Recipes for hair removal How to shave properly

Shaving is one of the most popular ways to get rid of unnecessary vegetation on the body. From other methods of hair removal it is favorably distinguished by cheapness, quickness and simplicity of performance, due to what it fits perfectly into the busy schedule of a modern busy woman.

Unfortunately, the effectiveness of shaving is inferior to laser and wax epilation, but with the help of simple tricks you can improve its effectiveness and save results for a longer time. So, before you take on the shaving machine, follow these instructions:

* Prepare yourself. Take a hot shower. Hot steam opens the pores on the skin, softens the hair, from which you want to get rid, which generally facilitates the subsequent shaving.

* Perform skin cleansing. Cleansing the skin before shaving helps to prevent dirt and hair follicles from getting into the pores and, therefore, to avoid the formation of unaesthetic red pimples on the skin.

Execute the peeling. Peeling exfoliates dead skin cells and prevents hair growth. Peeling before shaving - pledge smooth as velvet skin after the procedure!

* Brete. Smooth circular movements apply to the skin shaving cream. Shaving cream is important to use because it encircles the hair and lifts it. Moisten the shaver and slide it over the skin in a long linear motion. Do not press too hard, otherwise you risk cutting yourself. In addition, try not to conduct the blade on the same skin area more than once. You can avoid this in two ways: if you need a super-clean shave, shave against the direction of hair growth. On the other hand, if you want to hedge against cuts and ingrown hair, shave in the direction of hair growth. It is best to first try both ways to find out which one is right for you.

* Do not forget about moisturizing. Shaving always harms the skin; Along with hair you lose the natural protective layer of the skin. That is why it is so important after shaving to apply on the skin an unromomed moisturizer.

To improve the results ...

- Use a razor with several blades. So you can improve the shaving cleanliness and reduce the amount of touch to the skin. Now on the market you can find machines with 4 blades, so when choosing a machine, carefully read the information on the packaging, so as not to be mistaken.

- Throw away the disposable razors. Blades and razors of poor quality leave more cuts and scratches.

- In the process of shaving, rinse the blades several times in hot water to avoid clogging and the formation of cuts. Do not forget to rinse the blades after the procedure.

- Blades in the shaving machine should be changed after 5 - 6 shaving sessions.

Alternative to shaving: depilatory creams

The effect of using depilatory creams is not as long as the waxing effect, but it lasts longer than the result of shaving. Depilatory creams contain active alkaline ingredients that destroy the hair in the root. They can be applied to the skin of the legs, armpits and even a bikini line. After using depilatory creams, the skin remains incredibly smooth and velvety, and the price makes them available to every woman!
