Brazilian Bikini Waxing Primer
The Brazilian bikini wax is known worldwide as the fastest, safest and most effective way to remove all hair down under without shaving. For many of us with unwanted hair, this area is particularly tough to manage yet waxing usually last up to 4 weeks being silky smooth without having unsightly hair growth or being bothersome. Bikini hair is typically the coarsest and fastest growing, which makes shaving a daily hassle. Again, one of the best ways is getting Brazilian bikini waxing.
The Brazilian Bikini Experience
Getting a Brazilian bikini wax done does not have to be a headache. Here are a few pointers that will make your service go smoothly and with as little discomfort as possible. The first is to make sure that your hair is at least ¼” long before your appointment. Hair that is much shorter will not grip the wax enough to be properly pulled out. This leads to painful breakage of smaller hairs and poor results. As a rough guideline, Brazilian bikini waxing appointments can generally be scheduled five weeks apart for maximum results. This service provides at least three weeks of smooth skin, which is one of the reasons some women prefer it over shaving.
Another tip is to not use body lotions or oils around the area before the service. These would make it more difficult for the wax to grip the hair if the technician is using soft wax. For those with sensitive skin, it is okay to take one or two Advil or a similar anti-inflammatory over-the -counter pill. A professional waxer performs the service quickly and precisely to minimize pain.
Results That Last
Not only do all types of waxings leave the skin smooth and completely free of hair, they also make hair less coarse when it does eventually grow back. This is due to the fact that shaving hair blunts the ends of the hair, causing them to be sharp and coarse. Waxing pulls hair out at the root of the follicle, which is why it takes many weeks for the follicle and hair shaft to grow back in. The fresh hair regrowth is softer and less irritating when it grows in. Brazilian Bikini waxes are a fast and easy way to take care of hair for an entire month at a time.
