For a very long time there was a belief: the thicker the hair on the body, the happier and richer the future awaits a person.. Now, no promises of wealth will stop the modern young lady: spring is coming, it's time to get naked - and therefore the hairs on the body await total extermination. Let's get acquainted with the main ways to safely and most effectively remove vegetation from the body, according to the online publication for girls and women from 14 to 35 years old Pannochka. net Cosmetologists offer two types of hair removal - depilation and epilation. Depilation is a mechanical hair removal that does not affect the follicle (bulbs). As part of the epilation, the bulb from which the hair grows is destroyed. Both methods have their pros and cons.

Simple, quick and short-term The main types of depilation are primitive plucking with tweezers, shaving and chemical depilation. The first option is hardly possible to use in any areas other than eyebrows.. But shaving and chemical hair removal have one significant advantage: low price. A cream for chemical hair removal costs from 50 to 300 rubles, a razor - around 100 rubles. In addition, you can practice these methods at home and on your own..

It is a misconception that shaving makes hair grow faster and thicker.. Studies have confirmed that shaving does not affect the rate of hair growth and their structure.. Hair growth is determined by internal factors - genes and hormones. Basically, the hairs grow about 0.2 mm per day, and this only says that you have a healthy body..

To shave or not to shave?

According to statistics, more than 70% of Russian women prefer shaving to other methods of depilation.. However, this method has one big drawback: the hairs begin to grow literally the next day.. If you have delicate skin, then there is a danger of irritation, the appearance of pustules, ingrown hairs, especially in the armpits and bikini area.

But if you still chose this method, then here are some tips. The razor should be changed once every two weeks.. Use shaving gels to avoid irritation. Shaving against the direction of hair growth is more likely to cause ingrown hairs.. Shaving according to hair growth is much more difficult.. Therefore, it is recommended to prepare in advance for the procedure.. In a day or two, start using a body scrub. Hair will rise up and be easier to shave. It is recommended to shave your hair in the morning, at this time the skin is the most elastic and least prone to damage..

Chemistry, chemistry... Chemical depilation is carried out using lotions, gels, creams, aerosols and other means. Effective, painless and pretty fast. The action of chemical depilators is that the composition enters the hair, and the chemicals dissolve their protein base.. This causes the hairs to begin to separate from the surface of the skin..

The method is simple: apply the product to the place to be depilated, and keep for as many minutes as indicated in the instructions.. After that, slowly remove the product along with the hairs with a special plastic machine or rinse with a sponge.. Thus, hair of any length can be removed..

Before applying the cream, do not forget to cleanse the skin, it should not be oily, otherwise you risk not completely removing the hair.. When using chemical depilation in the bikini area, be sure to test for sensitivity. To do this, you need to apply a small amount of the product to the area of \u200b\u200b\\u200b\\u200bthe skin and see if an allergic reaction appears.. After chemical depilation, hair begins to grow at least a day later. Discard this method if the skin has damage or burns.. The disadvantages of this method are the possibility of an allergic reaction, irritation, poor dissolution of proteins if the hair is thick.

During chemical depilation, during the reaction of dissolving hairs, a very toxic substance is released - hydrogen sulfide, which has a bad effect on the skin. Therefore, despite the effectiveness and simplicity, it is better not to get carried away with chemical depilation.. If you depilate the lower legs and bikini area once a month, there will be no particular harm.. The more often, the more attack you will expose your skin.

uproot!

If depilation does not affect the bulb, then within the framework of epilation, on the contrary, the main attack is directed at the hair root. In this way, a more lasting effect is achieved: the legs and other epilated parts of the body remain smooth for five days or more..

Motorized epilation One of the safest ways to remove hair is vibroepilation.. The procedure is painful and, unfortunately, gives only a temporary cosmetic result.. In order to anesthetize it as much as possible, epilator manufacturers come up with various tricks: supply the epilator with ice - this is how local anesthesia is performed - or release epilators that put increased pressure on the treated area,? - and this seems to be easier too... In fact, you have to select an epilator individually. You may have to go through several models until you pick up the epilator that will not torment you and, in addition, will remove the maximum vegetation.. We regret to admit that the more expensive the epilator, the more effective it is, as a rule..

After vibroepilation, it is recommended to use lotions or creams to slow down hair growth.. They moisturize the skin, relieve irritation and, as stated in the instructions, slow down hair growth.. Thus, for at least a week you will be calm for the smoothness of your epilated body..

Wax torture Bioepilation is hair removal with wax (or waxing). This method has three varieties: cold, warm and hot..

Cold wax is applied to a special tape, and the whole structure is glued to the body.. After a certain period of time, the tape is torn off against hair growth.. This type of bioepilation is suitable for small areas of skin.. To remove thick and coarse hair, it is preferable to use warm or hot wax..

The main composition of warm wax is resin with honey or beeswax. After application, the skin begins to breathe, as the wax opens the pores. It usually uses various additives, which softens the hair removal.. This type is suitable for people with sensitive skin..

Hot wax contains resin and petroleum products. The mixture is applied to the body heated to 38-42 degrees. This method is not recommended for home use to avoid burns..

Every woman who has gone through waxing knows how painful it is.. But the result is worth it: you are free from hair for 2 weeks or even more. For the procedure to be as successful as possible, the hairs must grow up to 4-5 mm, otherwise they may not “catch”. With some experience and skills, waxing can be done at home.. But if you have never experienced waxing, it is better to do the first procedure in the salon..

Sugar legs Another type of bioepilation is performed using sugar paste and is therefore called " The paste is brought to a boil, and then cooled and applied in the same way as wax, in a cold state.. After that, the fabric is glued and torn off against hair growth.. The advantage of sugaring is that the paste lies more tightly on the skin and removes even the shortest hairs 1-2 mm long..

History of vegetation control? The very first attempts to get rid of unwanted hair were noted in ancient Egypt.. The legendary beauties Nefertiti and Cleopatra, as well as noble men of that time, actively used wax masks to remove facial hair - now this method is called "

Women of the Middle Ages had to burn their body hair, twist the hairs, pulling them out with the help of special threads, shave off their eyebrows and hair on their foreheads in order to create the most elevated, heavenly appearance, not disfigured by vegetation..

The first razors (of course, dangerous - at first only professional barbers could use them) appeared in the 16th century.. The first razors were developed in the 19th century.

At 60? In the 1990s, devices began to be gradually introduced in the 1990s, allowing for radical procedures that affect the hair shaft,? – electro and laser hair removal.

Opinion of a specialist Milena Simonova, to. , dermatovenereologist, cosmetologist I highly, very much do not recommend using a razor in the bikini area, since the possibility of irritation is greatest here. And constant discomfort in the bikini area can lead to various, much more serious inflammatory diseases and even a decrease in sexual activity.. If you use a razor for depilation of the armpits, you need to be very careful, because with a cut there is a possibility of introducing microbes, which will lead to the appearance of " Such “bumps” resolve on their own over time, but still bring some discomfort..

To date, a vibroepilator is the simplest, cheapest and most effective device for removing hair for a long time.. But many women refuse it because of the pain that the procedure delivers.. From the experience of my clients, I can say that the most painful is the first procedure.. But do not rush to immediately throw away the device. The second procedure will be easier. The third is even easier. Gradually, the body can get used to even such painful stress..
