✨ Methods for Hair Removal (No Waxing)
- Shaving: The quickest way. Use a sharp razor and a moisturizing shaving cream to avoid irritation.
- Depilatory Creams: These creams use chemicals to dissolve the hair at the surface. Always do a patch test first to check for skin sensitivity.
- Epilation: An electronic device called an epilator pulls hair from the root. It lasts longer than shaving (up to 4 weeks).
- Sugaring (Natural): Similar to waxing but uses a paste made of sugar, lemon, and water. It is often less painful and better for sensitive skin.
- Laser Hair Removal: A professional long-term solution that uses light pulses to destroy the hair follicle.
- IPL (Intense Pulsed Light): Similar to laser, but available in handheld devices for home use.
