Keep Up Your Waxing Routine All Year Long

Everyone wants to get rid of unwanted hair, and waxing is one of the most economical and effective ways of getting it done. But people often forget about waxing in the winter because it’s easier to hide unwanted hair. However, you’ll want to keep up that waxing routine even throughout the winter. Here’s why.

Waxing removes hair at the root. Unlike shaving or hair removal creams that cut off the hair at the surface, waxing pulls each unwanted hair out at the root. That means that the hair follicle, or root, has to regrow before the hair can regrow, which is why waxing lasts so much longer than shaving. Each time that follicle is removed, it grows back weaker, so hairs are thinner and easier to remove with each waxing session. When you skip a session or two and shave instead, you give that follicle time to become stronger. In fact, sometimes hair even stops growing in areas that are treated regularly.

That’s why it’s so important to keep up your waxing routine, even if you feel like you can cover up that unwanted hair in the winter. Regular waxing appointments make this hair removal technique even more effective, quicker, and easier. Here are some other benefits for waxing over shaving and other hair removal options.

No cuts and scrapes. You’ll avoid the cuts and scrapes you can get from shaving, which are unsightly and can even lead to infection and other issues.

Exfoliating. When the wax is removed, so is the outer layer of dead skin cells and pollutants. That encourages better skin cell rejuvenation and collagen production as well as helps moisturizers and skin treatments penetrate better and are more effective.

Long-lasting. With a razor, you’ll feel stubble as soon as the next day. Waxing removes hair for about three to six weeks.

Less hassle. Because it lasts so long, waxing is less hassle than shaving, which has to be done much more often.

Economical. Compared with more expensive treatments like laser hair removal, waxing is an economical option to get rid of that unwanted hair.
