Waxing/Shaving

ok i know this has been the millionth post bout it

but still i’ve been wondering for a very long time n it’s gettin me very aggrivated

anyways the thing is, whenever i wax my legs i still can see the tiny pieces of hair left within the skin, when i touch it i can’t feel em but its like their still in their or i dono wut the hell it is but u can see the dots n ish, same with when i shave. i mean i see all these kurian wearin skirts n their legs look soooooo smooth n nice n they shave which makes me get even more mad cuz i kill ma energy n pain tryna wax em

NOW ppl i am embarassed enuff to have to open this thread so please spare me with the jokes and sarcasm n help me out :crying:

:frowning: sigh i hate openin such threads..but wut can i do..i need helpppp

I shave not wax, not my legs i mean but under arms and etc......

Sorry.

I wonder how those girls get such incredibly smooth and hairfree skin. I was thinking maybe I should try an epilator but I know someone who does it and her arms have the same problem as your legs. I still think waxing is the best. Someone should ban razors!

Re: Waxing/Shaving

Spared you :smokin:

It's because your hair growth cycles aren't all synchronised - so not all your hair is going to be the same length. So the hair's that you see left over are those that were too short to be waxed away. Or sometimes the hair doesn't get pulled out from the root but gets broken off at the surface of the skin, usually due to poor waxing technique. That's why you can still see the 'dots' of hair.

maybe they use some kinda cream

btw is shaving haram for women according to islam?

I agree with Shahreen another thing is that kay ap pehlay shave kerti hon gi....uski waja say hair maybe thick....n when u wax thick hair it doesnt come out all nice...dun worry it will take a while (keep waxin) to get those thin hair and then hopefully ur legs will come out nice......and btw I do use epilator for my arms and it works fine...I get smooth arms...and for ppl who dun get the same result is cuz they maybe doing it the wrong way....u are suppose to go against the direction of hair growth.

What's a epilator?

another reason is that us desis mostly have very dark black hair. People with blonde and brown hair can get away with it because the hair are less visible.

check this out n u will know wat it is

Today while shaving I got a nicked right below the chin.

Chorni :flower1: girl, waxing hurts. I shave my legs every other day and they look and feel silky smooth because I apply foam before shaving…but regardless for some reason, the skin ends up feeling really silky. I only use waxing for eyebrows and arms; otherwise I find shaving to accomodate me best. I have no issues with my face as I had laser hair removal treatments done on it two years ago to permanently get rid of the darker hair.

i wax.. and have been for bout 6-7 yaers… now i hardly have any baal on my legs :blush:

its said that after a few years of waxing, hair doesnt grow as much.. and i think its true.. cus i can go about 2-3 months without having to wax

ive never shaved in my life.. and i doubt i will :slight_smile: Inshallah

chorni, which way are u pulling the strip off? sometimes if u dont pull it in the right direction? that may be the cause..

the best thing to do is wait till ur hair is about 1cm long.. dont wax too quickly cus it leaves in growns..

i know if u leave em too long they look pretty disgusting, but at the end of the day, it’ll be better for u :k:
