IPL Hair Removal

The ideal of beauty changes from one generation to another, but there has always been one constant for thousands of years. Women desire smooth, hairless skin, especially as the season for shorts and sexy tops approaches. In ancient Rome, the absence of body hair was a sign of social class. In ancient Egypt, women removed hair using pumice stones, tweezers made from shells, or for the very wealthy, even wax or a mixture of burnt sugar. Who are we to oppose a trend that started 5000 years ago? Here are the top 5 best hair removal methods we’ve compiled for you:

IPL Hair Removal
Believe it or not, we owe this modern technological blessing to Einstein. His studies on laser applications were continued by other researchers, and in 1997, the first hair removal laser was approved in the USA. The difference between a laser and the IPL device, which has become much more popular lately, is the type of light used. Initially, IPL treatments were extremely expensive and could only be done in medical salons, but the technology has rapidly advanced, and now there are home-use IPL devices. The Swedish beauty tech brand Foreo recently introduced two portable solutions, the Peach 2 and Peach 2 go. So, you don’t go to the salon; the salon comes with you on vacation. In just 10 minutes, you can get rid of unwanted hair on your face and body. The Foreo Peach 2 go uses intense pulsed light to send hair follicles into a dormant state, stopping growth for a long period. This IPL also dilates pores, increasing their exposure to light pulses.Advantages:
Unlike lasers, IPL is effective even on light skin with dark hair, and also targets light brown hair.
Completely pain-free. For example, the Foreo Peach 2 go includes a cooling system for your comfort.
Disadvantages:
Initially, it is a more costly method. However, if you calculate the long-term costs, you’ll see that the investment pays off quickly.
Hard to find other disadvantages. It is a must-have for any woman who wants to look perfect.
Waxing
Until 40 years ago, before the advent of electric epilators or lasers, waxing was the most efficient method of removing unwanted hair. A mixture of wax and paraffin heated and then applied to the desired area is ripped off against the direction of hair growth.Advantages:
Skin remains smooth for weeks.
Waxing also acts as an exfoliator, lightening the skin by half a tone.
Disadvantages:
Not recommended for pregnant women or those with varicose veins.
The skin loses elasticity due to the tearing action of the wax, leading to quicker wrinkle formation.
Electric Epilator
The electric epilator entered our lives in 1986, and for a few years, it was the most modern beauty device until lasers took the lead in 1997. If you need a quick touch-up, the electric epilator is your best friend.Advantages:
Can be used at home.
Removes hair for several weeks.
Disadvantages:
Hair may break and then grow under the skin.
Time-consuming if you want to epilate larger areas like legs.
Sugaring
Invented by the Egyptians, who used a mixture made from water, sugar, and lemon juice, sugaring has retained its place among luxury hair removal methods. There are salons that specialize in this type of hair removal, proving that the method is still trendy.Advantages:
A 100% natural solution.
Less painful than waxing or using an electric epilator.
Disadvantages:
High cost.
Long duration of a session.
Threading
A hair removal method used by the Persians 5000 years ago remains relevant today, especially when it comes to shaping eyebrows. Unwanted hairs are plucked from the root with the help of a special cotton thread, used like a lasso.Advantages:
Thanks to the thread, you can also remove fine hairs around the eyebrows and shape them perfectly.
No risk of infection.
Disadvantages:
Fairly difficult to learn.
