Effective underarm waxing: Experience the feeling of smooth skin
Underarm hair removal with Warm wax Waxing is a popular method for both women and men to get rid of unwanted underarm hair at a hair removal studio. Regardless of whether the underarm hair is long or short, thick or thin, waxing offers an effective solution for achieving smooth, hair-free underarms.
It is particularly common for women to remove underarm hair, as this is often perceived as more aesthetically pleasing and hygienic. But more and more men are also choosing to do so Waxing their underarm hair, as it offers a longer-lasting solution than shaving, and with repeated waxing, the hair often grows back less dense and softer over time.
How does the treatment work?
If you decide to have your underarm hair removed with warm wax at our hair removal studio, here's what you can expect:
Treatment steps
The beautician will discuss the treatment and any potential risks with you. You will be asked to clean your underarms and ensure that no deodorant or other products are on your skin. Your hair should be at least 0.4 cm long so that the wax can grip it.
The beautician warms the wax to the correct temperature. She then applies a thin layer of the wax in the direction of hair growth.
Once the wax is dry, the beautician stretches the skin and quickly pulls the wax off in the opposite direction to hair growth.
After the treatment, you can apply a soothing lotion or gel to relieve any skin irritation. The esthetician will also give you aftercare advice, such as avoiding sun exposure and strenuous exercise for a few days
Benefits of treatment
Hair removal with waxing offers many advantages, especially when treating the underarms:
- Longer-lasting results: Unlike shaving, which only cuts the hair at the skin's surface, waxing removes the hair from the root. This results in smoother skin that remains hair-free for weeks.
- Finer and less dense regrowth: Regular waxing can lead to finer and less dense regrowth. This is because waxing weakens the hair follicle, which slows growth and alters the texture of the regrowing hair.
- No stubble: Because the hair is removed at the root, the hairs grow back with a fine tip, resulting in less harsh stubble than after shaving.
- Exfoliation: Waxing not only removes hair, it also removes dead skin cells from the skin's surface, resulting in gentle exfoliation. This leaves the skin soft and smooth.
- Reduced risk of cuts and razor burn: Unlike shaving, which can easily lead to cuts and razor burn, waxing does not carry these risks.
- Time saving: Although a waxing session takes longer than a shave, you don't have to repeat it as often, which saves time in the long run.
However, keep in mind that waxing can be more painful at first than other hair removal methods. Over time, though, the skin gets used to the process, and many people find that waxing becomes less painful with each session.
