Unwanted hair can be a real problem. It can also damage your self-esteem but, thankfully, help is at hand. Shaving just seems to make the problem worse, but waxing will remove hair from the root and the area will remain free from new hair for 3 to 8 weeks. Waxing technology has progressed too and it has become the number 1 choice for hair removal amongst Irish women. It doesn’t take long to do, just make an appointment at your nearest Depilève salon and your skin will be smooth, soft and free from hair for weeks to come.
We can remove hair from almost any part of your body with waxing, but the most common areas for women are:
- Face, including eyebrow, lip, chin & sides of face.
- Bikini line, Brazilian, Hollywood & Californian.
The experts recommend:
Depilève
Depilève is the most popular wax in the world and it’s available in Depilève salon.
- Traditional hot wax is perfect if you have sensitive skin. A thick layer of soft wax is applied and this dries while remaining supple so that it can be removed without the aid of strips..
- Strip wax, or warm wax, is a faster method for larger areas (legs, etc). It uses cooler waxes that can be applied thinly and then removed using a specific non-woven fabric strip.
- Film Wax is exclusive to Depilève and it combines all the advantages of traditional and strip waxing. Although the wax is applied thinly it is removed without using strips - It sticks perfectly to the hair and is very gentle on the skin.
- Intimate waxing is very popular but it must be done with products that have been specially adapted to this area, such as Depilève’s Intimate Range, to ensure a gentle, effective and long lasting treatment.
Our top tips on waxing:
- Try to keep your skin well moisturised. If your skin is too dry, waxing can be uncomfortable and the hairs might break. Use a good body moisturiser daily which will make your skin look and feel great.
- Go to your nearest Depilève salon and ask about the many aftercare products that inhibit hair growth. Specifically, consider Depilève’s Gold Concentrate and Depil Mousse dual action hair inhibitors and Folisan that treats and prevents ingrown hairs.
Talk to your skincare therapist and always make sure you follow their specific recommendations for care before and after your treatment.
