What is waxing service? Does it hurt?

Nail salon 80521 - New Paradise Nails & Spa - Fort Collins CO: What is waxing service? Waxing is the process of hair removal from the root by using a covering of a sticky substance, such as wax, to adhere to body hair, and then removing this covering and pulling out the hair from the follicle.

New hair will not grow back in the previously waxed area for four to six weeks, although some people will start to see regrowth in only a week due to some of their hair being on a different human hair growth cycle. Almost any area of the body can be waxed, including eyebrows, face, pubic hair (called bikini waxing), legs, arms, back, abdomen, knuckles, and feet. There are many types of waxing suitable for removing unwanted hair.


Does it hurt?

"The good news is, when you start waxing consistently, what we're doing is training the hairs to come out at the same time so they can grow in at the same time," Christine said. "The first time hurts the worst, especially if you've been shaving, but once your hair structure starts changing because of waxing, it becomes so much easier and less painful."

Which is better: shave or wax?

Waxing removes the entire hair, from the root or follicle. Waxing for hair removal comes in two consistencies – hard wax and soft wax. ... Compared to shaving, waxing exfoliates more of your skin. Unless you have particularly sensitive skin, waxing will give you very smooth skin because it will remove hair and dead skin.
