The benefits of waxing vs. shaving

7/25/2016

11 Comments

 
Getting waxed at Thairapy Plus provides several benefits over shaving. 
  • Waxing pulls hair from the root and gives a smoother feel
  • Waxing lasts much longer than shaving
  • New baby hair grows back after waxing which is less irritating on the skin as opposed to shaving which cuts the hair at the skin’s surface and causes more discomfort as it grows back
  • Waxing consistently over time will deaden the hair follicle and cause hair to thin where you don’t want it anymore
We wanted to make our waxing services more comfortable and less groan worthy for our clients, so we are now using hard wax on the most sensitive areas, such as eyebrows, upper lip, bikini/Brazilian and underarms. Hard wax sets on the area to be waxed and is removed without a strip, it is also applied at a cooler temperature than a traditional soft/strip wax. Instead of adhering to the skin, it has a shrink wrapping effect and just clings to the hair which reduces inflammation and irritation. You’ll leave the salon less red and with much less lingering discomfort. We still use a strip wax for larger areas with tougher skin like, legs; arms; backs and chests. This enables us to make larger wax services as speedy as possible.

That being said, it shouldn't be surprising that there are cultures on the opposite end of the spectrum - peoples and places that will go to mind-boggling lengths to eliminate one more wrinkle, get skin just a little bit smoother and hopefully change our innermost souls in the process.

I thought it was interesting that waxing made it harder for the hair to grow back for the next few weeks. I've always been a hairy girl, so I've been thinking about waxing my legs. What are some tips for reducing the amount of pain?

Waxing sounds pretty great. I love how you said that it pulls the hairs out by the roots. That would be great for my chest and back, I think. I'm sick of having prickly skin in those areas.

I had no idea that waxing enough will deaden the hair follicles you don't want! That's really cool because eventually, you won't need to wax as much. I think this is the greatest benefit of getting waxed vs. shaving.

I shave but I definitely agree on that haha :D. I value that it's painless, quick and comfortable and I'm ready in a few minutes with no other people involved and no meticoulous prepping, but don't start if you can't tolerate a bit of stubble or will to shave often enough to prevent it and after a while it might not get as soft as you didn't touch it anymore :).

Thanks for sharing how waxing leaves you smoother than shaving and last longer. I hate shaving every day. I think it could be fun to get waxed and it would stop me from having to shave every day.

It's good to know that the baby hairs that grow back after waxing are much less irritating on the skin. I've been unsure what to do for the unwanted lip hair I noticed when putting on my makeup earlier this week. I appreciate you helping me understand some of the benefits getting a facial wax could provide for me!

I have a set of razors and trimmers I often trust but at the same time I prefer waxing is the best one for hair removal.
