At Trixies Salon & Spa, our goal is for every client to leave feeling rejuvenated and revitalized. One service we love providing our clients is body waxing — everything from arms to the bikini area to legs and underarms.
The benefits of body waxing are many, but ultimately, it gets rid of unwanted body hair and keeps it off for a lengthy period of time. Who wouldn’t want that?
Getting a body wax can help you save money in the long run, too, because you won't have to buy razors or shaving creams on a regular basis. Also, over time, regular waxing can actually reduce hair growth, meaning you’ll need to get a wax less often.
Here are a few of the other top reasons why getting a body wax can be worth your time and money:
1. Give yourself a break from ingrown hairs
One of the biggest benefits of body waxing is that it prevents ingrown hairs, which are caused by the hair curling back into the skin, leading to bumps and irritation. Ingrown hairs often happen because when you shave, the blade cuts off part of each strand at an angle. When the hair grows back up again, it pokes through into surrounding tissue instead of emerging on top where we want them to.
These pesky hairs can be a major problem for people with sensitive skin or who have coarse hair that grows in different directions. Body waxing removes hair from its root, so you're less likely to experience this.
Keep in mind that, though less common, ingrown hairs can still occur with waxing. The best way to prevent them is to exfoliate two days before waxing and to use proper pre- and post-wax care.
2. Wax it and forget it
Once you've waxed, you won't have to worry about hair removal for several weeks, because hair grows back slower after a wax. Waxing also makes hair grow back thinner than it would if you were just shaving with a razor. This makes it a great option for people who are always on the go and don't have time for daily shaving.
In addition, unlike shaving, which can cause irritation and ingrown hairs, body waxing removes hair from the root. This means that there's less regrowth and less maintenance involved in keeping up with your look.
3. Get the smooth skin of your dreams
Waxing not only removes hair but also exfoliates the skin, which leaves it feeling softer and smoother. This is because waxing removes dead skin cells along with the hair, leaving your skin looking and feeling more radiant. And since waxing can serve as a form of exfoliation, your resulting smooth skin can last for up to a month. Say no more!
Ultimately, when it comes to hair removal, body waxing is an excellent option. If you’re looking for a way to remove unwanted hair from your body without having to deal with razor blades or lasers, then we recommend giving this service a try.
