people would still choose cream instead of wax and epilators.
Razors
The simplest, cheapest and easiest method. Razors are almost pain-free. You probably think manual razors are old-fashioned and conservative, but a lot of people prefer them over electric shavers and epilators. Women’s razors are turning into technology these days. Some have already come with cream dispensers that are substantial and have more blade heads.
There is no much difference between a man’s and a woman’s razor, except for the style. With women’s razors made a little longer, you can easily shave your legs. The disadvantage of using a razor is that the hair grows back faster than when using other procedures. The hair also becomes thicker and sometimes have some itchy reddish follicles after shaving. Also, there are possibilities of getting some nicks and cuts.
Depilators
Hair melts away with depilatory creams. They are simple, easy and economical. However, hair removal lotions may cause skin irritation so you should always do a test patch on your skin and make sure not to leave the cream longer than instructed.
Wax
Compared to razors or creams, hair takes longer to grow as it’s pulled from the roots. Some don’t like it because of the pain, and because of the effort warm it up. And sometimes, pieces of wax is left on your body. However, it is truly effective.
Sugaring
The sugar is similar to wax, but they are made with natural ingredients like sugar, lemon juice and essential oils. You cannot be prone to sugar allergies, even if you need to examine a piece of skin, but you still have to do a test patch. Sugar is preferable in case you can’t stand the pain you can wash it off. For the brave, the result is more significant than with wax.
At-Home Laser
This is the best so far. The equipment costs a few hundred dollars. This uses intense pulse light (IPL), which converts light energy to get rid of the hair. There might be some who will experience burning skin, but the effect lasts a long time. The hair grows back, but it’s no longer thick or dense. Some also claim their hair is permanently gone. If this is the case, the mild pain is definitely worth it.…
