When summer
comes calling we all turn to our trusted wax strips to flaunt the perfect legs in that cute summer midi dress. But if
the waxing horror stories and myths you hear from your circle of friends stops
you from getting the perfect legs, read on as the waxing misconceptions are
debunked.
Myth #1 Waxing makes your new hair
grow thicker
It's high
time this common misconception is busted, in fact waxing has the opposite
effect on your skin. Unlike shaving, regular waxing makes your hair grow softer
and sparse as waxing works like exfoliation at the root level. It pulls your
hair with its roots thus weakening your hair follicles and reducing hair
regrowth.
Myth #2 Waxing prevents ingrown hairs
This is only
partly true because waxing cannot directly prevent ingrown hairs. However,
exfoliating your skin before a wax can help reduce ingrown hairs. Add Hair
Puller Ingrown Hair Treatment Spray by Starpil to your waxing regimen to
prevent ingrown hairs. Sensitive skin is more prone to ingrown hairs caused by
shaving. Waxing with Starpil’s blue wax
is the best hair removal method for those with sensitive and dry skin.
Myth #3 Waxing leads to wrinkles and
sagging skin
This is the
major waxing myth that keeps a lot of women from waxing facial hair, but now
you can take a sigh of relief as it is found to be untrue. While waxing the
skin is held taut by the technician to keep it from tugging at the skin. It is
important to invest in a good facial waxing kit as your facial skin is more sensitive than the rest of your
body.
Myth #4 You have to grow out your
hair to wax it
Not
necessarily. Hair that is the length of a grain of rice is enough to get a
smooth wax in just one go. But even hair that is as short as 1mm can be removed
with Starpil's range of hard wax.
Myth #5 Pregnant women can't wax
You can go
unperturbed with your waxing routine even if you're expecting, as waxing is
safe at all stages of pregnancy. But you will thank yourself for getting your
waxing done in the first two trimesters. Come third trimester you will hardly
be able to get a good look waist down with your growing belly obstructing the
view, let alone waxing.
Make sure
you always use the best wax quality
for rash and irritation-free waxing.
