Modern cosmetology does not stop progressing and offers the modern woman many options for removing unwanted body hair, including the opportunity to deal with them forever.
Depilation of the intimate area is a delicate controversial issue.
Gynecologists, most often oppose a deep bikini. It is believed that hair protects reproductive organs from infection and support the necessary microflora.
Although this part of the body is always hidden from prying eyes, yet many girls prefer to remove hair completely. This gives them a feeling of confidence, comfort and cleanliness. And no unexpected infections, assure lover of the "Brazilian bikini"!

But not every girl decides to entrust the delicate procedure to a stranger, so she chooses one of the methods and successfully performs the depilation of the intimate zone in her native walls. Common methods for performing depilation of the intimate zone at home are:

Every woman has a proven favorite method of dealing with inappropriate vegetation. Some people prefer a banal shave or gentle depilation with special creams, others who are ready to suffer a little for the sake of a more lasting smooth skin effect, are taken to conquer wax and sugar.
All these types of depilation of intimate areas are absolutely safe to perform at home. A large assortment of razors, depilatory creams and wax sets can please any supermarket. In addition, the prices of these groups of products do not bite at all.
Forewarned is forearmed!
All procedures and preparations that will affect your body, directly or indirectly, will also affect your health. The skin of intimate places is especially delicate and sensitive, so when you decide to do the depilation, carefully study the technique of execution, read all the available instructions and do all the necessary tests.
Elementary failure to observe the rules of hygiene and safety can lead to both minor problems and serious irreversible consequences. Forewarned is forearmed, as they say.
Even if you have already read everything about this, it will be useful to once again familiarize yourself with the strengths, weaknesses and techniques of performing possible depilation options for the intimate area at home.
Shaving
This "bloody" method, despite all its flaws, is the most common. It's simple - you need a razor and cosmetic in the form of a gel or foam.
Shaving in the intimate area is better to get a razor with a "floating head." He repeats all the contours of the body, leaving no chance for a single hair. The main thing is that the razor should have one owner!
The procedure is best carried out in time for a shower. Apply the right amount of a special shaving gel or a regular shower gel to damp skin and carefully follow the direction of hair growth, ruthlessly get rid of them with the help of a sharp razor.
After a shower, wipe your skin dry and you can use a moisturizer. In case of cuts, treat the wounds with hydrogen peroxide.
Preferring shaving, get ready to grow hair again and again. It will be necessary to get down to business once in two - three days. It is hardly possible to avoid irritations and cuts. The advantages of this ungrateful procedure can be attributed to the absence of ingrown hairs.
Depilatory creams
Many fans have found a method of depilation of intimate areas at home with the help of special creams. Store shelves are full of a variety of depilatory creams for different parts of the body, including the bikini area.
After reading in advance on the Internet customer reviews about the product of interest, you can quickly determine the choice. The cream itself is a chemical composition that can effectively remove unwanted hairs and slow down their subsequent growth.
Mandatory procedure procedure - do not neglect the test for an allergic reaction. In the absence of redness on the skin after a few hours, go to the depilation. Apply the cream evenly over the entire skin area with unwanted hair.
We maintain the time specified in the instructions. Movement against the growth of hair, using a special spatula from the kit, remove the cream with the hairs. Wash off residues with warm water. In addition, to moisturize the skin, most likely, will not be necessary, since the composition usually has a caring complex of substances.
The result of the depilatory cream can be enjoyed in about 7 days. The main disadvantage of such depilation is the appearance of ingrown hairs.
Wax depilation
Once, having the courage to wax a bikini to depilate, you hardly want to pick up a razor again. A bit painful the first few times, but the result compensates for temporary discomfort. Hair does not dare to seem about three weeks.
To perform the procedure of depilation of the intimate zone at home with wax can be done in several ways:
- Apply hot wax. We buy a jar of special wax for depilation, heat the substance to 60 ° C and begin to act. Carefully put the wax on known parts of the body with small scones and ruthlessly tear it along with the hairs. The direction of movement - against the growth of hair.
- Apply warm wax. In this case, you will need a special set consisting of wax, special napkins and an instrument called wax-melt. Wax, melted in waxing to 40 ° C, is applied evenly on the skin using the same universal device. On the waxed area of the skin impose a napkin and against the growth of hair it is sharply torn off.
- Use wax strips. The method is simple. In the nearest supermarket we get a set of wax strips for the bikini area and act according to simple instructions.
The wax residue after the procedure must be removed with any vegetable oil or special oil wipes. After waxing with wax, contact with water is not recommended for the first 8 to 10 hours. The main disadvantage is the possible appearance of ingrown hairs.
Shugaring
This modern name is the procedure - sugar depilation. It is performed using a special paste, the main component of which is sugar. The paste consistency resembles a thick caramel syrup. Enough sticky stuff!
Shugaring is identical to waxing and according to the technique and results. The only advantage of depilation of the intimate area with sugar over wax is that the paste does not require heating.
Electric depilator
The method of depilation by plucking out irrelevant hairs as old as the world. The problem of plucking large sections of hair with tweezers was solved with the help of an invention of a device called an electric depilator.
Many girls consider this method of hair removal convenient and effective, but few people like to use the device in intimate areas. The process itself is quite time consuming and painful. Fast moving tweezers badly injure the skin, and droplets of blood may protrude at the site of the removed hairs. The appearance of hairs can be seen in 3-4 weeks.
SOS! Body care after depilation of the intimate area at home
Skin after any type of depilation requires special attention and special care. The skin in the intimate area is very sensitive and capricious. After depilation, it is recommended to spend an hour or two without underwear, so as not to cause additional irritation.
Compulsory to apply soothing cosmetic and therapeutic action. Chlorhexidine is a good available antiseptic for treating skin after shaving, bio-depilating and using the epilator.
During the first 1-2 days it is better not to expose the body to natural or artificial tan. To combat the effect of ingrown hairs, starting from 3-4 days after the depilation of the intimate area at home, it is necessary to conduct regular, gentle skin peeling.
