To the processes of hair removal on the body, each girl suits her "proven" way. Someone chooses a simple depilation with a razor, someone more suitable option with electric depilatories. But most women use fast and modern ways of depilation - cream or wax strips.
Even those who only use razors at least once, but experimented with other methods of depilation. For those who for the first time decided to give smoothness to their skin, the question is what is better - wax strips or a depilation cream is in the first place. To choose your ideal method of hair removal, we will understand the minuses of each remedy and look at the dignity.
| Parameters | Wax strips | Cream |
|---|---|---|
| Scope | All skin areas - from the upper lip to the bikini zone | All skin areas - suitable for the leg area, bikini, and for the "path area" on the abdomen |
| Effect duration | Up to 4 weeks | Up to 7 days |
| Effect on subsequent hair growth | Prolonged use may cause bulb trauma and hair growth disorder | Chemicals in the long-term use act on the basis of the hair and destroy its core |
| Soreness of procedure | Wax depilation is considered one of the most painful ways of | Depilation procedure passes without pain |
| Disadvantages of | Allergic reaction to additional components or wax is possible( allergy to wax may occur over time with regular use). Wax removes gun hair and in their place can growalready coarser dark hair Irritation after the procedure can last about a day If it was not possible to "grab" all the hairs from the first time, you will have to repeat the procedure oruse tweezers | allergic reaction can occur at the chemical components means there are likely to get burned incorrectly chosen cream can disappoint you with its results. For example, it will not cope with hard hairs. Use the product in the intimate zone very carefully and carefully so as not to get burned. It has an unpleasant and sharp "chemical" smell. |
So, the main thing for every woman is the difference between the cream and the wax is the soreness of the procedure itself. If the depilation cream is simply applied to the skin, wait a few minutes - and remove the product with a special spatula, then the wax strips will require you to be courageous and resolute. You will have to "detach" the strips from the skin yourself, and then, if necessary, remove the remaining sticky wax.
However, wax depilation will save you from "vegetation" for several weeks, and the cream will need to be used at least once a week. As for the shortcomings - here, both means are almost equal. Both the cream and the wax can cause allergies and leave irritation.
The only advice that can be given on the use of strips or cream - if you are extremely sensitive to pain, and your hair does not differ rudeness and rigidity - refuse wax depilation, you will be well suited cream. If you belong to a selected category of brave young ladies who value the result, and you are going to remove hard hairs - depilation with wax will please you.
