Hai Removal 101

Hair Removal! In the Brazilian Beauty post I mentioned Brazilian wax, and I was inspired to talk all about dem hairs.

Permanent

You have  two options when it comes to permanent hair removal, Laser and Electrolysis. It's no secret that Laser and Electrolysis are painful, but it does eliminate the pain you have over time with options like waxing. Laser is pretty popular right now, both in clinic option and at home option. Make sure you go to a trusted laser center and don't go for cheaper options.

Not Permanent

 There are a lot of options in this area, shaving, sugaring, waxing, threading and creams. Sugaring is really popular in the middle east, because we are more hairy obviously. Shaving is more of the western thing. I can say proudly I have tried everything and here is the juice. Sugaring is painful but gets the job done for a long time, waxing is sugaring older less messy sister, shaving and cream only happens when I am in hurry cause BAM 1 day later hair is back and finally threading is for small areas like face and knuckles.

Timing

All I know is you don't remove your hair when you're on your period or like 2-3 days before it. I am not sure what exactly happens, but I know that it grows back very fast and it results in ingrown hair. 
If you used any kind of harsh chemicals on your skin like body hair bleach or hair removing cream, it's best to wait at least 24 hours before waxing or shaving. Your skin might be a little bit inflamed and by removing hair you are making the damage bigger.
