The epilation helps to make skin smooth and velvety for long term. However because of numerous epilations the hair strongly become thinner and over time do not become capable to break through outside epidermis. As a result they begin to grow under skin, forming not esthetic black hillocks which besides quite often inflame.
Preparation for epilation
To prevent growing of hair, before carrying out epilation it is necessary to steam out skin and to make peeling. This procedure promotes clarification of skin from dead cells and raises even the shortest hairs. It guarantees better epilation.
Instead of peeling it is possible to use rigid bast daily. It will allow to peel devitalized scales of epidermis in time.
Correct carrying out epilation
The grown hair can appear as a result of any method of epilation. However most often this problem arises after removal of hair in house conditions. The most popular methods of disposal of undesirable vegetation are classical shaving, epilator and wax strips. If the razor is used to removal of hair, it is necessary to use only fine edges. Dull edges cause microinjuries because of which hair can begin to grow under skin. The shaving which is carried out against growth of hair promote emergence of this problem too. The machine needs to be directed on growth of hair. When using epilator the device also should be moved in the direction of growth of hair. At the same time it is necessary to try not to press it too strongly to body, not to tear off from skin and not to carry out many times on the same zone. Movements have to be easy and smooth. When carrying out waxing, on the contrary, strips need to be torn off against growth of hair. Besides, it is important to pull well skin, otherwise part of hairs will break off and further will grow under skin.
Epilation skin care
After carrying out epilation it is necessary to process leather antiseptic. Solution of salicylic acid or chlorhexidin which besides have the easy peeling effect optimum will be suitable for these purposes. Then it is necessary to apply the moisturizing cream or lotion to skin.
As the moistening means it is the best of all to use the special cosmetic products which are slowing down growth of hair and interfering their growing. It is desirable to apply such means for several days.
If after epilation there was strong irritation, it is possible to use the ointments having panthenol in structure. It is also possible to remove irritation by means of tincture of calendula or propolis. Within 2-3 days after epilation it is impossible to wear close synthetic linen (for example, tights) as it can cause reddening of skin and provoke growing of hair.
