Which is better for the skin, a hair removing cream or waxing?
Definitely waxing!I’ll give you advantages of using waxing over hair removal creams below.Of course waxing causes pain but it’s nothing unbearable , just the first few times after that you’d get accustomed to it.On the other hand hair removal creams cause zero pain.Waxing removes hair right from the root.Hair removal creams do not remove hair from the root. This is the major drawback of hair removal cream. To give my best answer I’ve just used the hair removal cream and now my arm looks terrible cause if you won’t apply the cream evenly then there will be loss of hair at one point and the other area just remains like that ( by that I mean there will be no removal of hair! ) And trust me it looks really hideous. Imagine having patches of hair here and there on your arm. Ugh!The other important advantage of waxing is , it evens removes your tan ( if you have any ).Hair removal creams darken up your skin after regular use!The hair growth reduces gradually due to frequent waxing.Hair removal creams reduce the strength of hair follicle but it has nothing to do with hair growth.Waxing cost depends upon the place and the beautician. However you could just learn the technique and can buy your own wax and machine.The cost of hair removal creams also depend on the product because there are products ranging from 200 INR to 5000 INR.For more details check out this link: Hair Removal 101: To Shave, to Wax, or to Laser?Another best alternative is to take laser treatment. It burns a hole in your pocket but there’ll be no more waxing and you don’t have to worry about how your underarms look or don’t have to think before wearing a bikini!Happy waxing! :)Hope my answer was helpful! :)P.S. Gentle reader, it seriously doesn’t look good to have patches of hair here and there on your body let alone your arms! :( Ugh ugh ugh!
Can we use wax strips to remove underarm hair?
Hey there!Yes, you can use waxing strips to remove underarms hair only if you are using Soft and liquidy wax, but if you are using hard wax then you won’t be needing waxing strips. You can simply apply hard wax let it dry and peel it off via hands. Though I agree with Tamar it is better to use hard wax rather than using soft wax for underarms as it is less messy and prevents ingrown hair.Hope this was helpful!
How to get less hairy arms without shaving or waxing?
Have you considered bleaching it? Sally Hansen makes great facial bleach which I believe can also be used on other areas of the body. Bleaching is better for smaller areas though, so if it's for a small section of the arm, that would be okay. If it were for the entire arm or more, waxing, epilating or using hair removal cream on it should allow for regrowth that's less like stubble.
How can I get rid of hair on my arms without shaving?
Q: How can I get rid of hair on my arms without shaving?An interesting fact is that humans and chimpanzees have about the same number of body hairs. The only difference is the length and coarseness.The hair we have on our bodies is determined by the genes received from our parents. While most people groom the hair on their heads, few actually do anything to the rest. You’ll have to remember that shaved hair continues to grow and is only a stub, which feels coarser that uncut hairs, probably not what you’re looking for.I sincerely hope that you aren’t concerned about the appearance of your arms due to what some idiot is saying. Know that no one is truly perfect in appearance and any imagined defect is only worst in your own mind.I remember my mother saying she felt her arm hair was too dark. But I had never noticed it, nor had anyone else. She ignored her perceived appearance defect, and nobody noticed it anyway.

Have you ever tried to shave/wax/laser remove your arm hair in any manner?
No, my mother told me that it grows back ugly and scruffy. I perfer for you not to remove any hair off your arms
Whats the best way to remove hair on your arms and shoulders without razor bumps?
Wax them baby's! I have extremely hairy arms for a girl. So I've been there. When waxing your arms have a pro do it. Salon's will do it. Mine does it for about $30 and you will have to have it done about once a month for awhile. Waxing it rips out the hair follicles and by doing this your hair will start growing in less dark and thinner. AKA making the hair go away completely after enough times of waxing. But honestly it doesn't hurt very much at all. And its the best way. You will have smooth skin for about 1-2 weeks before it starts to come back and you very rarely will get bumps. ^_^
How do men get rid of body hair without waxing?
Removal Treatment..What It Does : Using laser light energy to penetrate the hairshaft, it actually kills the hair root. This doesn't kill the follicle(the place where hair growth starts). So technically, anotherhair can grow in its place, but it's difficult. That means resultsof laser hair removal last a fairly long time.How Long It Takes : Roughly 30 minutes per treatment, up toeight treatments needed.Best For : Removing or reducing hair on back, chest, stomach,shoulders, and genital area. Works best on light skin with darkhair; not suitable for blond or white hair. Black skin respondswell to only one type of laser, the Nd: YAG.Cost : $400-500 per treatment.Lasting Result : After all laser hair removal treatments arecompleted, results could be almost permanent, with touch-uptreatments annually or biannually to maintain results.Expert Comments : "Most men utilize laser hair removal for theback, upper arms, and chest and most want it thinned out, notremoved -- something which lasers can easily accomplish,"says Goldberg. In fact, other than electrolysis, laser hairremoval is the only hair removal treatment that allows forthinning, rather than complete removal. While the average manneeds five to seven sessions, as men age, more hair grows,especially on their backs, says Goldberg. As such, touch-uplaser hair removal treatments are usually needed on averageonce a year.
What are the best methods to remove your underarm and pubic hair?
You have a number of temporary options that vary in terms of cost, duration and commitment. The most affordable option available is simply to shave the hair, however, this has a few risk that include increase risk of follicle infections as well as accidentally cutting your rear, which might be unpleasant. Your next best bet is getting the hair waxed or sugared off giving you a good couple of weeks of hairlessness, depending on how fast your regrowth rate is. In terms of longer lasting treatments, I would suggest that you look into getting laser hair removal (the results only last for up to two years though). Laser hair removal is more of a hair reduction method, so any regrowth will be a lot less noticeable but the hair will regrow. I think what you might be looking for is electrolysis/electro-epilation. It is the only known permanent method of hair removal. Yes, permanent. It can be costly, but if you truly want to see permanency, electrolysis is your best bet.I don't want to influence your choice too much so do your research before you invest in any of these treatments.
Body hair removal: veet, nair or no no?
Kso, my arm hair is atrocious. And sorry this is kinda long.. But I have darkish brown head hair but my facial/body hair appears black. I don't understand.. but anyway, I really NEED -- let alone, want -- to get rid of my arm hair before school starts. I'm starting high school and it's so embarrassing looking like a gorilla with all this arm hair! LOL. Anyways, I was thinking about getting Nair or Veet. I looked at the reviews for Nair and they weren't so great. A lot of people said the smell was horrible and it burned their skin a little. I used to use Nair for my legs when I was younger and I remember the horrible smell but I honestly don't remember it ever burning/irritation my skin. I wasn't sure if it would be different for my arms though. But I wanted to know if anyone else out there have used Nair for their arms without any hassles. Never used Veet, does/would it work good? Also, I heard about no!no! and I really wanted to try that too but I just don't know where to get it.. Or if it's even worth getting or if I'm better off just Nairing or Veeting. I thought about waxing too but I don't wanna have to go to the salon every 2-4 weeks just to get my arms waxed 'cause for Christmas I was hoping to get laser hair removal. Lol, it's really that bad. And I am NOT waxing my arms myself, i don't trust myself with that stuff lol and my mom isn't gonna wanna do it for me. So please if anyone has any advice or reviews for any of them that would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks!!
