Does Shaving Your Bikini Lines Drive You Bonkers?

Considering the daring styles of swimwear many people, both male and female, are wearing today, no doubt keeping bikini lines in check is an important issue.

Even for those of us who don’t wear the more daring styles, making sure pubic hairs are not public hairs is a concern when getting ready for the pool or beach.

It’s not a simple matter of tucking your pubic hairs inside the legs of your suit, because they’re bound to escape. So it becomes a question of how best to remove the hairs at the bikini lines all together.

While many people may elect to use a depilatory lotion/cream or do a bikini wax at home or at a salon, shaving bikini lines is still the method most often used.

Now you may be thinking that the reason some people choose depilatories or waxing over shaving their bikini lines is because these alternative methods to shaving don’t irritate this sensitive skin. Truth is – That’s not the truth. At least not for most people.

If you speak with people who use a depilatory, (and they’re honest), they’ll tell you:

1) They’re messy

2) They smell pretty bad

3) They’re inconvenient – Because you have to wait for them to work, you have to be somewhere to be able to wash them off and they don’t always completely work, leaving you with patches of hair

And, most importantly –

4) The harsh chemicals more often than not leave your skin looking red and feeling raw, as if it’s just been burned, which basically it has …

And if you speak with people who choose waxing, (and they’re honest), they’ll tell you:

1) It’s messy

2) It smells pretty bad

3) It’s inconvenient – Because you have to wait for it to work, you have to be somewhere to be able to wash off the residue, it doesn’t always completely work with the first application so you have to do it again, and oh yes – IT HURTS! Even if you have it done at a salon, all of the above applies

And, most importantly –

4) The harsh chemicals more often than not leave your skin looking red and feeling raw, as if every hair has just been yanked out, which basically they have …

So – We’re back to shaving bikini lines.

The bad news is that most people who are shaving their bikini lines basically just grab a wet razor and have at it. So it’s no wonder that their skin looks red and feels raw, as if it’s just been scraped, which basically it has …

And even worse – Because bikini lines are areas that maintain a good deal of moisture and receive a great deal of friction, ingrown hairs become a major problem.

The good news is, anyone can learn that there’s a right way of shaving pubic hairs from the bikini lines and, perhaps even more important, that there is a much better tool than a wet razor for shaving this sensitive area.

Shaving your bikini lines doesn’t have to drive you bonkers!

All you need to do now is your own research about how to safely shave your bikini lines along with using a shaving device that’s better designed for bikini lines.

Pubic Hair Shave Methods

When it comes to hair removal for men or women, both must master the methods of shaving that wont damage skin or cause rashes or irritation as hair grows back. Depending on the thickness and coarseness of hair, most women who like to shave their pubic hair area, need to do so at least once a week. This much shaving can make for uncomfortable and just plain ugly breakouts if some simple steps or rules are not followed.

Tools for A Good Pubic Hair Shave

To get a clean shave and one that will last, start with the right razor. One that is too dull will grab delicate skin and cause nicks and cuts. One that does not pivot or move at all makes it difficult to get into creases as the top of the leg. Using a razor that is intended specifically for shaving pubic hair or for womens shaving in general will help.

Next make sure you use a moisturizing shaving crme or gel. This can be found in any cosmetic isle of any store. The foams or gels moisturize and also protect skin. Soap will not provide enough protection against the brutal razor.

Taking a Stance

How you stand to get a good pubic hair shave matters. Make sure your leg is up and spread enough to flatten the area at the top of the leg as much as possible. This makes it easier for the razor to go flat against the skin and reduces the risk of cuts. It also allows for a closer shave.

The Method

The method of shaving is important to reduce the chance of breakouts. Most people shave upward against the direction the hair grows because it feels a bit smoother when running the hand up against the hair growth. In reality they can get just as close a shave running the razor in a downward direction, with the growth of the hair. This is true for a mans face or for the pubic hair shave.

How Far to Go

How much hair is removed is a personal preference. Some women wearing the average swimsuit feel they only want and need to remove the edges of the pubic hair region. Others like to go as far as the Brazilian bikini wax and remove all but a small strip of hair. Whatever level of hair removal you decide upon, it is best to stick with a razors width. This allows for even long strokes and for the razor to go flat against the skin. Then if you want to remove more hair, go with another razors width worth.

Shaving Vs. Other Hair Removal Methods

A pubic hair shave has its advantages and disadvantages. It is first of all inexpensive and easy. It can be done quickly in the shower in the time it takes your hair conditioner to do its job. However, for those with the excessive hair growth called hirsutism or who want permanent hair removal there are longer lasting methods.

Waxing or sugaring offer longer lasting hair removal than shaving. They can be a little uncomfortable as hair is pulled from the root. Epilators also pull hair from the root, but also provide an electrical charge that kills the root. The process may need to be repeated a few times, but then the hair removal is permanent.

With any method of hair removal it is a good idea to wait 12-24 hours before tanning. Suntan creme and oils can irritate freshly shaved skin.

Pubic hair shaving can be a part of any womans health care or beauty routine and not take up too much time or money. Taking care of shaved skin is as important as any other part of a beauty or fitness routine.

Hair Removal by Waxing – Hot and Cold Waxes

Waxing is an effective method of removing large amounts of hair at one time. With hot waxing, a thin layer of heated wax is applied to the skin in the direction of the hair growth. The hair becomes embedded in the wax as it cools and hardens. The wax is then pulled off quickly in the opposite direction of the hair growth, taking the uprooted hair with it. Cold waxes work similarly. Strips precoated with wax are pressed on the skin in the direction of the hair growth and pulled off in the opposite direction. The strips come in different sizes for use on the eyebrows, upper lip, chin, and bikini area.

Waxing is a temporary method of hair removal which removes the hair at the root. New hairs do not grow back in the waxed area for three to eight weeks. Almost any area of the body can be waxed, including eyebrows, face, bikini area, legs, arms, back, abdomen and feet’. But don’t be fooled into thinking that waxing is for women only. Today’s fashion trends have men waxing their bodies for cosmetic reasons, and many athletes such as bodybuilders and swimmers have been waxing for years.

The concept of waxing to remove bodily hair can be traced all the way back to ancient Egypt where the wives of Royalty and the well-to-do looked at hair removal as a way to remain young and forever beautiful. That concept continued throughout the world with the Greeks and Turks as well.

Most waxes are comprised of some proportional mixture of paraffin or beeswax, natural oils or fats, and a specially designed resin to help the wax adhere to the skin. Some brands of wax add Vitamin E or other supplements. If you think that you might want to try waxing, the first step, whether you are a male or female, is to decide if you want to use the ‘hot’ or ‘cold’ wax technique.

The hot wax method involves heating the wax to a comfortable temperature. A thin layer of wax is spread onto the area to be treated in the direction of the hair growth. Once the wax is cooled it is quickly torn off, in the opposite direction of the hair growth, and the hair is removed with it. With the cold wax process, strips of cloth are pre-coated with wax. You apply the strips to the area to be treated, rub the strips in the direction of hair growth, and then pull the strips off quickly in the opposite direction. Although hot waxing techniques are a bit more messy than cold wax ones, many people find that the hot wax gives better results.

Post Waxing Skin Treatment

You can apply a non-perfumed moisturizer to the treated area if you want to. Moisturizers that are fortified with Vitamin B and/or Aloe vera are also good. Avoid the following activities for at least 24 hours after waxing:

- Swimming

- Using a Spa or Hot Tub

- Sunbathing

- Applying perfume, aftershave or deodorant to the treated area

Always check to make sure that the hot wax is below scalding or burning temperature before applying. People with diabetes should consult a doctor before waxing. Never wax over sunburned skin or peeling skin, lesions or infections, moles, warts, skin abrasions, rashes, or varicose veins. Never wax the eyelashes, nose or ear hairs, nipple hair, or hair which is growing directly on the genitals (bikini area is okay). Waxing is a great solution for the temporary removal of unwanted hair if you’re tough enough to stand a little pain. Some hair removal experts recommend professional waxing for the best results.

Hair Removal: The Good News

If you’re 1 of the millions of people who have hair growing where you don’t want it, today’s good news is, you have a wide range of effective hair removal options available to you.

Reasons For Hair Removal

People’s reasons for wanting hair removed run the gamut from medical necessity to “just because I feel like it.” Many women include hair removal as part of their normal cosmetic routine. They shave their legs and underarms, pluck their eyebrows, and have pubic hair trimmed or removed to accommodate today’s fashions.

Most men shave their facial hair, and men sometimes shave their body hair for cosmetic purposes, as well. To enhance their performance, their appearance, or both, many athletes — particularly swimmers and body builders — will undergo hair removal procedures.

Some people with hair growth disorders like hypertrichosis or hirsutism use hair removal procedures for medical reasons.

Temporary Or Permanent Removal

Hair removal procedures can be separated into 2 categories: temporary and permanent.

Temporary techniques work only for short periods of time, and are subject to the body’s normal hair growth cycle. They include shaving, plucking, waxing, and a wide selection of creams. Most people use temporary hair removal procedures at home, but they can also be obtained in a spa or salon.

Permanent Hair Removal Techniques

The “Permanent” procedures outlined below seek to remove unwanted hair in such a way that it returns never or, at worst, over a long time period. These hair removal methods are normally performed by licensed hair removal specialists.

Electrolysis

With electrolysis each hair follicle is treated individually. A licensed specialist injects a needle into the hair follicle and induces an electric charge that destroys the follicle’s ability to produce hair. This process can take months, depending upon the size of the area being treated. This is a somewhat painful process, and side effects can include scarring and infection. Costs for electrolysis can run as high as $3,000 for the pubic area or legs.

Laser

The laser hair removal process uses a small laser beam to destroy the hair follicles. This is a relatively painless method that works best on people with light-colored skin and dark hair. It is not recommended for anyone who is deeply tanned. It costs about $1,000 for removal of facial hair, and anywhere from $2,000 to $3,000 for removal of hair from the legs and pubic area. Laser hair removal is an FDA-approved process, to be performed only by a licensed and trained professional.

Photo Epilation/Pulsed Laser

This FDA-approved procedure uses a pulsed light beam to destroy the hair follicles. Photo Epilation/Pulsed Laser is especially effective for removing hair from sensitive areas, such as the underarms and the bikini area. Unlike laser hair removal, this method has no restrictions regarding hair color, skin color, or tanning. Depending on the area of the body to be treated, costs can run from $500 to $2,000 and up.

Removal of unwanted hair, for any reason whatsoever, is easier and more available today than ever before.

Removing Unwanted Body Hair Permanently & Safely

Both males and females have unwanted hairs in their body. Everybody wishes to be fresh and energetic. It can be done in a many number of ways according the level of hairs in the body. It is found that around 80% of the women and around 50% of the men are going for hair removal in some form or the other. Facial hair removal is more popular among men and women.

Hair removal in the hands, legs, arms, underarms, bikini area, face, and eyebrows are commonly practiced these days. Sports persons go for hair removal since it will cut down the wind resistance and improve their competitive speeds. There is a report saying that hair removal salons are getting more and more men customers for removing hair.

Different devices are used for hair removal in different parts of the body. Waxing, sugaring, and electrolysis are the most preferred methods for permanent body hair removal. Laser treatments are also used for permanent body hair removal. Waxing is a method of hair removal in which wax is applied over the hairs and then a cotton strip is rubbed on the wax in the direction of the hair growth.

Waxing and sugaring are done for male body hair removal. Waxing removes the hairs from the roots and hence the regrowth of hairs in the removed area takes between 6 to 8 weeks. After hair removal through waxing even if the hair grows it is thinner and is sparser in the area. There are not many hairs in that area. Upon further hair removal the hair may go off permanently. Usage of a hair growth inhibitor after male body hair removal through waxing is usually done to reduce the growth of hairs in that area.

Then the cotton strip is removed in the opposite direction of the hair growth for permanent body hair removal. Sugaring is also a method that is used for hair removal permanently. The difference is the sugar paste instead of wax for removal. Whether a person is using waxing or sugaring he is advised to use a hair growth inhibitor after the removal of hairs to prevent hair growth or to slow down the growth of hairs.

Most of the sports persons who are involved in the sports like swimming and cycling opt for permanent body hair removal, since permanent body hair removal would improve their speeds by reducing the air friction. There are many devices that are used for permanent body hair removal. Each device comes with its own functionality and ease of use with a price tag that is affordable.

Electrolysis and Laser treatments remove the hairs permanently from the skin. In these methods the hair follicle is destroyed so that the hair does not grow again. Electrolysis method uses needles to supply electric current to the hair follicles. This electric current creates some chemical changes or generates heat to destroy the hair follicles. In Laser treatment the laser beams are directed towards the hair follicles to destroy it. Laser treatments are costly when compared to other methods of hair removal.

How Can Waxing Rid You Of Unsightly Body Hair?

Are you using waxing as a hair removal technique? If not, then you should consider it. The process of waxing is very old and one that has been used in one way or another for thousands of years (dating back to ancient Egypt even) and can work very well for you today. What is it? It is the removal of hair from the root through a process of applying a wax and then quickly removing it. And, yes, waxing does hurt a bit but it is only temporary and can give you hair free results for up to six to eight weeks. All in all, it can be well worth it.

Where To Wax?

Waxing can safely be done throughout the body. Individuals use it for their legs, eyebrows, bikini areas and much larger hairs such as their chest, stomach and back. You can have it done so that you can shave time off of your swimming competition or to help you to just look the way that you enjoy looking.

What Is It?

Whats in the wax? The mixture that you will use is a combination of paraffin or beeswax and natural oils. These products are chosen since they work well with the body and stick to the skin. There are two types, cold and hot waxing. Some have supplements in them to help improve the skins feel and texture.

Hot Waxing: In this method of waxing, a hot but comfortable temperature is used for the wax. It is spread onto the area in the direction of the hair growth. When the wax cools, it is torn off quickly in the opposite direction, pulling the hair out with it. Usually, this gives the best results in waxing.

Cold Waxing: In this method of waxing, the strips of cloth are coated with the wax and them applied to the skin. The strips are rubbed in the direction of the hair growth and then ripped off in the opposite direction.

After you wax your skin, you can use a treatment of a non perfumed moisturizer. This will help to restore the feel of the skin by adding Vitamin B and Aloe Vera to it. Whatever you do, you do not want to go swimming, use a spa or hot tub, tan, or apply perfume, deodorant or other chemicals to the area that was just waxed as these can cause infections and pain.

It is important that you carefully look at your skin prior to using any type of waxing. You should not use in areas where there are open sores, infection, moles, warts or other skin irritations. You should never attempt to wax eyelashes, ear hair, nose hair or nipple hair. And, you should make sure that you use the appropriate combination of wax for specific areas such as pubic hair. Make sure to test the temperature of the wax so that you do not get burned too.

Waxing has been around for centuries because it is an effective way to remove hair. There are not normally side effects besides a little bit of pain and redness. And, you can do it at home or in a salon. Waxing is an effective method to remove unwanted hair from virtually every area of your body.

A Woman’s Guide To Waxing Unwanted Hair

It’s tough to be beautiful. There’s the curling, the scrubbing, the coloring, the endless work, toil and sweat. It can also be painful. What woman hasn’t suffered from a too-hot curling iron or too-sharp razor? But at the top of the list we find waxing. An essential task, to be sure, but also dicey. You want to make sure it’s done right, quickly and will be effective with a minimum of pain.

Waxing is a relatively simply process, really. Think “wax on, wax off”, and you’ll likely get the idea. Hot wax is applied to the area that needs hair removal, then quickly pulled off and unwanted hairs go with the wax. It can be fairly painful, but the pain is quick and the wax process, fortunately, doesn’t need to be repeated very often.

Herewith are various types of waxes, from a lesser “ouch” factor to a mighty “ouch”!

* Eyebrow (ouch factor of 2) – Eyebrow waxing is a type of waxing you can do yourself at home, though it’s never a bad idea to consult a professional. If you are going to wax your eyebrows yourself, you should always wax from below the eyebrow, not above. Take very little hair off at a time, and be careful of the hot wax being so close to your face. Because the skin above the eye is so sensitive, it’s really recommended you consult a professional for this task.

* Full Face (ouch factor 2) – This involves removing the facial hair you might have around the mouth, cheeks, jaw and chin. You can do this yourself, perhaps even make the wax yourself, but again, experts recommend using a professional since the facial skin is so delicate.

* Legs (ouch factor 3-4) – This is probably the method of waxing most women are familiar with. In the summer, many women choose leg waxing as the preferred method for hair removal since it is generally considered superior to shaving and saves time in those busy summer months – a good leg wax can last as long as 8 weeks.

* Bikini (ouch factor 8-10+) – The big daddy of waxing, the various types of bikini waxes are not for the faint of heart. They are for women who want clean, cool nether regions for summer, and aren’t too modest, since they should only be done by a trained and experienced professional. There are a few different types:

* Bikini – The basic bikini wax involves removing the pubic hair around the bikini panty line. This is delicate territory, so it’s recommended you take an ibuprofen an hour or so before getting it done. But since there are more involved bikini waxes, we’ll give this one an 8 on the pain scale.

* Full bikini – This is also known as a Brazilian bikini wax and it’s the latest, hottest thing in waxes. Seven Brazilian sisters brought this wax to the United States and in a short period of time, this type of wax has overtaken any other bikini wax. In short, it’s a full bikini wax, where only the pubic hair just around the labia is left. Otherwise, you’re bald as an eagle, which might serve you if you wear a thong in the summer or just want to change your life, which is allegedly what Brazilian wax did for Gwyneth Paltrow. This is a full 10 on the pain scale, but many women claim it’s the bomb.

Tips To Lasting Laser Hair Removal

Men and women alike are concerned with hair! Its not just the hair on their heads, but the unwanted hair they are constantly battling. If you are tired of plucking, tweezing, sugaring, shaving, or waxing, then maybe its time to look into Lazer hair removal.

Lazer hair removal is done in an outpatient type setting and even in some high-end salons. It requires the expertise and licensing of a trained technician because it works with Lazer light.
Lazer light is directed at the unwanted hair. The instrument is focused on the base of the hair at skin level so that it can penetrate beneath the skin and down into the root. The objective is to deaden the root so the hair falls out and cant grow back.

In general removing hair with Lazer light is painless and safe. There can be some redness and a bit of sensitivity for a short time following a treatment. The procedure takes about 20-30 minutes per session, and in that time large areas of skin can be covered. Lazer treatments are also precise enough for shaping eyebrows and bikini lines as well as removing thick back or leg hair characteristic of hirsutism. Following a treatment the client can return to normal activities including work. A session is easily completed during a work lunch hour.

Lazer Versus Other Methods

With Lazer treatments the hair removal is permanent. It may take more than one treatment to accomplish this, but after just a few sessions, hair will no longer grow in the treated area.

Waxing and sugaring, where hair is removed by a sticky substance from the root, is probably the next longest lasting hair removal beauty routine. These treatments can last 6-8 weeks, but are generally not permanent. Just like with plucking, or using epilators, any procedure that removes hair from the root, does have the possibility of achieving permanent hair removal. However, only Lazer treatments kill the hair follicle itself.

Skin that has been waxed or treated hair removal crmes need to rest before exposing it to the sun. So if you plan on tanning, you should put off working on your suntan until 24 hours after you have exposed skin to such treatments.

Maintaining Healthy Skin

Skin that has been exposed to Lazer light does not dry out from the procedure. Any redness goes away quickly and you are left with hair-free smooth skin.

To get the most out of any skin treatment it is important to keep skin well moisturized. This includes from the inside out. Drinking 6-8 glasses of water a day, for example, can hydrate your skin from the inside, making your moisturizing crme work even better on the outside.

Cosmetic treatments are as much a part of a health care and wellness routine as your fitness program. You spend time in the gym toning your body, so you shouldn’t skimp on your skin. Removing hair with professional Lazer hair removal is an indulgence, sure, but you know you’re worth it!

Laser Hair Removal a.k.a. Getting Rid Of Unwanted Hair

You can shave, pluck, wax, bleach or depilate, but the one inherent problem with unwanted hair is that is always grows back.

Laser Hair Removal, seems to be one of the only permanent solutions to removing hair in places youd rather be without.

Laser Hair Removal has been performed since the mid 90s or so. Even thought this procedure is fairly new, more efficient techniques are still being developed by researchers. Men and women the world over have found relief from unwanted hair via Laser Hair Removal. Women prefer to be sans hair in facial areas, the legs, arms, underarms and the bikini area. While men have increasingly found laser hair removal beneficial for excessive hair on the chest, shoulders and back (no more excuses for hairy backs).

Laser Hair Removal has many advantages over waxing and electrolysis, but none are as more comforting than the reduced pain factors. If you have thinker skin than you may bypass the topical anesthetic, but if you prefer not to feel any discomfort what so ever, you simply need to apply the miracle cream one hour before your Laser Hair Removal treatment and you can say ciao to pain!

Laser Hair Removal machines are well adapted to treating large surface areas, making laser treatment an excellent and more permanent alternative to conventional removal methods.

In essence, the Laser Hair Removal machines energy is absorbed by the pigment that gives hair its color. Red and near-infrared laser light propelled by the machine is strongly absorbed by brown or black hair, while red and blond hair absorbs very little infrared light. The energy of the absorbed laser light is released into the hair follicle, and therefore damaging or destroying the target tissue in the follicle. Its crucial that the correct laser intensity be used for hair removal. If the intensity is too strong, the laser beam will burn your skin. You should request a patch test to see how your skin reacts to the laser before going through a full removal.

Laser Hair Removal is ideal for almost all skin coloring. That said, darker complexions should note that the a higher level of pigmented skin tends to absorb more of the red to infrared laser wavelengths, while fair skin absorbs less of these laser wavelengths. Hence, the chances of darker complexion of burning and scaring are MUCH greater. You must discuss this serious side effect with your medical spa expert or your dermatologist.

Freedom from unwanted hair is very possible thanks to Laser Hair Removal methods. That said, Laser Hair Removal is a highly effective way of reducing hair, but like another other method its not 100 percent effective in permanently removing all unwanted hair. Some body parts such as the bikini area will require yearly Laser Hair Removal treatments to continuously reduce the hair mass and thin out hair re-growth.
