Hair removal innovations like laser treatments, waxing, and sugaring are fast and convenient ways to remove unwanted hair without constant shaving and tweezing.
Napa Solano MediaSpa provides various hair removal services that safely and gently remove undesired hair from the face and body. Our experienced aestheticians deliver considerate and compassionate care to help you get rid of hair for weeks, months, and even longer.
In this post, we cover three of the most common hair removal techniques and explain their benefits and effectiveness.
What to Know About Hair Growth
On average, it takes about a month for body hair to grow to its full length; the hair on your head grows about six inches yearly. Factors like genetics, nutrition, aging, and health issues often affect hair growth rates.
Hair growth begins deep in your skin’s hair follicles. Since shaving only removes hair at the surface, it tends to grow back more quickly. And while tweezing removes hair at the root, you’ll still likely notice regrowth within a couple of weeks.
Fortunately, modern methods exist to remove hair for much longer times.
Waxing
Waxing for hair removal is a tried-and-true method that offers super-smooth results. Fast and efficient, it removes large areas of unwanted hair from the root at once. While waxing results aren’t permanent, your skin will be hairless and smooth for a good long while.
Sugaring
Sugaring hair removal is similar to waxing but is generally considered gentler on the skin. The all-nature process uses a mixture of sugar, water, lemon juice, and glycerin to remove body hair by quickly pulling the hair from the root. Unlike waxing, the sugar paste is applied in the same direction as hair growth and removed in the opposite direction.
Laser Treatment for Hair Removal
Non-invasive and safe, laser hair removal uses highly concentrated light to remove unwanted face and body hair for people of all skin tones and hair colors.
Laser hair removal treatment works by penetrating and damaging hair follicles to inhibit future hair growth. Since only actively growing hair follicles are affected by the laser, most people require four to six treatments to achieve significant results.
