Reasons Why Laser Hair Removal is the Obvious Choice Over Waxing 

Tired of waxing strips? Fed up with red, irritated skin? We hear you loud and clear. 


Waxing might be an effective method of hair removal that leaves skin hair-free temporarily, but it is certainly not convenient or comfortable. Requiring sessions every 2-3 weeks, waxing can leave you feeling like a slave to your hair growth. 


 Not to mention, we don’t know too many people who enjoy having their hair ripped out on a monthly basis… Need more convincing? Let’s chat about all of the reasons why we think   laser hair removal   is the obvious choice over waxing. 


Laser hair removal provides better results


Laser hair removal provides the best results, hands down. Visibly smooth and hair free, by the end of your sessions, there won’t be a hair in sight. 


Not to mention, unlike waxing, you won’t have to worry about bumps, redness or irritation any longer. Simply wake up, get dressed, and go. Totally hair-free and worry-free. 


Keep in mind that it will take you between 2 and 6 appointments to fully remove the hair, depending on your hair type and what body part we’re treating. In addition, some clients do experience some sensitivity after their laser hair removal session, but this is a temporary problem that you’ll only have to deal with as long as your sessions go. 


In other words, while waxing can leave your skin irritated after every single session, the only time you’ll ever experience sensitive skin from laser hair removal is the time period during which you are undergoing treatment. 


Laser hair removal delivers long-term results


So how long does laser hair removal last? This seems to be one of the biggest questions on our client's minds, and we understand why. When you’re paying for a premium service like laser hair removal, you want to feel confident that the procedure will provide you with smooth, hair-free skin for as long as possible. 


Lucky for you, we are happy to report that laser hair removal lasts significantly longer than waxing. In fact, laser hair removal is as close to permanent hair removal as you can get. 


In general, we would say that laser hair removal lasts about 5 years for most people, with the possibility for quick touch-up appointments if you happen to notice fine hair start to grow in. This can vary greatly from person to person. For instance, we’ve seen clients go as long as 10 years without needing a touch-up appointment. 


Don’t forget that sessions are much less lengthy when you require a touch-up than in your original appointments. 


We also like to remind clients that laser hair removal on the face typically grows back quicker than what we see on the body (i.e.s arms, legs, stomach, etc.). Again, though, this very much varies from person to person. 


Laser hair removal is less expensive than waxing


Sure, laser hair removal can seem like an investment when you first start looking into it but keep in mind that once your sessions are complete, you’ll never have to pay for another hair removal service again.

 

Or, at the very least, if you do notice some sparse hair growth years after your laser hair removal, you’ll only have to pay for a quick touch-up, rather than bi-weekly waxing appointments. 


Laser hair removal has fewer risks and side effects


While it’s true that there are some side effects associated with laser hair removal, these side effects are so rare that almost anyone can get this treatment.


Waxing is also a treatment that is relatively attainable for the average individual; however, in our experience, we have found that there are more side effects associated with waxing. 


For instance, ingrown hairs, redness, irritation, bleeding, rashes, sun sensitivity, and even allergic reactions (depending on the ingredients used in the wax), are all possible side effects associated with laser hair removal.
