Waxing is the longest-lasting temporary hair removal technique available. When wax is warm, it enters the follicle, allowing the hair to be pulled out from the root. Hair grows back in 3 to 6 weeks. The disadvantage to waxing is that it can be painful for those with sensitive skin. And hair must grow back by half inch before waxing again (up to six weeks).

The best antidote to the pain of waxing is to try to relax. According to many beauty practitioners, when a client is tense, the follicle closes and the wax doesn't reach the root of the hair. Immediately after waxing, apply gentle pressure to the area with your hands; icing the area also can help ease the pain. The more often you get a wax treatment, the more accustomed you'll grow to the experience.

A Brazilian wax removes the hair from the entire pubic region. Many women request a Brazilian because it gives a clean, close wax and the freedom to wear even the most revealing swimwear and lingerie.

First the hair is snipped with a trimmer so the wax can reach the follicles. A traditional Brazilian includes the labia and entire pubic area. If there are stray hairs after waxing, the technician may also tweeze the area. The key to allowing wax to penetrate into the follicles is to relax. And many women claim the treatment is not nearly as painful as it sounds.

If you're willing to let your hair grow out to half inch between each visits, a hot wax treatment is the most effective way to remove hair on the legs and thighs. It's also a great way to exfoliate the area -- especially in cold weather, when there's a buildup of dead, dry skin.
 

Ingrown Hair Tips

A strand of hair is an outgrowth of dead cells and the protein keratin that grows up from the hair follicle. Each hair shaft grows about 1/4 inch per month, depending on what stage of growth -- active or resting -- the hair is in. Genetics determine how many hair follicles we have since no new follicles are formed after birth. A woman's legs and arms contain an average of 13,500 hair follicles.

Ingrown hairs -- an annoying consequence of shaving and waxing -- when there's a buildup of dead, dry skin resulting in pore blockage, when a hair curls into the skin and grows in the wrong direction, resulting in a red, irritated bump that can become infected. Though relaxing the muscles during shaving and waxing is said to help prevent ingrown hairs, they can still happen. Some people recommend plucking the hair using sharp-pointed tweezers and then cleaning the area with peroxide; others say it's best to leave ingrown hairs alone to heal themselves.

To help avoid ingrown hairs, start to apply exfoliating scrub during a daily shower after 24 hours waxing, rub your skin vigorously with a towel or exfoliating sponge every time you bathe, finally apply suitable amount moisturizer to void dry and feel itchy. Generally speaking, you should exfoliate any area with containing ingrown hairs daily. This mainly helps to remove pore blockage. You will get less in-growths and your hair will grow back with ease. Also, try going for steam baths regularly, scrub them gently with sponge. Continue waxing regularly. Your hair growth will diminish.
