Well you can either call it the joy or the curse of being a woman. There are so many demands that society has placed on women when it comes to grooming and stuff. On one end of the body our men want us to have the longest hair that you have seen and they do not care what you do make it so. But when it comes to areas, some of which we consider private, we are expected to completely hairless. And the men are expected to have body hair and none on the head, what a world?

Waxing Terminologies
Waxing refers to a hair removal process that is very common today. And because it is a popular method it looks like there terms that are used euphemistically to refer to areas that many people may not want to mention too much in public. Two of these terms to consider are bikini waxing and Brazilian waxing.
Bikini waxing refers to the removal of unwanted hair in areas that are normally covered by a bikini bottom: the pubic area, thighs, and inner thighs. This is the more common of the two terms and is process most women do especially in the summer months.
Brazilian waxing is a much more intimate process as it refers to removal of hair from the areas that surround the genitalia, the perineum, and in the cleft of the buttocks. The term comes from Brazil where high rise thong bathing suits and g-strings are quite common on the beaches and so that necessitates the thorough removal of hair.
Waxing Tips:
* It is a very simple procedure this waxing and sugaring procedure. You simply apply the wax product, place a fabric over the wax, rub it a few times to smooth it out and press it to the hairs then pull it off along the unwanted hair. But then for the best results there are a few tips you may need to know to avoid any possible injury.
* You will need to always check the temperature of the wax before you apply it to the skin. Various heating methods have varying temperatures whereas some waxes may require more heat than others. You will have to double check the heat of the wax before it touches your skin. This applies to sensitive areas like the underarms and the bikini area. Also be careful not to topple the heating pots as they can easily harm you.
* Cleanse the area thoroughly before waxing. Ensure the area is washed with soap and water before you apply the wax. The reason is wax adheres better to clean dry skin and dirt or dead skin cells can lead to blemishes if the wax gets to the pores and traps then there.
* Use an astringent on the area before the wax is applied. The body’s natural oils serve the purpose of lubricating the skin and keeping your body hair in good form. However, if any oil is trapped in the body it means that wax will not hold on to the hair for removal. Alcohol works as a good astringent and will make hair removal easier.
* Use some talcum powder on sensitive skin areas especially when doing a Brazilian wax. After you have cleaned the area and used the astringent to remove any oils then apply some light talcum powder to keep the wax from sticking too hard on your skin.
* Do not try too much just at one time. Many people make the mistake of trying too large an area the first time. You need to make a few passes and move on progressively. When you try waxing a very big area you end up with too much pain. So do your waxing in small manageable bits.
* Remove any long hair by trimming before you begin the waxing process. When the hair is too long it becomes matted and the results are not going to be uniform at all. This can also increase the amount of pain. Anything more than ½ inches needs to be trimmed first.
* For you to get a clean line, comb hair away from line. By combing the hair away from the edges before applying the wax you ensure a more accurate application of the wax and a clean line when you are finished with the job.
* Remember also that you need to gold the skin tight before removing the wax strip. Having even tension before removing the strip makes the process less painful. By holding it taut you prevent a rippling effect and uneven pulling of the hairs.
* When pulling the fabric, you need to do it against the direction of hair growth, this way you will pull the hair from their roots. When you pull in the direction the hair grows you make it likely that hair will escape from the wax as it is pulled along the shaft.
* As you pull the fabric from the skin, do it rather quickly. The fabric strip that is used in wax hair removal should be pulled with quick even strokes. This is not a situation where you go slowly.
Following the above simple and straight forward tips will give you better results from your waxing endeavors. You will also find the experience to be less painful. But at the end of the day remember when your hand is sure and steady it will hurt much less, so take time to prepare for your actions.How To Naturally Regrow Lost Hair Click Here!
