Opinions on whether it is necessary to epilate intimate areas are divided. Some people believe that the hair in these places protects the vagina from the penetration of bacteria and germs. But this is a lie. The vegetation in this area creates an excellent environment for the life and functioning of microbes. In addition, hair in the intimate area is the main cause of bad breath.
Shave

Using the epilator
Epilation of the intimate area at home is often carried out with an epilator equipped with small tweezers that capture and tear out hairs from the root. The procedure is very painful, and there is intense redness in the bikini area for several hours. But, fortunately, it disappears, and the effect of smooth skin lasts up to 4 weeks.

Waxing (waxing)
Before the waxing procedure, the hair in the intimate area is grown to a certain length. There are three types of waxing: warm, hot and cold. More about cold waxing will be discussed later, but now let's look at the first two types.
Warm wax is preheated in a water bath. It is applied in the same way as all types, that is, by growth, and removed against hair growth. After epilation, the treated skin appears tight. It's all about the wax residue on the epilated area, it is he who causes discomfort.
Hot wax is heated to 42 degrees in a wax machine and applied with a spatula. The effect of steaming makes the procedure of epilation of intimate places less painful and faster.
Electroepilation
Electroepilation is one of the most painful, but effective ways to remove hair in any area, including intimate ones. During the procedure, a needle electrode is inserted into the hair follicle. The main disadvantage of this method: the possibility of scarring andscars.
Photo and laser hair removal
Laser and photoepilation are similar in principle, since in both cases the skin is affected by light fluxes. In the first case, the beam acts on the melanin that is part of the hair, damages the follicles, thereby provoking their loss. For the treatment of 2 cm of skin, one flash of the epilator is sufficient. The laser hair removal procedure is most effective for light-skinned brunettes.
Full laser hair removal of intimate areas is limited to 5-7 visits to the beauty parlor with an interval of 6-8 weeks.
Epilation of the intimate area at home
Certainly, the most reliable and familiar way to remove vegetation in the bikini area is to use an epilator. But he has a significant minus - a strong soreness of the procedure. Agree, not everyone will be able to inflict such suffering on themselves, and sometimes there is not enough time or finances to go to beauty salons.
In recent years, shugaring has become a popular way to remove hair in the intimate area. This method is old, less painful, reliable and affordable. Sugaring can be done by women with sensitive skin and different types of pubic hair stiffness. In addition, sugar is hypoallergenic and has an antimicrobial function, so there will be no inflammation or irritation during and after the procedure.
Men's hair removal of intimate areas
Delicate hair removal procedurein demand not only among the fair sex, but also among the strong. Removal of vegetation in an intimate place in men is different in that the hair in this area grows faster and has a dense structure.
Men's epilation of intimate areas is carried out by the same methods as for women. But since the stronger sex is prone to fear of getting pain (especially in such a delicate place), in most cases preference is given to the old and proven method - shaving. But from here arises the following fear: the possibility of injuring the skin or getting irritation, after which the hands will constantly ask to go there.
Therefore, dear men, in order to make the intimate area clean and tidy, go to a beauty salon. Forget about embarrassment and discomfort, because for the master you are an ordinary client, and there is nothing terrible and even more shameful in this.
