Why do women have facial hair?

Excess Facial Hair in women

Excessive hair growth causes anguish and embarrassment for women. This condition is known as hirsutism, it occurs when the hair follicles are sensitive to excess secretion of a male hormone called androgen. Women suffering from this condition often face additional psychological problems such as low self-esteem and depression. So why do women secrete excess androgen, which is essentially a male hormone but can cause excess hair growth in women?

Hormonal changes

Excess secretion of androgen in women can be caused by many factors. Excess weight and stress are main contributors that upset hormone levels in the body. Take simple measures to curb weight and fight stress to bring your hormone levels back to normal. However, make sure that the hormonal changes are brought about by these factors only. Sometimes, pregnancy, irregular periods and menopause also upset hormone levels and bring about excessive facial hair growth.

Other factors

Certain medications such as steroids and hormone pills also cause excessive growth of unwanted facial hair. Avoid the use of steroids, testosterone replacement therapies unless you find the benefits of these treatments outweigh their side effects. Many women notice excess hair growth on the upper lip and chin due to polycystic ovarian syndrome which occurs during their reproductive period.

Methods to remove facial hair

There are several methods to remove facial hair. Waxing and threading are the 2 most popular methods for women who wish to remove facial hair from the upper lip and chin. Some women also use tweezers to remove facial hair on their eyebrows, upper lip and chin. However, these methods are temporary and the hair returns in a few weeks. Many women are now using hair inhibitors like Ultra Hair Away to inhibit hair growth and stop hair growth for good.

Laser Hair Removal: Know The Difference Between Lasers And Electrolysis Methods
by A Aaronson

Are you tired of shaving, waxing and plucking? Most women are. Some men also use depilatory methods to rid their bodies of unwanted hair growth. These methods work, but are not permanent and are time-consuming and sometimes painful. With waxing, you are also at risk of hurting your skin. There are a couple of options available to give you more time for relaxation.

Laser removal is something that most people have heard of. However, most people also do not know exactly how it works. A laser is used to target areas of growth. The beam doesn't target the hair, but the pigment that is the make-up of the hair. It is more known for slowing growth than actually removing it and it can take several treatments to get an extended period of time without growth.

One con of this type of treatment is that because it targets the pigments, it is only recommended for one type of person. Someone with light skin and dark hair is the ideal candidate. Light hair would not be targeted and darker skin can be burned. Benefits of this treatment include less pain and more convenience.

Another common type of removal is electrolysis. The way it works is that a very thin metal probe, thinner than a piece of thread, is inserted into individual hairs. An electric current is then sent through to kill the follicle.

This is one of the only things that will offer more permanent removal, but nothing can offer the full guarantee. In this procedure, you will typically have to go in for quite a few treatments, between fifteen and thirty for the average person. It is also a little painful. However, the results may make it worth it.

The benefit of electrolysis over laser removal is that it is approved for everyone. Because it does not target the pigment in the hairs, like the lasers, it does not matter what color your hairs is. Also, it is more permanent.

Both of these treatments will work for slowing the growth and eventually allowing long periods of time with no hair. It is important to see someone licensed and experienced in order to have good results.

Someone who doesn't have the necessary experience can burn your skin and leave scarring. Also, seeing a dermatologist is recommended over using any at-home kits for the same reason. You wouldn't want to hurt yourself or do any permanent damage.

Whichever treatment you choose, you will soon be able to spend less time on grooming and more time enjoying life. Both of these enable you to be more carefree and to feel more confident.

Prevent redness and swelling by soothing sensitive skin after waxing

hair removal permanent

Waxing is a great technique that helps you get rid of unwanted hair, but it can also leave behind unwanted tell-tale signs like swelling, rashes or inflammation. These signs generally occur immediately after waxing; it is particularly witnessed in people with sensitive skin. For some, waxing can be quite a traumatic experience but most people are comfortable using this hair removal technique.

Most people are prone to experiencing post-waxing side effects to a certain extent; but, waxing almost never causes any permanent damage and the side effects mostly disappear within a day or two. But if your skin is extremely sensitive, then you should follow certain guidelines for use; this will help reduce the intensity of your side effects.

When it comes to protecting your skin, prevention is definitely better than cure. Your tin of wax has some instructions and a list of ingredients on it. Read it thoroughly to make sure that you aren’t allergic to any of them. Certain waxes may contain resin which could be based on specific ingredients like lavender, tea tree oil, chocolate, etc. Some waxes also contain artificial fragrances, colours or ingredients, which could trigger off an allergic reaction.

If you are getting yourself waxed by a professional, you can tell the beautician about your allergies at the start of the waxing session. In case, you intend to do the waxing yourself, you can sprinkle on some powder (for soft wax) or oil (for hard wax) before you start waxing; this way the wax adheres to the hair rather than the skin, thus decreasing inflammation. Another method to soothe swollen or inflamed skin is to apply an aloe-based aftershave gel or brewed tea bags on waxed skin.

If waxing is simply too painful or doesn’t suit your skin, you can try another hair removal technique that best suits your particular skin type.

A comparison of different ingrown hair treatment products

ingrown hair treatment

Ingrown hair treatment products do not always work to pull out ingrown hair. Ingrown hair can be easily prevented even before they appear or they can even be stopped in their tracks with a little help. Especially formulated products help to deeply exfoliate the area, allowing the release of ingrown hair; simultaneously, these products help moisturize the skin, making it more pliable. And, Ingrow Go is one such ingrown hair treatment product.

Ingrow go for removing ingrown hair

A popular treatment for getting rid of ingrown hair, Ingrow go consists of natural ingredients that enable you to smoothly remove painful ingrown hair as well as razor bumps. Women can use it to remove hair from their armpits, legs, bikini line and face. Men and women can use it for treating razor bumps that are usually caused by shaving.

Other ingrown hair treatment products may contain harmful chemicals that are likely to produce adverse reactions in your body but the natural ingredients present in Ingrow go remove ingrown hair safely and naturally. Make sure that you read all the instructions before you use any ingrown hair removal product so that you are prevented from any unsafe reactions. Most of these products contain powerful exfoliators like glycolic acid as well as aspirin that many people are allergic to. Ingrow Go, on the other hand, does not contain any aspirin and so can be used by people with aspirin allergies.

Ingrow Go, as compared to other products, is an incredible hair removal and hair inhibitor product, which works using a unique four way action process such as purifying, exfoliating, renewing and refining. This ultimately results in a major reduction in ingrown hairs. Ingrow Go contains ingredients that deeply exfoliate your skin to help push ingrown hairs out of your skin.

Is There Really A Permanent Hair Removal System?
by Mark Willett

It is considered unhygienic and unattractive especially to women to have unwanted hair exposed especially on areas like underarm. Women would probably love to get rid of this unwanted hair and say goodbye to it for eternity. But, is there a permanent hair removal system?

It is hard to evaluate a permanent hair removal method that claims to last. Most people find out that after a certain amount of time hair will eventually come back. There are bounty of ways, through the use of machines, gadgets and treatments, that promise permanent hair removal. Some advertisement would make it sound that you will never be reunited with those unwanted hair just by getting the right amount of application on their products or regular use of their machines.

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved laser hair removal machines with permanent hair reduction since it can get rid of hair for long periods of time, through several treatments. With such method, however, growing back of hair is still likely to happen, although the hair's thickness and the amount of hair are greatly reduced. According to The Mayo Clinic, lasers can reduce hair counts by up to 80 percent.

Permanent Hair Removal Methods

Electrolysis This method uses electrical charge that involves destroying each hair follicle. This process takes a long time to complete, depending on the body part because it destroys every hair follicle. The client needs to have numerous treatments within a period of one to two years. Electrolysis is considered the most effective permanent hair removal system. There are three types of Electrolysis hair removal processes: the Galvanic, which produces an electro-chemical current substance called lye to destroy the dermal papilla; the thermolysis, which is a heat current produced to destroy the dermal papilla; and the blend, which is a combination of the galvanic and the thermolysis.

Flash lamp A flash lamp, also called Intense Pulsed Light (IPL), has also become popular as a tool for permanent hair removal. With this method, a light is emitted from a hand device on to the skin. The light targets melanin in hairs and causing it to heat up. The heat transfers to the hair follicle, causing mechanical and thermal damage. It is an effective permanent hair removal for large areas like the legs and the chest. Using of this method has disadvantages, however. If not done well, it can cause discomfort, skin burns, skin discoloration, patchy re-growth and lesions.

Laser The main principle of laser hair removal is selective photothermolysis (SPTL). Lasers can cause localized damage by selectively heating dark target matter, which is the melanin in the region where hair follicle is. The good thing about the laser method is that it does no heat or can cause burns on the rest of the skin.

The light is absorbed by dark objects, so laser energy can be absorbed by dark material in the skin (but with much more speed and intensity). This dark target matter, or chromophore, can be naturally-occurring or artificially introduced. Laser works best with dark coarse hair. Light skin and dark hair are an ideal combination, but new lasers are now being able to target dark black hair even in people with dark skin.

Having unwanted hair can be a pesky problem. But with these options, you can actually now eliminate unwanted hair easily. Although there is no such thing as "permanent hair removal system", you can always have the option to remove your unwanted hair through these methods whenever your unwanted hair grows back.

Ten great tips for painless hair removal

painless hair removal
Waxing is a popular technique that helps in unwanted hair removal; it has this fearsome reputation of causing agonizing pain. There’s good news now for those who have suffered through painful waxing sessions in the past just to keep unwanted hair at bay; painless hair removal is possible now. Waxing can be virtually painless if you adopt the following techniques.

  1. Your nerves communicate the painful sensations to your body. Make sure they are numb before waxing. Take an aspirin or use a numbing spray about half an hour before you start. This helps a lot, particularly if you are getting a bikini wax.
  2. Use the kind of wax that is best suited to your skin type. The correct method of application is also essential. Get a professional to work on you. This will certainly alleviate pain in people with a low pain threshold.
  3. A warm shower just before waxing helps open your skin pores, thus eliminating hair follicles with minimum trouble.
  4. Use a good body scrub; this will help clear up dead skin cells and loosen hair follicles before waxing.
  5. Avoid harsh toners or astringents because they tighten skin pores and make hair follicles hold on more firmly to your skin.
  6. Avoid using ice for numbing your nerves; because ice, like astringents and toners, tightens skin pores instead of relaxing them. If you simply want to soothe waxed skin, try using an aloe-based aftershave gel instead.
  7. Reduce your intake of coffee or alcohol right before a waxing session. These stimulants make your skin more sensitive to pain.
  8. Waxing at home is a good idea only if you have been professionally trained for it. Don’t try it if you are confident about your waxing skills; you may end up hurting yourself.
