How to choose a method for deep hair removal
The bikini area is always hidden from prying eyes, nevertheless, every woman tries to pay no less attention to her than, for example, eyebrows... And all because a modern woman, according to the current canons of beauty, should be groomed from the tips of her nails to the tips of her hair. However, such a sensitive issue requires a special solution, since, among other things, the bikini area is very sensitive, which means that the method of hair removal must be suitable.

Deep waxing
Wax is one of the most popular ways to get rid of excess vegetation, including in the bikini area. It should be said right away that the procedure is not for the faint of heart - it is very painful, even with anesthesia. To increase the effectiveness of the procedure, prepare the skin. Be sure to disinfect (with Chlorhexidine) and remove all moisture from the surface (talc or starch).
To increase the pain threshold, you can use lidocaine, which is popular among women. Of course, it will not remove all unpleasant sensations, but it will significantly reduce them.
There are several types of wax:
- hot;
- cold;
- warm.
Cold wax is the most popular for home use. This does not require special skills and there is no need to purchase additional tools. As a rule, it is sold in strips, which must be rubbed with palms before use. Then it is applied to the skin, actively smoothed with hands and with a sharp movement is torn off against the growth of hair. Wax strips are convenient to take with you on the road, for example, on vacation.
Warm wax is more often sold in convenient cartridges. To bring the product to the required temperature, a special device should be purchased. It will not allow the mixture to overheat, which will prevent burns. It is very easy to apply such wax, and to remove it, special strips of non-woven material are used. However, it is not very convenient for hair removal in the bikini area at home.
Hot wax is the best product for the bikini area, but very dangerous to use at home. A high heating temperature and an increased density of the composition are favorable factors for a severe burn. Especially considering the sensitive bikini area. Therefore, it is generally accepted that only professionals work with hot types of wax.
The effect of waxing lasts from two to four weeks. But it is better to carry out the procedure when the hairs reach a length of 4-5 mm. Otherwise, the mass will not capture vegetation so effectively, which will directly affect the results.
Deep hair removal shugaring
Shugaring, or sugar hair removal, one of the most ancient types of hair removal. Popular due to its cheapness and relatively low morbidity. It is perfect for deep bikini epilation, even for those who have previously used exclusively a razor. The unique structure of the sugar paste does not irritate the delicate areas of the body, and the features of the procedure contribute to the early recovery of the skin after epilation and prevents the appearance of ingrown hair problems. The fact is that shugaring means applying a sticky mass against hair growth, and removing it according to growth.
It is convenient to epilate the deep bikini area with sugar paste, even the most. It fits perfectly, perfectly captures hairs and removes them. If everything is done correctly, then even several applications will not be required, just one will be enough.
- Sit comfortably in front of the mirror, spread your legs - this way you will see everything, even the most hidden areas.
- Prepare the skin (degrease and disinfect with Chlorhexidine and remove excess moisture with talcum powder).
- Start applying the sugaring paste to small areas. If the paste is thin, use a spatula and paper strip. If hard, do all the manipulations with your hands, while applying the composition, keep your fingers in relation to the skin at an angle of 90 °. Shugaring, as mentioned above, should be distributed against hair growth.
- Then, as the application is complete, with a sharp movement, begin to remove the composition from the skin with your hand, with a manual technique, or with paper, with a bandage. You shouldn't feel sorry for yourself, so you will do yourself a "disservice" - it will be much more painful and, by the way, less effective.
Finally, the skin needs to be soothed. Decoctions of medicinal herbs are perfect for this: chamomile, a series of calendula. Simply brew your chosen herb, or a mixture of both, and make a ten minute compress. This will reduce the risk of inflammation and irritation.
Deep epilation with epilator
Many girls shudder at the mere mention of this terrible buzzing monster, considering it the subject of a terrible execution. There is also an opinion that the epilator is simply not suitable for such a delicate place. But myths are dispelled - the epilator is great for deep bikini.
Moreover, it is very budgetary and convenient. You only need to buy it once, and after 5 years you can replace it, as the forceps begin to weaken over time. The second advantage is ease of use. If you can dirty everything in wax and shugaring, then everything here is much more aesthetically pleasing: I turned on the buzzer and drive it back and forth until it is "clean". Now on sale there are many epilators, complete with a variety of attachments, designed, among other things, for the bikini area.
However, there are also downsides. First, the ingrown hairs. The epilator can break the hair, leaving the hair shaft in the epidermis. Secondly, strong painful sensations. In principle, over time, of course, you will get used to it. But at the very beginning you will have to try to get used to it. If you buy a good epilator, the hair removal process takes very little time and you won't have to endure the pain for long.
You don't need to do any special preparation procedure. You can steam the skin, but if you don't have time for that, it's okay. This will not affect the effectiveness of hair removal.
Deep laser hair removal
At the moment, there are several types of salon epilation:
- photoepilation- thermal energy acting on the hair follicle;
- elos epilation - combines several types at once (electric, light and laser epilation) and is considered one of the most effective;
- laser- when the hair is exposed to laser radiation;
- Qool hair removal is a type of non-contact laser hair removal, when the skin does not experience any negative effects, everything is directed exclusively to the hairs.
Each of the types presented has its own advantages and disadvantages. If one perfectly removes hard and dark hairs, then the other on them will be absolutely useless, but it will perfectly remove light and thin hairs. However, there are also universal types, for example, elos hair removal. This technique works well with all types of hair and skin.
But just before you go for deep bikini epilation, you should consult with your doctor, letting him know which laser you want to go to. Each of them has a number of its own contraindications, which can become a clear obstacle. Otherwise, you may end up with a number of health problems that you never thought about before.
