Bikini Hair Removal Requires Special Attention


The bikini area is composed of the coarsest hair on the body and the most sensitive skin, so fashion insists that it be placed on public view, and it must be utterly smooth.

Some lucky souls are either so blond or so tough-skinned that keeping the bikini-line hair-free isn't a big deal, but most women have a terrible time.

Shaving, the most commonly used hair-removal method, is quick, but often creates a new problem in the form of razor burn or bumps.

Waxing lasts longer because it yanks the hair out from the root, but it's very painful, and unless you do a highly professional job of it, you'll end up with skin irritation.

Ingrown hairs are a problem with both methods, contributing to skin irritation.

So what do we do? The best advice i have been given from beauticians is to find what your skin likes. Some skin will react to shaving and some to hair removal creams and some to waxing.

Try all of them giving each 4 weeks and see what works best for you.
