7 Ways Waxing is Better than Shaving ...

Have you ever had razor burn? Not only is it painful and itchy, but it also looks terrible! No one wants to put on a bikini or a tank top with red, bumpy razor burn on their bikini line or underarms. Waxing is better than shaving because it eliminates razor burn completely.

If you wake up late and don’t have time to shave your legs, you might have to rethink your entire outfit for the day. But if you’ve had your legs waxed, it doesn’t matter if you have time or not! Waxing is better than shaving because it saves you a ton of time each day! Since shaving has to be done on a day-to-day basis, we all spend a lot of extra time in the shower each day. Waxing eliminates this time-consuming step in our daily routines.

If you repeatedly wax an area of the body, over time the hair will grow in less and less. This is caused by hair papilla damage caused by waxing. The hair papilla is responsible for supplying nutrients to the hair in order for it to grow. Without the papilla, the hair can’t grow. Think of it as free permanent hair removal!

I hate the way spikey stubble feels! It’s one of the worst feelings in the world. When you shave your hair, you are cutting it off leaving a blunt tip. When you wax the hair, you remove it from the root, so when it grows back it has a fine tip that is soft not pokey. Waxing is better than shaving because you don’t have to deal with spikey stubble!

Waxing is better than shaving because you don’t have to waste money on razors and shaving cream. Razors get dull so quickly and they are so expensive to replace. If you shave with a dull razor, you’re bound to get pesky razor burn. Not to mention, shaving requires wasting a lot of water while showering and takes up so much time each day. A waxing appointment typically takes 30 minutes (depending on the area(s) being waxed) and the results are long lasting!

Waxing is better than shaving because the results usually last up to a month while shaving must be done daily! Sure, the hair begins growing back during this time, but it’s finer and softer than when you shave. You have to let the hair grow back out in order to wax it again, but the hair is much less noticeable and doesn’t require you to shave it.

Waxing is better than shaving because you don’t have to do the work! You get to pay someone else to remove your unwanted body hair for you! Need I say more?

If you’ve never waxed your unwanted facial or body hair, now is the time to try it! You will love the results and will be so glad you have extra time to get ready each morning! Who agrees with me that waxing is better than shaving? What areas do you wax?
