Waxing 

Waxing

is basically a method of semi-permanent hair removal which eradicates the hair from the root cause. New hairs will not grow again in the previously waxed area for 2-8 weeks. Most likely any area of the body can be waxed, including face, eyebrows, bikini area, legs, arms, back, feet and abdomen. There are many types of waxing which are suitable for removing unwanted hair. If waxing is carried out regularly for many years, permanent reduction of hair can be achieved. 

Waxing is achieved by spreading a combination of wax thinly over the skin. A paper strip or cloth is then pressed on the top and ripped off with a rapid movement against the hair growth direction. This removes the wax including the hair. Another method which is widely used is hard wax. In this method, the wax is applied a bit thickly and with no cloth or paper strips. The wax after hardens when it cools, thus permitting the easy removal by a therapist without the help of clothes. This waxing method is very helpful to people who have sensitive skin. 

Before any hair removal treatment ensure that you do not bath or shower an hour or so prior to the service. The extra content of water on the surface of the skin in addition to the emulsifying effects of warm water along with soaps may offer the skin irritation or extra sensitivity.
