Benefits of a Bikini Wax

Bikini waxing has its own set of advantages and disadvantages, which is why many people opt for the procedure despite the pain. Bikini waxing is effective as waxing tears the hair directly from the root. Because of this, it takes longer for the hair to grow back as the root is embedded several layers beneath the surface of the skin, the time period it takes for the hair to grow back can be more than two to three weeks, which is more efficient than shaving off stubble every other day.

Bikini Waxing

There are some experts that claim that by directly pulling the hair out, you might damage hair follicles around a sensitive area. This might sound grim but can actually be beneficial as hair might grow back to be thinner and less coarse, and for some people it might not grow back at all. Regular waxing on the same area would result in inhibited hair growth, which means over time you would have to get rid of lesser hairs as not many would grow back.

Bikini waxing is more cost effective and less time consuming in comparison to other expensive and permanent treatments such as laser hair removal or hair removal through electrolysis.

Bikini waxing is less damaging to skin in comparison to other temporary hair removal techniques such as depilatory creams and shaving. Shaving can damage your skin in the form of cuts and shaving burns which can be painful as your bikini region is very sensitive.

Skin damage that comes with using hair removal creams can be in the form of pigmentation or skin that smells bad. Today many good salons and estheticians use hundred percent natural waxes to reduce chances of inflaming skin with harsh chemicals.

Hair takes longer to grow back after waxing, and usually the hair that does grow back is softer in finer in comparison to how it would look and feel after shaving, which eliminates chances of growing back hideous stubble which comes with shaving. Waxing is also excellent exfoliation, which rejuvenates skin and removes dead skin cells, something which would be difficult in the bikini region.

You should be careful when getting a bikini wax, because the bikini region is the most sensitive part of your skin. You have to take special methods to prevent irritation. You should always get a professional to do the job for you, as doing a bikini wax at home can be dangerous if you do not know what you are doing.

You should ask your esthetician to do a patch test for you prior to treatment. Often it is advised to wax around your bikini region instead of waxing the entire area, as hair in the bikini region traps germs and infections and protects sensitive skin. You esthetician would know how to trim the hair down to an ideal length when it is medically safe, to ensure that hair doesn’t break halfway with the pull, along with reducing chances of ingrown hair.
