subject: Tip And Guide For Waxing Facial Hair [print this page] Our faces are the first thing that people see and continue to look at when interacting. It cannot be hid from view, unlike other parts of your body, under clothing. Therefore many individuals take great pains to ensure that they are then presenting "their best face to the world", literally. Unwanted facial hair is a great embarrassment, particularly to the women. The best, most quick and efficient way of getting rid of this cause for embarrassment is through waxing.
Waxing facial hair can be done by yourself at the discretion of your own home. The hairs need to be of a certain length in order for the wax to grab them when waxing facial hair. Let the hairs grow for about three weeks or up until it is decidedly long enough to wax.
Hair particularly on the upper lip could be embarrassing so therefore was it as soon as it's of appropriate length. Prior to waxing facial hair, exfoliate the skin regularly as this would help the wax penetrate deeper into the pore of the hair follicles and remove them from the root and prevent ingrowths in the future.
The next step in waxing facial hair is to obtain some facial hair wax. There are two types of hair wax; hot wax and cold wax. Many rely on hot wax to pull out unwanted hairs as the heat of the wax enlarges the pores enabling the hair to be waxed of easily.
It is important to conduct a "skin test" prior to use of the waxing product. Take a little bit of the wax and test in on a small patch on your arm. This would enable you to see if the wax chosen reacts in any way adversely to your skin. Once the skin test has been satisfactorily complete, we can move on to waxing facial hair.
Apply the wax on the areas concerned and immediately press a cloth strip to it and press it down so that the cloth lies smooth against the skin. Wait for two seconds and quickly pull off the strip, with it removing the wax and the hair from your face. Generally the waxing strips are removed in the direction that goes against the hair growth, but as there is no particular direction of hair growth on the face, the same area may need to be repeatedly waxed in different directions to remove all the hair.
When waxing facial hair, treat only one side at a give time, and when waxing the chin or upper lip, wax them one side at a time. Right after waxing, there could appear to be some redness around the waxed areas. Apply some Aloe or facial lotion to alleviate some of the redness. The skin would be back to normal given a few hours.
Waxing facial hair is easy and convenient as it takes weeks at a time to grow back rather than the growth after shaving, and as facial hair is one of the most bothersome areas of unwanted hair for women, the longer the hair stays away the better.
