Waxing vs Epilator
Hair removal is a hygienic concern not just for women but also for men. Everyone is looking for the best way to get rid of unwanted hairs. Different options are available but two of the most popular choices include waxing and the use of an epilator.
To help you decide which option to choose, let us look at the important points of comparison between the two.
Waxing is a known hair removal method used prior to the invention of an epilator. It is a semi-permanent way of removing hair from the roots. It is done by spreading a thin layer of wax on the skin and applying cloth on top, then finishing it by quickly ripping off the cloth. The wax used during the hair removal process can either be strip wax or hard wax. The latter is thickly applied so a strip of cloth is no longer necessary.
This form of hair removal became popular since it can be used in any part of the body. In addition, waxing doesn’t cause prolonged pain and does not lead to redness or irritation. All you need is to do is find the right salon that can give you the best waxing treatment you deserve.
Meanwhile, epilator is a device used to remove unwanted hair mechanically by grasping multiple hairs simultaneously and pulling them out. Most often it is electric in nature but recent inventions used for sensitive parts of the body doesn’t require power supply. As compared to waxing, the use of epilator does not remove cells from the epithelium of the epidermis. However, it is not recommended for those who have sensitive skin as it may cause irritation. But what’s good about using an epilator is the convenience. Since it is a machine, you can bring it with you wherever you go.
It is recommended by professionals that women go through professional waxing first to get rid of the pain that could come from first epilation of a particular area. After waxing, regrowth can be followed up with the use of an epilator.
Summary:
1.Waxing doesn’t cause prolonged pain while the use of an epilator can be very painful especially during initial epilation.
2.Waxing doesn’t cause irritation and can be applied to any parts of the body whereas epilator might not be suited for sensitive skin due to possible irritation.
3.Waxing must be done professionally in a trusted salon while the epilator provides convenience since it is a machine that you can bring and use almost anywhere.
