The heat is ideal for dilating the pores of the skin, allowing the hair to be pulled out easily and preventing pain. Before waxing your bikini line, take a hot shower or bath. You can then directly use an electric epilator designed especially for the shower. If you prefer wax, it is important to dry your skin well, otherwise the wax will have difficulty adhering.
The jersey is a particularly sensitive area that requires great concentration. It is important to choose a time when you are relaxed. In the evening or on weekends, take some time for yourself. Doing your hair removal session in the evening is also a good idea to allow time for the redness to disappear. Also be aware that during periods of menstruation, the skin is more sensitized. So avoid period days, especially if you tend to be nervous.
In order to limit pain as much as possible, remember to prepare your skin before waxing your bikini line. First, cleanse your skin in this sensitive area. Also remember to clean your shaving head to avoid infection. You can apply a non-aggressive alcohol-free lotion. It is also recommended to exfoliate just before to remove dead skin. At the same time, you will also avoid ingrown hairs. For the bikini area, the scrub should be softer than on the legs. You can repeat this operation between two waxings for better results. The hair will pull out more easily, and the pain will be less.
If you've decided to wax your bikini line, be careful. Always make sure beforehand that the wax is not too hot! Test the temperature before applying it to your skin. The bikini area is so sensitive that a burn quickly happened! Another tip:you can apply a little talc to the skin. Indeed, the talc allows the wax to adhere well to the skin, and thus facilitates the pulling out of the hair. And above all, do not take the wrong direction when tearing off the strips:always from the bottom up!
Generally, after depilation of the bikini line with wax or an electric epilator, tingling appears. To reduce this heat effect, take an ice cube or a cold towel and apply it to your pubis. The skin is thus anesthetized. But you can also do this before you start waxing. The pain will then be less, and you won't have time to say "ouch"!
