Waxing or Shaving?

Hi Everyone,

I know that removing hair is big part of every girls's life. Although some of us may prefer shaving or waxing or vice versa I decided to a blog post informing you guys of all the pros and cons of waxing and shaving.

I know most girls resort to shaving when it comes to removing hair. Shaving can be really good as it is painless, and quick. Shaving is very simple as it just involves just a razor and some shave gel. However the down side to shaving is that it creates ingrowth. Ingrown hair is the hair that grows underneath your skin. This is very common if you shave because shaving only removes the hairs on the surface. Another problem with shaving is that it requires daily maintenance as the hair grows back fast. Not only that but when the hair grows back, it grows back darker and coarser.

Another common method of hair removal is waxing. Waxing is great because it removes hair form the roots so that your not left with ingrown hair. Also with waxing it takes long for the hair to grow back and when it does grow back it doesn't  becoming darker or coarser. With personal experience I have also noticed that over time the hair growth decreases. However the down side to waxing is that it does hurt and can be more difficult then shaving. Also waxing is more time consuming as it involves multiple steps.

Personally I try to wax whenever I can just in order to prevent ingrown hair. However when I am busy and I don't have the time to wax I do shave.
