Permanent Hair Removal vs. Hair Waxing

Hair removal is an ever popular trend in the last millennia and will likely to continue. Today you can find various types of centres that offer various types of hair removal services and if you are on a strict budget line, you can opt for DIY home hair removal waxing kit in which you can do it at the comfort of your home. There are various types of hair removal and we will explore the popular ones in details.


EPILATORS & DEPILATORIES
First there’s a hair removal applicator such as epilators and depilatories which if can buy over the counters and they are a good options to keep you hair free for quite a while. However, it is not for people with low pain threshold especially in sensitive parts of your body and moreover, you might need to repeat the process over and over again. So it is a pain that you need to constantly endure over a long period of time. The verdict: People who purchase these hair removal applicator will eventually uses it for a short period of time and often discard them when they have decided that it is too painful or tiring to carry on.


HAIR WAXING
When it comes to waxing, it is definitely less painful compared with using home applicators but are often messier especially those home kits waxing products. Most wax uses the same basic ingredients such as paraffin or beeswax, resin and lubricants. The resin acts as an adhesive and lubricants are used for smooth hair removal.


There is 2 different type of waxing, hot and cold. The difference between both of these is the temperature at which it is applied onto the skin. With hot wax, the wax is applied on the skin before a cloth strip which will be peeled off when the temperature starts to cool down.



With cold waxing, the wax is already adhesive in solid state. (Think of it like semi dry sticky glue). Same thing, cold wax strips are applied directly to the skin and pressed down in the same director of hair growth and are peeled off in the opposite direction. Most home wax kits comes are cold waxing as it is easier to do and less hassle than warm wax but nevertheless also less effective.


Whether doing cold or warm wax, one agrees that this repetitious procedure can be quite expensive in long term and often, the continuous painful cycle especially when one is doing bikini area.


NANNOLIGHT HAIR REMOVAL
Over the cause of time, there is a treatment that is pleasantly bearable but better still the outcome is more permanently. Using intensive light pulse technology, the light is shot directly into the hair follicles or the roots and destroys it leaving little chance for re-growth. As hair removal is on the rise, NannoLight is the way to go. If you are considering getting your hair remove, you can consider this.

What I personally like about the NannoLight is that it comes with double-layer filtration filters that protect the skin from being damaged or burned. Also, the NannoLight is “Top Hat” design with extreme low temperature cooling plates (-10 Celsius) which means it can cover wider areas in shorter time and far lesser compared with permanent hair removal equipment.




The NannoLight is one of hair removal technology that is approved by the FDA.  It just takes about 5 minutes for underarms or just about 10 minutes for the leg. That is why NannoLight is considered as a lunch time treatment whereby you do not really need to spend too much time.

Slim & Trim is located in Selangor, Malaysia is one of few centres that offers NannoLight services at an affordable price and warm staff that helps make the procedure a pleasant one. The underarm comes also with pampering relaxing scrub and mask which is a pretty an exhilarating experience. Whether expatriates, tourist or locals, Slim & Trim has been operating for over 29 years and is the place to check out whether one is are seeking results and a good time.
