Does armpit waxing hurt?
It is difficult to give a clear answer to this question – the feeling of pain always depends on individual characteristics and many factors. First of all, your pain threshold is important, but the thickness of the hair, the condition of the skin, and even the day of the cycle 😉
Very often, clients come to us for armpit hair removal after having experience (often many years) of shaving hair with a razor. Unfortunately, then the hairs are definitely strong, thick, and the hair bulbs are firmly embedded under the skin. Then depilation may be painful the first time, but with each subsequent treatment it gets much better 😉
We also have our own ways to deal with pain – our experienced cosmetics will tell you during the treatment how to properly tighten the skin to significantly reduce discomfort. And most importantly – we offer armpit hair removal with our original wax, Magic Wax!
Magic Wax – the sigma among waxes 😉
For depilation of the most sensitive parts of the body – including armpits – we use our own wax – Magic Wax. It is made on the basis of beeswax, so it is 100% natural. Compared to standard wax, it is more flexible – it only sticks to the hair, not to the skin, so the pain is really minimal! It is a stripless wax, which means that we do not use any other materials for the treatment. After applying to the skin, Magic Wax hardens and the beautician removes the wax and hairs with a decisive and efficient movement. Easy!
When depilating your armpits, it is worth choosing Magic Wax, because it reduces the risk of irritation to almost zero and the skin regenerates much faster. If your skin is particularly sensitive, then Magic Wax will be the best choice 😉
How to prepare for armpit hair removal?
Waxing does not require much preparation from you 😉 However, to enhance the effectiveness of the treatment, it is worth following a few recommendations:
- Your hairs should be between 0.5 cm and 1 cm.
Hair length is crucial, on the one hand, for the effectiveness of hair removal, but also for your comfort. Removing hair longer than 1 cm will expose you to unpleasant pain and
may cause serious irritation. Unfortunately, hair shorter than 0.5 cm will not stick to the wax and will not be pulled out properly, which means that the depilation will be ineffective. That’s why it’s important to take care of the optimal hair length 😉
- The day before the treatment, exfoliate your armpits.
It is worth introducing peeling into your care routine – your body will thank you for it 😉 In the context of hair removal, peeling is important because it removes dead skin and helps ingrown hairs to emerge above the surface of the skin – thanks to this, the wax catches them better and you can enjoy the effect of maximum smoothness!
- Do not use creams or deodorant on the day of the procedure.
Skin covered with cosmetics prevents the wax from effectively sticking to the hair. Additionally, the skin may be irritated after using a deodorant due to the ingredients it contains.
