Waxing is one of the most popular services provided at spas. Even with the best care, waxing is likely to leave you with some leftover hair that you’d like to have removed. But is waxing really a good idea?
When you think back to your mother or father, you might recall how they liked to pull at your hair or style it in some way. If your mother or father had a warm relationship with the hair service, you likely would too. In a survey, waxing was picked as the preferred method for removal of hair in women. Among men, the preferred method was shaving.
There are some reasons behind this. Waxing is inexpensive. It can be done easily at home. And it’s fast. You save considerable time by waxing than you would by shaving. But is waxing really a good idea?
Lots of women are very sensitive to waxing. This method involves applying a hot wax to your skin and letting it sit for a few minutes. This allows the wax to harden and, eventually, pull the hair out. But if you are among those who are sensitive to waxing, you’d know that the red bumps and pain you experience after waxing are not at all like those who have experienced laser treatments.
Laser hair removalhot wax, which is produced by a company called Epuri, has very sophisticated and advanced technology. It is used for sensitive skin areas and for envisioning laser hair removal. Try it and you’ll remember how smooth and painless it is.
Some spas offer laser hair removal. But it is recommended that you seek a professional to perform this procedure. The reason is that this is a medical procedure, and a professional will be able to provide you with the safest and most effective treatment.
If you see a professional, they will likely conduct an initial consultation to determine how your skin and hair respond to treatment. They’ll test a small portion of the area you want treated, just to check how your skin reacts. This is all it takes before giving you the go ahead to get laser treatment.
Laser hair removalis considered to be a spa treatment, and done in a way that minimizes the discomfort of the process. The specialist will probably apply a cooling gel to the area they will be performing the procedure, and might apply a muscle relaxant to make the treatment more comfortable.
It may be relatively painless, though you may feel light-headed or feel raw for a short while. But after a couple of days, you should be able to reduce the swelling and pain, and enjoy the results.
A pro or vanity role model can be a great way to find a spa. Women role models are usually people we admire for particular reasons. And when we see someone on the street with strands of silky smooth, gorgeous hair, we can’t help but wonder how they do it.
Silkeningis a term used to describe the process of removing dead or damaged hair from the body in a fashion-related setting. Think of it as “spa food” or “laser party food”. Imagine going to a laser party.
At a silkening spa, clients get a light lunch (lunch, not a meal) and go home with a silkening product that will clean and beautify their skin for weeks to come.
Silkening is a through-step procedure that starts with a patch test first. Most people will usually have this done at a salon, but some spas will do it in-house. Either way, the process begins with a thorough unclipping process. The client will shave their armpits and neck, but leave the hair line above the chin untouched. When you unclip your hair, make sure that it is clean and there are no leftover staples or zip ties in the hair. Next, you line the ears up with the newly-entsified holes for the hair trimmer. It is important to start on the thicker-sized holes first, so that the cutting will be efficient. On the smaller holes, work downward, using a rough and healthy feeler as your guide. Pros and cons of using a blade or tweezers to push the hair up a bit are pretty much the same as when you flipped a coin. The difference is that with a blade, you are able to cut multiple times as long as you are careful.
After every single cut, go over each ear with a dryer to eliminate tangles, and to keep the hair looking crisp. When you have the hang of it, hair experts recommend you blast your hair with cold air after every cut. This will help seal the cuticles and increase the life of the hair. For a perfect finish, let the hair dry completely.
There are different levels of coarseness that suit every taste.
