Hair removal

Hair removal – removing unwanted hair on the body and face – is something most people have a relationship with and perform from time to time. There are many different ways to remove body hair, and hair removal can be easily carried out at home with products for the body and face.

Hair removal - different methods

Hair removal is practiced by both women and men, primarily because many people have hair and hair growth in places where they would prefer to be free of hair.

There are many different methods for removing hair on the body and face. Some methods are easy to perform at home, while others are reserved for skin care salons and professional skin care professionals.

It is important to find an effective method of hair removal that works for you and your skin, so that the hair removal goes as smoothly and painlessly as possible. Some methods also suit certain parts of the body or the face better than others, so it may be a good idea to research which method you should choose before you start, especially if the method you are going to test is expensive.

Body hair removal

Hair removal on the body can be done in several different ways. If you want to remove hair quickly and easily on your own, we have several products that can help you on your way to successful hair removal.

Shaving

Shaving is perhaps the most widely used method of hair removal, especially among men, both on the body and on the face. Shaving is quick and easy and requires minimal equipment; a razor and you're good to go. For the best possible result, there are of course other products that can and should be used in addition when shaving to achieve the best possible result and a skin that does not feel irritated, red and sore afterwards.

When shaving body hair, such as on the legs, in the armpits, along the bikini line and when shaving intimately, it is important to take good care of the skin both before and after shaving.

Before shaving:

• Moisturize, clean and soften the areas of the body to be shaved. Use a good soap on the body and a soap suitable for the abdomen when shaving intimately.

• Apply shaving foam or shaving gel. It is an advantage if this is transparent, so that the skin underneath is easier to see.

• Tip! If you have run out of shaving foam or gel, use a good shower oil or hair conditioner instead!

Always use a clean and sharp razor blade - this reduces the risk of skin irritation. Disposable planers can be a good alternative.

Avoid ingrown hairs and inflammation of the hair follicles by always shaving in the same direction as the hair grows.
