Removing Underarm
Hair
Depilatories are applied directly on the hair in the form of a gel, foam, lotion, or cream.
They have a high amount of alkaline that dissolves the hair so that you can wipe it off. To
get the best results, use a nubby cloth to wipe off the depilatory and use short strokes
with a little pressure. The alkaline can be caustic and can irritate your skin, so always do
a patch test to determine if you have any allergy or if your skin is too sensitive for a
depilatory. It’s best to do the test in an area that is not obvious in case you have a bad
reaction. Depilatories also tend to have a sharp odor.
Shaving is the most common form of hair removal because it is quick and convenient.
Contrary to what many believe, shaving does not change the texture, color, or rate of hair
growth.
1) First thing in the morning is not the best time to shave. Your skin will be puffy, making
it difficult to get to the bottom of the hair shaft you seek to remove.
2) Don’t ever shave dry hair. Take your shower or bath before you shave, giving the hair
time to become engorged with water and thus an easier target to shave.
3) For a close shave, scrub your skin with an abrasive sponge to remove dead skin
around the hair shaft.
4) Try using hair conditioner instead of shaving cream; it’ll leave your skin very soft.
5) Change the razor blade after every third shave to reduce friction. You don’t want to
irritate your skin more than necessary.
6) Shave your underarms after you’ve done your body hair. This will allow more time for
your underarm hair to become prepared for a close shave. Move the razor in the same
direction as the hair growth.
8) Use as little pressure as possible on your razor. Use a razor with a hefty handle
instead of pressing hard.
9) Always apply a moisturizer after shaving to prevent flaky skin.
Waxing leaves your skin smoother than shaving does because it eliminates stubble by
pulling the hair out from below the top layer of skin. You can wax at home, and beauty
supply stores sell all the equipment you will need..
