Depilation of the intimate zone is a delicate matter that every woman decides in her own way. Recently, there are many ways to get rid of the vegetation on the body once and for all, laser and electro-epilation can achieve a visible effect in just a few procedures. And so, when technology began to allow long to eliminate hair in intimate places, the old good depilation methods - a machine and a hair remover cream - returned to fashion again. We will explain why this phenomenon is connected.
Secrets of intimate depilation
As is known, the term "hair removal" hides the method of hair removal with the hair follicle, and "depilation" refers to the removal of only the visible part of the hair, the root procedure does not affect. It is this fundamental difference that contributed to the newly increased popularity of means for depilation of the intimate zone. The pros are obvious:
- speed of the process;
- painless procedure;
- low injuries;
- absence of growing hair;
- absence of contraindications;
- the ability to change the design of an intimate hairstyle in the future.
Owners of thin and light hair laser and photoepilation simply will not help, there are only shugaring, wax epilation and electro-epilator. Not every woman is ready to endure the pain of such procedures, especially in places with thin and sensitive skin, such as in the bikini area.
Till now among doctors and inhabitants disputes and about the hygienic aspect of presence of hair in an intimal zone are conducted. Natural vegetation acts as a natural barrier to foreign microorganisms, it creates a bacterial background of a woman that protects her from infections of the genitourinary system. Of course, with all hygiene standards observed.
In such conditions, the fashion for bikini-design reappeared: the method of hair removal is gaining popularity only in places that protrude from underwear. All the rest of the vegetation is neatly trimmed with a trimmer to a length of 3-5 mm.
Also, many women prefer the French and Brazilian version of an intimate hairstyle - when there is a thin strip or triangle of hair of usual length, and the rest are shaved. This allows you to depilate in intimate places at home, just buy a suitable device or cream.
How do depilation in intimate places?
Depilation of the intimate zone at home is much less exciting process than hair removal in the salon. The main thing is to observe a few simple rules:
- If you use the machine, be sure to use special creams and shaving gels . This will reduce the likelihood of cuts in such a delicate area.
- To conduct depilation should be after a hot shower, or bath. Some advise even to impose a hot compress on the bikini zone - if you cut the hair on the steamed skin, the time interval between the two procedures of depilation increases several times. Instead of 2 days you will get 3-4 days of perfectly smooth skin.
- The movement of the machine is shaved and the spatula for removing hair when depilating with cream should be directed not against hair growth, but diagonally. This will not affect the quality of shaving, but will reduce the uncomfortable sensations.
- The trimmer should be disinfected after each haircut.
- After using the cream, do not wash the skin with soap for 4-5 hours. It is also not advisable to use any make-up for the bikini zone.
Let's dwell on each of these depilation methods. For example, the cream for depilation of intimate places in the future makes the vegetation on the body more thin and sparse, and shaving, on the contrary, promotes thickening of hairs. Trimmer in this respect does not affect the nature of the hairline. At the same time, after shaving, you can and even need to use an antiseptic lotion and a cream that softens the skin. But after the depilatory cream, such measures will only provoke unnecessary irritation.
