Should the bikini line be free of unsightly, coarse black curls? Or should a woman jump on the bandwagon and go for the much-hyped Brazilian wax? These days, there is much controversy surrounding the subject of pubic hair. If the decision to remove pubic hair is made, just how much should actually be removed? Is a trim sufficient? In particular, the buzz is mostly about whether the hair in this very private area should or should not be removed.
It seems that waxing is by far the pubic hair removal treatment method of choice for most. Waxing is inexpensive, and in most cases, is only temporarily uncomfortable, mostly during the time of the actual procedure. When it’s over, the skin in the pubic area is soft and stubble-free.
Waxing is not a permanent hair removal treatment. By going with this process, the hairs are simply pulled out of the hair shafts and in a few weeks, the hair will grow back, which means that the waxing process will have to be repeated for as long as the effect is fitting. However, some people claim that the hair that does grow back does diminish over time and that these hairs grow back with a different texture: they’re finer and not as course as they once were. Since it is possible that repeated plucking of the hairs out of their shafts may ultimately damage the actual hair follicle, the point from which the hair grows, future hair growth can be affected.
Another benefit of waxing is that it enables a person to better control the location of the pubic area that is to be hair-free. It’s a quick process, and one that a person can do on his or her own, if desired. However, there are plenty of people who will perform this hair removal technique for you, if you’re willing to share this very personal encounter! Many waxing products are available, but be sure you read the label before purchasing. Ultimately, you want a waxing product that is safe to use in this area.
Sugaring is a technique that is similar to waxing. Here, instead of using wax, which apparently can be messy and difficult to clean up, a sugar-based organic mixture is used instead which is usually mixed with honey and lemon, the sugary paste concept has been around for centuries, and it is applied to the skin, and as it hardens, it traps the pubic hairs. The wait now is for the paste to get hardened and then, it is pulled very quickly from the skin, removing the hair as it goes.
Try to avoid using hair removed creams. Even the best hair removal creams may have strong chemicals in a concoction that depletes the hair from the roots, and can be too harsh for your sensitive pubic region. The regular hair removal creams are exclusive for the body and legs, and should never be used on pubic hair, due to a high risk of allergies and itching. Frequent use of these creams or leaving the cream for a longer duration can cause rashes, discharge from private part and sometimes even chemical burns. Waxing or sugaring generally won’t cause skin irritation like shaving and chemical-based depilatories often do. These methods are far less expensive than laser treatments and electrolysis.
