Waxing is one of the best body care investments anyone can ever get. It’s a temporal hair removal method that most people prefer to use. Other hair removal methods other than waxing can be shaving, threading, and plucking.
While you can remove hair through the said options, the result is less clean than when you’ve waxed. With waxing, your hair grows slower, which is a big plus. There are different types of waxing for hair removal that you can do either yourself or get done professionally in salons.
Most waxing types can be a bit painful, especially for beginners. However, the pain is bearable, and you get used to it with time.
Suppose you are just getting started with waxing and are wondering which one to get or want to try out new styles, read through our blog. To answer your question on how many waxing types are there, the truth is they are many. However, we’ve highlighted the five most popular types of waxing for hair removal that you’ll come across.
5 Different Types of Waxing for Hair Removal
- Full Bikini Waxing
It involves the removal of pubic hair through a wax that first sticks to the hair and pulls it out. This type of waxing covers all areas visible from a bathing suit. With this waxing, you can remove hair up to four finger width from the bikini line and two finger width top of the bikini area.
Bikini waxing will remove not only your pubic hair from the root but also the dead cells around the area. The result is smooth and even-toned skin, and the hair growth will be finer and thinner. Full bikini waxing is the perfect solution if you want long-lasting results.
Now, does waxing help remove hair permanently? Well, the answer to this is no! Even when you get full bikini waxing, the results last longer as mentioned above but they are not permanent.
- Brazilian Waxing
‘Does regular waxing remove hair permanently?’
This is probably one frequent question that waxing beginners always ask. Brazilian waxing, being one of the most regularly used waxing types, is a hair removal method primarily used to clean up the bikini line. Many women who want this area to be bare go for this option.
Unlike other bikini waxing procedures that leave some hair on the pubic area, Brazilian waxing leaves you with no hair. Well, the process can be a bit painful, but there are some measures you can take to minimize the pain. They include:
- Trimming your hair to about half quarter an inch
- Avoid getting your Brazilian waxing done a week before your periods
- Take a painkiller before you get waxed to reduce the pain
Despite the little pain, which you can, of course, endure, Brazilian waxing leaves you cleaner and sexier!
- Mini Brazilian Waxing
When getting a mini Brazilian waxing, all hair from the front is removed completely. Your waxing person will instruct you to lay on your back with your feet together and legs bent. You should breathe steadily until the waxing is complete.
- Underarm Waxing
Of course, we must wax our armpits from time to time. Otherwise, you might feel embarrassed to lift your hand or wear clothes that are not fully covering your arms.
With underarm waxing, hair is removed from the root. Your armpit area gets some glow and can remain hair free for a couple of weeks.
- Full Leg Waxing
Who wants to feel insecure due to the massive hair growth visible when walking in a short dress or swimsuit? You can walk confidently and glow your legs by getting full leg waxing.
With full-leg waxing, one amazing thing to expect is that your hair will grow thinner. Sometimes it might not grow back, which is perfect.
The downside of full-leg waxing is that it can be quite expensive at the salon. On the other hand, doing it at home alone might be pretty painful, but you can get it done!
Wrapping Up
You can never go wrong with waxing, especially if your hair grows out fast. Note that the more you shave, the more your hair grows back and, this time, thicker. The best thing about waxing is that it removes hair from the root. You can always do it yourself or get it done by a professional.
