Top Body Hair Removal Devices

Hair removal is a sensitive topic. Women from ages have subjected themselves to various hair removal methods to get that flawless ‘hairless’ skin. Since almost half the percentage of womenfolk follow the beauty routine to appease societal standards, there is no doubt that hair removal remains one of the debated topics online. Many women are coming forward embracing their body hair, paving the way towards a society that is more accepting of the natural phenomenon. 

Wax Them Away

Waxing has always been the most popular in hair removal regimes. Even though they are painful, costly and tedious, it ranks high as the most common hair removal method today. Many prefer waxing because it pulls away the hair from its roots, giving the skin a smoother appearance. Most often, people prefer to have waxing done by experienced hands, especially for sensitive areas. But alternatively, you can perform them yourself at home. If you are afraid of the hot wax burning you, you can also shift to cold wax strips that, as the name suggests, do not require you to apply hot wax onto your skin. But for the pain…. you have to bear it!

Pros: You can wax anywhere you wish to! The hair removal procedure gives immediate results along with smooth, glowing skin and can remove hair from your limbs to the most sensitive areas like the face and bikini line.

Cons: It is painful!! The pulling makes the skin highly sensitive, with the possiblity of developing redness and ingrown hairs. Generally, the effect lasts for about a month, but the hair might come back as fast as a week for people with faster hair growth. You must wait for the hair to be long enough before the next waxing session.

Go The Sugar Way!

Sugaring is the method that ancient Egyptians used to get hairless skin. Sugaring uses a sugar mixture to be applied onto the skin, which later is pulled off along with body hair. Similar to waxing, sugaring pulls out hair from the roots, hence, delaying the regrowth time. Though the time for regrowth and before successive procedures remains the same as waxing, sugaring tends to be slightly softer on the skin. It is essential to prep your skin before the appointment to help you have a better experience.

Pros: It can be to remove hair from even sensitive areas. However, you must wait for the hairs to be long enough to be pulled by the mixture. The sugaring helps to exfoliate the skin, helping you get smoother and glowing skin. There are a lot fewer chances of ingrown hairs and redness as compared to waxing.

Cons: The pain depends on the tolerance levels. The sugar mixture slowly tugs to pull out the hair from the roots. Hence, it does involve some pain, but it is less than in waxing. 

Epilator 

Epilating is another way to pull the hair from the roots, but the process is akin to using razors. It is like using the tweezers to pull the hair off, but mechanically!

The device goes along the skin, which goes against the direction of hair growth. The rotating blades grab and pull the hair as it moves along. Multiple epilators are available in the market, with cordless ones in the higher price bracket than the corded ones. 

Pros: You don’t have to wait for the hairs to grow to a certain length before another session. The machine removes the fine hairs as effectively as the long ones. It is a lot more economical option than waxing, as a one-time investment lasts years. You can use them anywhere, and they are easily portable.

Cons: The pain is similar to waxing as the hair pulls out. If you are not careful enough, the device may pull your skin along with the hairs. Although, you should not use this device on your face.
