The 101 Waxing FAQ Guide For All The Gorgeous Women - Get All Your Answers Here!

The most important factor that helps you believe in something strongly is the knowledge about it. We can't advocate a practice or a product until we have experienced it, and experiences can go sour if you don't know enough about it.

We don't want women to keep waxing, the ultimate hair removal method; away just because they are unsure about how it could turn out to be. We want you to experience the sumptuous softness post waxing in the right way to actually understand its perks. However, just like we said, it is important to know the procedure well for a wholehearted pick.

This list of FAQs can give you a broader perspective towards waxing and thus, may enhance your experience!

• Let's start from the top, what is waxing?

Waxing is a type of hair removal method which is highly preferred for its lasting results. The wax is heated before application which attaches itself to the hair and when removed, the hair is pulled off from its root.

• Does waxing hurt as much as I've heard?

The other hair removal techniques work on the top-most layer of the skin not removing the hair from the root. However, waxing removes your hair from the root which makes it slightly painful. Although, it may not be much, just a bit of a stinging sensation when the strip is pulled. Regular waxing sessions are found to normalize this minimal pain.

• Why should I prefer waxing over other hair removal methods?

Razors and epilators work on the outside of the skin which results in immediate stubble growth. Waxing, on the other hand, pull the hair from the roots ensuring at least 2 weeks of completely hairless state. Moreover, there are risks of cutting and infecting your skin while using razors, shaving creams, etc. on your skin. Waxing does not pose such long-term risks.

• What kind of wax should I use?

There are basically two kinds of wax that you can choose from- soft wax and hard wax. The one which is being used since years is soft wax, the traditional one which is to be used with strips. Hard wax such as blue wax beads is the new age formula where you don't need strips and thus, is less painful. If you choose a professional hard wax kit you are sorted for smaller areas such as underarms, bikini, and face. It is difficult to apply hard wax on larger areas as it can get a bit messy.

• How much time will my stubble take to grow back?

This truly depends on your waxing cycle. If you are waxing for the first time, here is the tip: let your hair grow to at least three-quarters of a centimeter for an enhanced waxing experience. If you do so, your waxing may last up to 1.5-2 weeks before you see a stubborn stubble growth.

• Will my hair grow darker and thicker?

This is a popular misconception that women have regarding waxing. Your hair may grow thicker and darker every time you use a razor because the hair root strengthens as it is not removed. Waxing weakens the follicle. Continuous waxing can actually make the hair growth finer and sparser.

• How important are pre and post waxing products?

You may have noticed all the hullabaloo about pre and post waxing solutions and wondering if it's just another way of emptying your pockets. Well, it's not. As waxing is a thorough process affecting the hair follicles, the skin has to be clean before starting the process. Similarly, it has to be soothed post waxing for balancing the redness and inflammation that might occur. Thus, it is necessary to use these products if you really want to enjoy waxing. Don't bother buying these treatments separately. Professional wax warmer or hard wax kit includes these products.

• What's the ideal time to book an appointment for my next waxing session?

Just like we said before, waxing can have lasting results if you let your hair grow to a waxable length. A 3-week time before your next session can be enough for your hair to grow about 3/4th of a centimeter. Make sure you start exfoliating before a week to avoid ingrown hair.
