The Most Effective Temporary and Permanent Male Hair Removal Procedures
The male population nowadays are no longer discreet with their grooming, and thus, the overwhelming popularity of male hair removal. These days, cyclists, body builders, and male strippers are not only the only guys who care about getting themselves free of unwanted hair.
Basically, male hair removal can be actually classified into two: temporary and permanent.
Now let’s discuss the options under each of them:
Temporary Male Hair Removal:
Waxing- This male hair removal is able to pull hair out from the roots which makes it a perfect option if you want to have a smooth and hairless skin for at least 4 weeks. For first-timers, it is well recommended that you have it done by somebody else instead of doing it yourself. When not done properly, you may just end up having bruises and an irritated skin, or you may not just pull the hair out down to the roots. Basically, the result is pretty much dependent on the skill of the person who carries out the waxing.
Creams and Gels- If you are on a tight budget, then this hair removal method may be suitable for you. You can also easily purchase any of these at any drug store near you, or maybe a pharmacy and even some grocery stores. Using these products is really easy. The procedure could be just as simple as applying the cream or gel to the area you want to remove hair from, and wait for several minutes as directed. What these kinds of product do is soften or melt the hair at the surface of the skin as it these creams and gels do contain certain compounds that are responsible for the said effect. Just make sure you test your skin for sensitivity before using this male hair removal method.
Shaving- This male hair removal is definitely not something new for men, in fact this is even the most popular method used in the male population. So the issue now will be just on the quality of shave that you get from this mode of removing hair. The qualities of the razor and the shaving cream or gel do matter a lot in terms of getting a perfect shave. It is good to shave in the direction of the hair growth and to be very careful so you don’t get any cuts and nicks. Another good practice when it comes to shaving is to rinse the shaved area with lukewarm water and to moisturize right after.
Permanent Male Hair Removal:
Laser- This male hair removal treatment must be conducted by a certified Laser Hair Removal Technician in order for you to achieve the ultimate result as the treatment itself is crucial. It is a painless procedure that is suitable for light-skinned people with dark hair. It can be quite expensive though, but the results say that each penny will be worth it. The procedure only takes a few minutes depending on the area being treated. But you have to remember that not everyone can be eligible for this procedure. It is best to let a credible practitioner assess your skin first before you decide on taking on this procedure.
Electrolysis- Aside from being cheaper than laser treatments, this permanent male hair removal method is also the only FDA approved permanent hair removal system that is available today. The procedure itself is described as inserting a needle into each hair follicle and charging a slight amount of electricity into it. You can either do this yourself or have a licensed electrologist do it for you. It also important to know that it can hurt a little, so people who have low pain-threshold may want to reconsider.
