Epilation of the deep bikini area

Removing unwanted hair is a mandatory procedure for almost every woman, because smooth skin always looks especially attractive. Epilation of the deep bikini zone is a great opportunity to get rid of vegetation for a long time.

Vegetation removal is associated with two concepts:

• epilation;
• depilation.

Epilation destroys the hair follicle, while depilation has a detrimental effect only on the supercutaneous part of the hair. The effect is also excellent. Hair removal with depilatory products leads to short-term smoothness from 1 to 3 days. Epilation gives smoothness for several weeks. After the destruction of the bulb, the hairs become soft, while depilation thickens them and makes them tougher.

So, epilation is the destruction of the hair follicle in various ways, whether it be wax, sugaring, laser. Hair removal from the deep bikini area includes the release of pubic hair, the area between the thighs, labia and buttocks. An intimate haircut on the left thin strip of pubic hair can also be part of the procedure.

Today, hair removal pleases with its diversity, as well as a fundamentally different effect on the hairs. So, the most famous procedure since the time of Cleopatra is bioepilation. For its implementation, a wax composition is used, among the ingredients of which you can see pine resin, beeswax, skin-soothing esters.

The bioepilation procedure is carried out in three ways:

• using hot wax;
• with the participation of a warm mixture;
• cold method using special strips.

Hot wax is considered the most gentle and less painless here, because when applied with a spatula, it opens and steams the pores. Skin that has undergone such heat treatment is easier to part with the vegetation. It is worth noting that the temperature of the wax is exactly 60 degrees. Deviation from this value may cause burns. Warm and cold methods for a deep bikini are not often used, since the pain is quite high.

Another vegetation removal based on natural ingredients is Sugam, or shugaring. This method is based on an available sugar mixture with the addition of water and lemon juice. The sticky, caramel-flavoured paste is applied against the direction of hair growth and removed in the direction of growth, which, according to experts, will neutralize the problem of ingrown hairs. You can remove caramel with paper or fabric strips according to the principle of a wax procedure, or you can simply use your hands.

And if the first two methods can be called quite affordable both at home and in beauty salons, then electrolysis is not carried out in every medical center. Its feature is conclusion in tools such as:

• tweezer electrode;
• needle electrode.

Tweezers are especially successful for painless hair removal from the bikini area, however, the procedure with its participation takes a significant amount of time. A needle electrode made of gold or a medical alloy is inserted into the follicle and destroys the base of the hair. The essence here lies in the impact on the root of high-frequency alternating current, which instantly heats and destroys. In both cases, redness and crusts remain on the body, interfering with the smoothness of the first week after the procedure.

Photoepilation has become an innovative procedure. Its effect is based on high-pulse light. With this exposure, the hair follicle dies, because it does not receive proper nutrition.

The advantages of photoepilation are great:

• the risk of infection is reduced to zero due to non-contact effects on the skin and hair;
• the speed of the process, not exceeding 30 minutes;
• smoothing and restoring the skin.

It is worth saying that despite all the advantages, only dark vegetation can succumb to the procedure. Very light hairs do not contain pigment - melanin, and therefore thorough removal is impossible. In addition, the procedure is not performed on damaged and overly sensitive skin, as this is fraught with burns. Photoepilation has its own rehabilitation period, equal to 5-7 days. During this time, the skin should not be exposed to sunbathing and scrubbing.

A more gentle method will be the epilator procedure. This device that removes hairs from the root can be powered by a battery or mains. The skin becomes inflamed during its initial application, but subsequent procedures become more comfortable. Vegetation after the epilator becomes thinner, the hair becomes soft and does not cause irritation during their growth.However, softness also becomes a significant disadvantage, since in the absence of skin care, the hairs cannot break through the layers of the skin, which means they remain ingrown.

Preparing for epilation is a responsible event, because it will reduce pain and prolong the effect of smoothness. So, the first condition is the choice of the date of the procedure. Experts and experienced girls are advised to carry out any of the epilation immediately after the end of menstruation or on its last day. The pain threshold during this period is reduced, as is the rate of hair growth.

Next comes the preparation of the skin. Her shaving should take place 5-7 days before the procedure. During this time, the hair will grow back enough. Then, the day before the event, the skin is cleansed with a gentle scrub. If the procedure takes place at home, the skin is steamed before epilation. A visit to the salon does not require steaming, because the wax or sugar mixture is already heated to the desired temperature.

Another key point is mental preparation. The maximum possible calmness and focus on the result will help to endure some discomfort of the procedure itself. Still, if the procedure is taking place for the first time, pain relief may be a reasonable solution.

Anesthesia can take place without and with the help of drugs. For example, some girls cool their skin with ice before epilation, which is fundamentally wrong. Ice narrows the pores, which means that the hairs are more securely strengthened and their pulling out becomes very painful. Steaming is more efficient here.

Nevertheless, for greater certainty, experts recommend using medications. For example, the well-known spray "lidocaine» applied to the skin a few hours before the procedure and covered with cling film. Under such influence, the active substance is absorbed into the skin as much as possible.

You can also use special creams. Them as well as "Lidocaine”, is produced by the Hungarian brand. There is also a Swedish cream and patch "Emla". For 2 hours of aging the cream, anesthesia penetrates 3 mm under the skin.

In specialized beauty and medical centers, they are increasingly resorting to injections of painkillers before epilation. The same lidocaine, produced for injections in ampoules, acts as a drug. It is injected into the pubic area and inner thighs.

In addition to all of the above procedures, some ladies prefer to take painkillers orally. It might be classic analgin, ibuprofen or paracetamol. According to experts, their action is very weak, and therefore it is most reasonable to abandon this method.

And if the pills cannot bring the desired effect, then a combination of injections and creams can make the hair removal procedure comfortable. So, the cream is applied a few hours before removal, while injections are administered immediately before the procedure.

The processes of epilation of the bikini zone vary. For example, when shugaring, the mixture is applied against hair growth, and removed according to growth, in waxing, everything happens exactly the opposite. Laser, photoepilation and electrolysis involve a visit to a beautician.

Hair removal starts from the pubic area. She is not so sensitive, which allows the girl to get used to the pain and adequately accept further manipulations. The inner side of the thighs is a more sensitive part of the body, and therefore they begin to clear it of vegetation after the pubis. The most tender area, left in the end, are the labia and mucous membranes. The skin for removal with a viscous mixture in these places is stretched as much as possible, after which a sharp jerk of the hair occurs.

Hair removal is gradual. Wax or sugar is applied to a small area of ​​the skin, after which a special paper strip or cloth is applied. After strong pressing, the wax clings tightly to the surface of the material and makes it easy to remove the hair with a single jerk.

There is no single answer to the question of which means is better to carry out hair removal. The search for the ideal solution here is mostly based on trial and error for your own skin.

So, if the skin is particularly sensitive and prone to allergies, you should choose products such as:

• sugar paste;
• photoepilation;
• laser hair removal;
• process using a mechanical epilator.

If there is not much time for the procedure, you should pay attention to:

• wax;
• sugaring.

The large area coverage of the strip reduces the process time. However, the pain at the same time increases, rather than from acupressure with an epilator or tweezers-electrode.It is worth saying that shugaring is referred to as more gentle and less painful methods, if we compare the process with waxing.

The procedure for removing hairs with an epilator is understandable and accessible to every beginner. After steaming and drying the skin, the device is entrusted with the task. It must be directed against hair growth, pulling the skin on the epilated area.

It is worth getting used to wax and sugar. So, speaking of shugaring, it is first of all important to choose the right composition. It can be soft, medium and hard.

Smooth the sugar ball over the skin by pressing well on the surface. For the first time, the best solution is a small ball, which is enough for a few centimeters of skin. After applying it against hair growth and smoothing it several times with the index and middle fingers, the layer is pulled off along the hair growth with a sharp movement. Removal in several jerks is possible. Smooth movements are contraindicated here, as the paste will begin to stick to the fingers and stretch.

The bandage removal technique is suitable for soft pastes and waxes. Its essence lies in the use of paper and fabric strips. Adhering to the vegetation removal scheme, the wax or paste is first applied to a small area of ​​the pubis, spread in a thin layer and the strip is glued, smoothing it several times. A few jerks along the hair growth and the vegetation is removed from the root. Sugaring and waxing lessons show that one strip or ball for manual technique can be used several times.

It is worth noting that some ladies sprinkle their skin with talcum powder before applying the mixture. It is believed that this action achieves less damage to the epidermis, while not preventing good adhesion to the hairs. Also, many people recommend using nitrile gloves when using manual equipment, even at home. When the procedure is over, the remnants of the mixture are removed with special wipes, and a soothing cream is applied to the skin after epilation.

So, let's start with the removal process with a mechanical epilator. The first procedure always forms redness on such a sensitive area, which disappears after 2-3 days. The skin after the rehabilitation period becomes smooth, and the result is ideal in the first week, as short hairs still remain and continue to grow. Therefore, the epilator should be used to remove the remains of vegetation throughout the entire time, as well as monitor ingrown hairs that ruin the aesthetic appearance.

Wax procedure hairs in the bikini area also causes irritation, because strips are removed against hair growth. After the procedure, irritation becomes apparent, and there is also a tendency to ingrowth, because a jerk against hair growth deforms the hair follicle.

Sugaring – a method with less noticeable redness due to removal by growth. Ingrown hairs rarely make themselves felt, and perfect smoothness lasts 2-3 weeks after the process.

One of the worst comparisons before and after has electrolysis. The electrode needle inserted under the skin leaves a point redness and is converted into crusts within a week.It is not surprising that it is rarely used for the bikini area.

Photoepilation when comparing pictures, it has a wonderful effect on dark hair. The skin immediately acquires an aesthetic appearance, although it is not recommended to demonstrate it immediately. Dark skin with light vegetation in the options after does not have a presentable appearance, because the hairs are removed poorly.

The effectiveness of the procedure is considered by the duration of smoothness of the skin. Here it has the best effect:

• photoepilation;
• laser;
• electrolysis.

After the first application, the hair does not grow within 1-2 months, depending on the nature of the vegetation. After a full course of 4 procedures, vegetation can be forgotten for 3 years.

Bioepilation, sugaring and a mechanical epilator make the skin smooth for a period of 10-20 days. Over time, the terms increase slightly, as the vegetation changes its character to a softer one.

Today you can name only one type of painless hair removal - this photoepilation. It can be used without anesthesia, without fear of getting discomfort.

Electrolysis and laser hair removal proceeds, as mentioned earlier, with pain. However, subject to the procedure in the salon with anesthesia, these types are quite comfortable.

Of course, scientists would like to invent a tool that can permanently remove unwanted vegetation. Alas, so far it remains only in dreams. However, even today, with the help of a full course of photoepilation, you can forget about the hairs for several years. Oils and anti-hair growth products will also help to stretch the pleasure of touching completely smooth skin for as long as possible.

The results of epilation have a lot of advantages. So, with its help, women forget about irritation and itching in the bikini area with the growth of new hard hairs. They also forget about shaving every 2-3 days. The skin becomes more velvety.

The downside is the process itself. Firstly, it takes a lot of time, and secondly, it brings painful and unpleasant sensations. It is pain that becomes a contraindication to hair removal for pregnant women and just people with sensitive skin. Another disadvantage is the consequences in the form of ingrown soft hairs, which, in the absence of attention to them, can develop under the skin, reaching a length of 2 cm.

Despite some shortcomings, women who are accustomed to hair removal admire her. Ladies who prefer to trust themselves to professionals, forever become supporters of photoepilation. Women who bring their beauty to perfection at home prefer budget wax or shugaring.

So, according to users, it is shugaring that has a more gentle effect on the skin. It is good for them to remove vegetation even in the deep bikini area without medication. Wax is less popular because of the rather painful sensations.

Review statistics show that not every woman trusts the deep bikini zone to the masters, embarrassed and not trusting anyone but herself. As a rule, the first home procedure ends in failure. At that time, the girls who entrusted their body to an experienced master note that the salon procedure is many times faster and even in some cases less painful.

Ladies with a high pain threshold leave a lot of impartial comments on the topic of hair removal, calling the procedures torture, and the masters sadists.In fact, even the highest sensitivity can be reduced with medication, which means that the procedure can be made comfortable for the most delicate persons.
