Waxing

Waxing is a traditional method of getting unwanted hair removed from different body parts. There is evidence that it originated in Egypt in the early 3000 BC. Women of all ages like to get waxing done in salons and spas, including legs, arms, under arms, sideburns, and face etc. Waxing is a quick, easy, convenient and affordable hair removal technique. There are different types of wax being applied for hair removals such as warm soft wax or warm hard wax.

Usually, waxing is considered a painful skin treatment. The pain gradually reduces when you are habitual to it in the coming years. After waxing, a cold shower is suggested to reduce irritation and sensitivity. As part of post-waxing skincare, you should wear loose-fitting clothes to avoid friction, avoid perfumed cosmetics (deodorants, lotions, etc.), apply cool pads and avoid excessive activities for at least 24 hours. Aloe vera gel is a great soothing agent for any case of inflammation (avoid in case you have an allergy).
