Researchers have proven that women in sexy lingerie feel more confident. Let us continue the chain of thoughts and note that the fair sex with a smooth bikini area feel even more seductive - an epilator for intimate areas will help them with this. What is its difference from the classic counterpart, you will find out right now.

Peculiarities

Epilation is not always a pleasant and even uncomfortable process, but it is it that allows you to achieve the effect of smooth skin without excess vegetation. Depilation of the intimate area (shaving or using a cream that removes hairs) gets rid of hairs for a couple of days, and they continue to grow at a fast pace. The essence of epilation is to remove the hair follicle and disrupt the structure of the follicle, which is why the hairs grow more slowly after the procedure. An additional plus is that they are then much thinner.

The epilator for the intimate area allows you to get rid of unwanted vegetation for a period of 2 to 4 weeks (depending on the rate of natural hair growth and their structure). It has a number of features. It is worth talking about the advantages of home hair removal using a special machine:

  1. Ease of use. Doing hair removal on your own is more pleasant than trusting your body to a master (if she is not your best friend).
  2. The qualitative result is stored for 2-4 weeks.
  3. The growth of hairs slows down, their quality noticeably “spoils” - this is “on hand” for women.
  4. Allows you to remove hair in the intimate area using the deep bikini or classic technique. The essence of the first is complete smoothness, the second is hair removal along the panty line.
  5. It saves money and time - you don’t have to visit an expensive salon, it’s enough to buy a typewriter and use it at home - for a couple of years (and even more).

Now a few words about the cons of the device:

  1. Painful process. The epilation procedure (especially the intimate zone) is another “pleasure” that will have to be endured. If you do not need such torment, you will need to look for ways to facilitate the process - anesthetic gels, ointments, cooling pads or pouches.
  2. Gives irritation - or a normal skin reaction to hair removal along with the bulb. Irritation appears in 99% of cases, it goes away on its own or forces a woman to use "heavy artillery" - all the same gels, ointments and creams with a soothing composition.
  3. The appearance of ingrown hairs. Alas, this problem can appear from any type of hair removal - epilator, wax or sugar. Ingrown hairs appear due to a violation of the texture of the hair follicle, which leads to abnormal hair growth - it literally begins to grow inside the skin. The best way to get rid of the problem is to prevent it and properly prepare the skin for the epilation process, and provide quality care after.

Hair removal with an epilator allows you to make the intimate area smooth and maintain this effect for four weeks.

Epilation requires preparation and further skin care in order to preserve its beauty and smoothness, to make the procedure safe and relatively pleasant. This home care routine is incredibly popular with women and men (despite their soreness) who are puzzled by their appearance.

If a few years ago the intimate area was treated with a classic epilator, then today advanced users choose a special machine with a gentle nozzle (usually the number of tweezers or discs in it is less) and a narrower head - to work out the most sensitive areas. These are, for example, the labia, the intergluteal zone. An epilator for the intimate area can be a nozzle for a classic machine or produced separately, have a trimmer attachment (for cutting long hairs) or do without it.

Female

Models are distinguished by their laconic design and pink colors in the design. Almost all well-known models and brands of epilators are created for women - Braun, Philips, Rowenta and the rest.

Male

Men's hair is more rigid. They require a special machine. Among the manufacturers of epilators for men, it is worth noting the German brand beurer. The representatives of the stronger sex will suit the classic models of epilators with a replaceable head for shaving and cutting hair - for example, Philips "Satin Ice Total Care Hp 6433/PB". Men can safely use any "female" epilator with a special nozzle for sensitive areas (armpits and bikini), air cooling or vibration. It is recommended to choose models of time-tested brands.

How it works?

epilator happens disk or tweezers, the essence of his work does not change from this: under the influence of electricity, discs or tweezers capture the hairs and remove them along with the hair follicle. If we talk about disc models, it can be noted that the discs expand and contract, rotate and capture the visible part of the hair - from 0.5 mm or more. The principle of operation of tweezers is identical - the tweezers expand and narrow.

All modern models of electric epilators have two or three rotation speeds. The first option is suitable for working on sensitive areas of the body or working with a large number of hair follicles, the second and third (fast) ones are for less sensitive areas of the body (legs, arms). Usually the device is powered by the mains, there are mobile battery-powered models. There are also devices that can work this way and that.

Dry epilators are used for dry areas of the body. Modern models for aqua epilation are used in the shower - this relieves pain.

Can I shave my bikini area with an epilator?

The epilator is suitable for removing hair from any part of the body (except for the face), so you can - and even need to shave the bikini area with it. If we talk about the classic model with a wide head, then it is ideal for working out legs and arms, as it works immediately with a large area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe body and removes hairs more effectively. For sensitive areas, the narrow nozzle is the best choice. It will allow you to get close to hard-to-reach places and work out a deep bikini, armpits well.

The narrow head of the epilator is also suitable for intimate areas because the number of tweezers or discs in it is less, which means that pain from the procedure is reduced.At the same time, the effectiveness of hair removal does not decrease - the epilator works out sensitive areas of the body that are smaller in area and width, does not let hair through and does not force a woman to look for the optimal position in order to get close to a particular area.

How to use at home?

The skills of working with the epilator appear gradually - you learn to select the optimal speed for different parts of the intimate area, looking for the correct angle of inclination and the degree of pressure. There are several rules for using the device that you should be aware of:

  • Hair length - 1-3 mm. This is exactly how much is needed for high-quality and less painful epilation of the intimate area (the recommended length of hair on the legs is half a centimeter).
  • Steam your skin. Be sure to use a scrub or peel before epilating. They will make the surface of the skin smooth, and it will be easier for the tweezers (or discs) to grab the hair and remove it along with the bulb.Steamed after a shower or bath, the dermis gives off hair better, it is less sensitive to pain - thanks to open pores.
  • Against hair growth. Guide the epilator head in this way, as this technique allows the tweezers (or discs) to grab the hairs.
  • Don't press on the head. Do not try too hard when working with the device - its head should touch the skin, and not dig into it. Otherwise (if there is strong pressure on the epilator), you can damage the surface of the skin - hook it with tweezers or discs.
  • Speed. "Play" with the speed of rotation of the disks, start with the lowest (1) and switch to 2 or 3 in the least sensitive areas - on the pubis, for example.
  • Dry skin. The classic epilator works only with dry skin (with the exception of models with the ability to work in the shower). If the skin involuntarily sweats during epilation, dust it with talc or baby powder.

Using the epilator correctly is to reduce pain during the procedure, the risk of severe irritation (including ingrown hairs) and increase the effect (to achieve smoothness for 2-4 weeks).

You can epilate the most sensitive area on the body in two ways - classical (along the line of panties) or deep (fully) bikini.

  1. The optimal length of hairs for shaving with an epilator - 2-3 mm, no more. If they are too long, pain cannot be avoided. It is worth using a trimmer before using an epilator to create the ideal hair length and improve the quality of the procedure as a whole.
  2. Use cooling pads or a special mitt. Often epilators are equipped with additional accessories to dull the pain. Cold air enters through a special nozzle, and epilation does not seem so painful.A mitten (pre-chilled in the freezer) is applied to the skin in advance, it lasts 1-3 minutes. The skin temporarily loses its sensitivity, and the pain is no longer so strong.

How to make the process easier?

Hair removal without pain is the dream of every woman. Where Pain Comes From: The hair follicle is closely connected to a network of nerve endings. When the hair follicle leaves its “home”, a person feels discomfort. To make the procedure less painful, you must follow a number of recommendations:

  1. Steam the skin before epilation - take a shower or bath. Opened pores are more likely to give up the hair follicle.
  2. Use a scrub before the procedure to remove the keratinized layer of cells. This will ensure a smooth glide over the skin and additionally lift the hairs.

Hair removal without pain is not a myth, but a very real home care procedure. The intimate area is highly sensitive, especially for the labia and intergluteal region. If epilation still hurts, if the methods listed above do not help dull the pain, use gel with lidocaine or menovazine solution for local anesthesia.

Menovazin is produced in the form of a liquid solution and ointment - choose a convenient consistency of the composition. It has a noticeable analgesic effect due to the presence of menthol, procaine and benzocaine in the composition. The components block sodium channels and do not allow pain impulses to occur in nerve fibers.

How to relieve irritation after?

Skin irritation after epilation is a completely normal reaction. It can be expressed by slight reddening of the skin, the formation of small red spots or a small net of pimples. It all depends on the degree of sensitivity of the skin and its characteristics.After epilation, it is necessary to treat the skin with an antiseptic or a soothing lotion without alcohol, since the latter dries the skin severely. Excessive dryness of the cover can lead to peeling, itching and ingrown hairs. After skin treatment, it is necessary to provide further care - this will reduce the risk of acne (including purulent) and itching:

  1. Apply a cooling compress - it will relieve the resulting itching and the pain remaining after epilation (you probably feel how the skin hurts after hair removal). You can use the supplied cooling glove or attach a bag of ice/frozen vegetables/fish, a bottle of ice water.
  2. Use a soothing cream: "Bepanten", "Panthenol", "Rescuer" and any other means of burns - they are the most effective.
  3. Apply moisturizer (an ordinary child will do).
  4. You can use a special cream after the epilator any brand, including "anti-ingrown hair" - it will additionally "delay" the appearance of new hairs.

Immediately before and after epilation, the skin should be treated with antiseptic solutions:

  • "Chlorhexidine";
  • hydrogen peroxide;
  • decoction of herbs (chamomile, mint, a mixture of various plants with an antibacterial effect);
  • lotion with aloe, including homemade;
  • thermal water.

It is necessary to treat the skin with soft movements, exclude rubbing - they can cause additional reddening of the skin. You can use thermal water within one or two days after epilation - it moisturizes the epidermis well.
