Top 6 Reasons Why You Should Wax Instead of Shave

Waxing is a great option for hair removal and for good reason.  There are numerous reasons why and as waxing specialists we compiled our top reasons why this is true.

1.     Reduced or Eliminate Ingrown Hairs: Hairs are less likely to be trapped under the skin due to a smooth, tapered end unlike the blunt cut of a razor.  Your Esthetician will also give tips to educate you on the best way to take care of your skin.

2.     Waxing Results Lasts Longer: Removing hair from the root initially gives about 2 weeks of hair-free skin and repeated waxing slows down the growth increasing that time.

3.     Hair Grows Back Thinner: The hair follicles become weaker with waxing and thus finer hair, meaning the hair on your skin that does grow back is less likely to be seen.  This is huge for those with darker hair and the 5:00 shadow-feeling confident in a sleeveless shirt or bathing suit.

4.     Waxing Leaves The Skin Smoother and Softer: This is due to hair being removed at the root level, unlike shaving which is at the skin level.

5.     Semi-Permanent: Waxing is considered a semi-permanent method due to the hair follicles becoming weakened with repeated waxing.  Over time, you’ll see less and less hair, meaning waxing is needed less often.

6.     Quicker Shower Times: This is a huge win for time crunched mornings. This is the Holy Grail for busy women and isn’t that all of us?
