Male Hair Removal - Waxing

It seems that even men have decided that they no longer find extra hair attractive. These days, men also enjoy the many benefits of waxing as a hair removal method. Gentlemen can now get themselves waxed in spas and salons or they can do it themselves at home.

Waxing can be done for the face, arms, underarms, chest, back, thighs, legs, and genital areas. Although waxing is a method for temporary hair removal, it's being inexpensive and ability to provide a smooth finish to the skin makes it a popular choice. Waxing prevents hair growth from three weeks to up to two months. The hair that does grow back in waxed areas tends to be lighter in color and much finer.

Although there are a lot of areas that can be successfully waxed, there are certain, more sensitive areas that should not be waxed. These include the male genitals (waxing here should be done by a trained professional only), nipples, areas inside the ears and nose, and the eyelashes.

The main problem with waxing is that it can be painful. But the pain is instant and does not last long. The pain is due to the fact that the hair is being pulled out including the roots. Skin irritation may occur, as well as, some soreness or redness. There are temporary. Just make sure that you do a patch test before you try wax treatments on your own to ensure that you are not allergic.

You can purchase waxing kits over the counter if you would like to do the waxing yourself at home. You may also make the waxing solutions at home if you prefer to use natural ingredients and want to be more hands-on. However, doing it by yourself may also means that hair in those hard-to-reach places will get left behind.

To get a more professional finish, you can get waxing done in a spa or a salon. These places have trained practitioners that can efficiently and professionally do the job and give you the clean and no hair look. A note of caution is needed with regards to "double dipping." The applicator is for single use only and should be discarded after each use to prevent infection.
