The option of chest hair removal for a man isn’t something that just bodybuilders do anymore.

For a man chest hair removal might be desirable for several reasons.

While professional bodybuilders and other athletes (ie. swimmers) often have a real need to remove unwanted chest hair for performance reasons, regular guys are increasingly turning to various methods to get rid of their excess chest hair, too.

For a man, chest hair removal might be a result of a personal desire to achieve the type of hair free bodies we see in advertising all the time or it could simply be a desire to have a chest with less hair than you have now.

Due to the large area that generally gets treated during chest hair removal, several main options are available for men that could offer medium to long term hair removal with repeated treatments.

There are many methods available for removing unwanted hair.

Temporary solutions include depilatory creams, waxing, threading, tweezing and shaving. More permanent solutions when it comes to hair removal are electrolysis and laser hair removal, both of which are permanent, and should only be considered when permanent hair removal is what you seek, as it will not grow back.

1. Depilatory Creams: Depilatory creams break down the hair follicle at the surface of the skin. Once the cream is applied, it takes approximately 5-15 minutes to dissolve the hair. Depilatory creams are a temporary solution to removing hair. It is best to test patch any type of depilatory cream as many people have skin sensitivity to these creams.

2. Waxing: Waxing is a temporary means of getting rid of unwanted hair. Hot wax is applied to the skin and removed with a cloth pulling the hair from the root. Once the hair is removed by the root, it will take approximately 3-4 weeks to grow back.

3. Threading: Threading is a technique which involves a string which pulls the hair from the root. Many women use threading for the eyebrows and face. This is not a Continue Reading…

Pubic hair removal is now a matter of concern for both men and women. For hygiene reasons alone many individuals choose to remove unwanted body hair in the pubic area, hence, the search for the best pubic hair removal method.

Waxing is one very popular method. It is inexpensive, it can be done from home, and the results last for some weeks in many cases.

Use these tips to get the best results if you choose to use waxing as your pubic hair removal method of choice:

• Avoid showering and making the hair wet prior to waxing. Hair absorbs the water making it soft and less likely to adhere well to the wax. Tough hair is easier to pull off.
• Be sure to test a small area of skin first to make sure there is no acute sensitivity or allergic reaction to pubic hair removal using waxing.
• Hair should be at least 1/8 inch long. If it isn’t wait until it reaches this length.
• Be sure to wash the skin thoroughly and dry it well beforehand to remove any lotions or oils which may prevent the wax from adhering closely to the skin.
• Heat the wax carefully so as not to overheat and thus burn the skin when applying. Test on a small area first.
• The consistency should be soft rather than runny.
• If pain and discomfort is a main concern use a pain reducing gel or cream available from pharmacists. These solutions should be applied 30 to 60 minutes before waxing so the skin is numbed beforehand.
• Apply a thin layer of wax in the direction of the hair growth and peel back with a rapid movement close to the skin.
• Do not pull up or out, rather pull back.
• Clean the skin with a warm moist towel afterwards to remove excess wax.
• Avoid wearing tight clothing over freshly waxed areas to minimize the risk of irritation and ingrown hairs. 24-48 hours after pubic hair removal waxing, exfoliate the skin (with a Loofa sponge for example) to prevent the dead skin from accumulating and causing hair to become ingrown.

Best Positions When Performing A Waxing Pubic Hair Removal Session:

• Option 1: Sit in a chair with your feet up above your waist and legs spread apart.
• Option 2. Sit with one leg propped above your waist and the other leg resting on the floor.
• Option 3. Lie on your back with legs wide apart and raised in the air so that all the waxable areas are spread taut.
• Option 4. Lie on your side with the bottom leg straight out and the top leg bent at the knee and tucked behind the straight leg.
• Option 5. Bend the knees and keep the legs wide apart so the genital areas are easy to work on. Put a mirror on the ground if necessary for better control.
