We know the answer doesn’t always come easy, so we’ll walk you through the pros and cons of\u00a0the most common hair removal techniques\u00a0for the hairy details (pun intended)!<\/p>\n

Shaving<\/h3>\n
\n

Possibly the most accessible of them all. With shaving you remove the\u00a0hair\u00a0close to the skin\u2019s surface. Unfortunately, the hair usually makes a speedy comeback as the roots stay put.\u00a0The\u00a0time it\u00a0takes to\u00a0grow back\u00a0depends on which body part you shaved,\u00a0as well as your unique\u00a0hormonal balance, but expect to see it popping up no later than 2 days after the shave!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Chemical Depilatories<\/h3>\n
\n

Veet and Nair are popular examples of chemical depilatories that melt the hair away. And, just like with shaving, the roots aren’t removed, meaning that new hair will quickly resurface.\u00a0Please remember that these lotions can irritate your skin\u00a0because\u00a0hair-removal\u00a0chemicals frequently\u00a0penetrate the skin.<\/p>\n

Tweezing<\/h3>\n

Another staple of our your beauty routine, tweezing is most commonly used for shaping eyebrows or removing those annoying stray hairs. Tweezing is really great for the latter, such as keeping things tidy between waxes. However, it’s extremely time-consuming and completely unrealistic for the removal of a large amount of hair.<\/p>\n

\n

Sugaring<\/h3>\n

Sugaring (or Persian waxing) is a very old hair removal technique that is often considered\u00a0to be a more natural\u00a0alternative. A sugar paste made with water, lemon juice and sugar as the main ingredients is\u00a0applied with a spatula and removed with a strip of cloth or paper. Some claim it’s less painful than waxing, but the results vary wildly, depending on the composition of the paste and the skill level of beauty practitioners.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Threading<\/h3>\n

Threading is an ancient technique that uses a strand of knotted cotton thread that tie around individual hairs and pull them out. Threading doesn’t usually traumatise your skin, but it can irritate those with\u00a0sensitive skin. It’s regarded as a safe method for those\u00a0who can’t or don’t want to wax.<\/p>\n

Waxing<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n

Arguably the most durable and efficient method, waxing usually means applying different\u00a0types of warm wax to remove hair from the body with precise, quick movements. The most popular types of wax are:<\/p>\n
