You would be mistaken for not thinking that removing leg hair is a necessary beauty practice. Many people in Singapore still feel it’s a deeply personal decision. “You can’t tell any woman what she’s supposed to do with her body,” said one man in response to the idea of beautifying women by removing leg hair. Here are permanent leg hair removal in Singapore:
Waxing: When you wax your leg hair, hair removal is usually quite fast and lasts for quite some time. The method is typically applied by a professional and can be done on the legs, face, or bikini area. However, it can cause serious skin irritation or burns, especially if the skin is not treated before the process. There are different kinds of waxes which would either be herbal or synthetic.
Epilating/Sugaring: Epilation is a hair removal process that plucks each hair out at the root. This method is usually done by machines but it can also be done manually. While sugaring is an alternative method that uses sugar as an exfoliant to remove hair from the root. It is often preferred by those who have sensitive skin, as waxing can leave the area extremely red and painful.
Laser Hair Removal: This method is the most effective hair removal method in Singapore. The process uses light from a laser to destroy the hair follicle, making it impossible for the hair to grow back. This is also the most expensive option that a person can choose, but it also has a higher success rate than other methods.
Electrolysis: This method uses a probe to destroy unwanted hair. Electrodes are inserted into the hair follicles, then a current is sent through them in order to destroy the cells. The probe is then moved to the next follicle, repeating the same process. While this method is the most effective and affordable, it can take a long time to remove all unwanted hair.
Chemical Depilatory: This method is used to dissolve hair at the skin’s surface. The chemicals work by disrupting disulfide bonds in the keratin of your hairs. The process usually takes only 10 minutes and can be repeated regularly if desired. However, it requires a person to apply it and also leave it on for a few minutes.
IPL (Intense Pulse Light) Hair Removal: This method is also used to dissolve hair by breaking down the keratin in the hair. A housing device is used with various wavelengths of light that are emitted onto the skin. The light targets specific colors of hair instead of skin cells and works best on lighter hair colors. It does not hurt as much as other methods but can be slightly more expensive than chemical depilatories.
There are actually many different methods to get rid of leg hair but the most effective and affordable would be electrolysis. Doing electrolysis would not only remove unwanted body hair but also reduce acne scarring on the face, facial hair, and bikini area. This method is relatively painless and can be done in most clinics in Singapore.
