Which is Better For My Skin? Waxing or Hair Removal Cream

Waxing and hair removal creams are the two most prominent depilatory methods to get rid of unwanted hair on the body. Find out the pros and cons of each method to help select the best technique for your skin.

There are many options available in the market for the removal of unwanted hair from the skin or face such as shaving, plucking, hair removal cream, waxing etc. But when it comes to ease and reliability of the technique only two names come to everyone’s mind – waxing and hair removal creams. If you are in confusion or struggling to get convinced that which one works better for you, here are some criteria that you may consider.

How does hair-removal cream works?

Hair removal creams have certain chemicals that help you get rid of unwanted hair by making them dissolve in the shaft. This is the best option when you don’t have time and is indeed the quickest and painless approach to hair removal. It is always recommended to try the hair removal cream on a small area first before applying it all over.

How does waxing works?

Waxing is one of the oldest yet the most popular and natural method of hair removal where hot/cold wax is applied to the skin and hair pulled off. Waxing works by pulling the hair directly from the roots and is touted as the best technique for longer results. If you have stubborn, thick and coarse hair on your legs, bikini area or underarms; waxing should be your ultimate choice.

Pros of Hair removal cream

·         Any hair length

Hair removal creams can work on any hair length, unlike waxing where you need good growth (atleast a quarter of an inch) for best results. You don’t have to wait for hair to grow to remove them while using any depilatory creams.

·         No ingrown hair

Waxing, if not done professionally can result in ingrown hair. There is no such problem with hair removal creams.

·         100% Painless

Hair removal creams are practically painless unless you are sensitive to the chemical used in them. Always try on a small patch before applying, to test for any rashes, allergy or irritation. If you have any cream allergies, waxing is best for you.

Cons of Hair removal cream

·         Unpleasant Odour

Most of the depilatory creams are known for their unpleasant odour coming from the chemicals used. The bad odour usually disappears after the area is washed with water.

·         Side Effects

If you have sensitive skin, there is a probability that the chemicals may harm your skin leaving behind rashes, irritation and damaged skin. On the other hand, waxing is suitable for all skin types and leaves the skin soft and smooth. Also, the skin might be prone to darkening or discoloration with a depilatory cream.

·         Does not guarantee long-lasting results

You may get instant and painless results with hair removal creams, but these results are short-lived. You may need to apply the cream after every week to get constant results. On the other hand, waxing gives you more sustainable results around a month and significantly lowers your hair growth. So, fewer waxing sessions are required as compared to creams.

Why you should prefer professional waxing services than hair removal creams?

If you weigh the pros and cons of the two techniques, professional waxing from the best salon in Toronto is an ideal option. Here are some additional advantages of choosing professional aroma waxing as your main hair removal method.

·         Removes dead skin cells

Getting waxing done by professionals or from the best skincare salon in Toronto, not only removes your unwanted hair but exfoliates the skin as well. Aroma waxing removes the dead skin layer from your skin and adds a fresh layer thereby making your skin smooth, glowing and younger-looking.

·         Long-lasting results

Waxing, whether hot, cold, soft or hard, is the best natural hair removal technique for long-lasting results. It pulls the hair from the roots thereby weakening the follicles. Continued action makes the hair follicles weaker resulting in less or thin hair growth.

·         Face Hair removal

When it comes to the removal of hair from public areas or face, waxing is one of the safest options available today. But, make sure you get it done by a qualified and best esthetician in Toronto.

Finally,

Both waxing and hair removal creams are the best methods for removing unwanted hair. The choice depends on your tolerance levels for pain, hair growth rate and preference. Need waxing done?
