Take hair removal, for example. I can't have been the only one told that shaving would make my hair grow back even thicker and stronger. But does it? Not according to Chloe Scriminger, head trainer at boutique salon chain Ministry of Waxing. Well, not exactly, that is. But that's not to say shaving doesn't make any difference to the hair that grows back. So while your regrowth may not actually be thicker or stronger, it can certainly feel like it. So what are the options if you're bored of stubble?
Scriminger says waxing can be done when the hair shaft is at 6 millimetres, which is about 10 days to two weeks after shaving. When hair grows back after waxing, the new tip usually means it feels softer and finer than after shaving. For a more permanent removal solution, look to the laser: "It works by light converting to heat energy in the dermis and cutting off the blood supply to the dermal papillae ceasing the hair to grow," says Scriminger, and can show permanent results in six sessions.
Still in love with shaving? Keep scrolling to find out how to get the smoothest shave possible. A bit of light exfoliation before shaving will ensure that hairs are freed from the skin. And by removing excess dead or dry skin, you'll get the closest shave possible. Sure, you can lather up with your regular bodywash before reaching for the razor, but shaving creams usually have special skin-soothing ingredients.
If you're scared of razor burn, look out for built-in moisturisers and skin soothers like aloe vera. A blunt blade can do serious damage too, so make sure you rinse yours in hot, clean water and change it regularly.
