6 Common Waxing Myths Debunked

3/27/2023

Waxing is a popular technique for hair removal that can give you smooth, hair-free skin for weeks; however, many misconceptions about waxing can make people hesitant to try it, especially if they’re first-timers.

In this blog post, we'll debunk some common myths about waxing and let you decide whether you want to try it.

Myth #1: Waxing hurts severely
Many people hesitate to try waxing because they think the pain is unbearable. While waxing can cause slight discomfort, it is not as painful as many believe. Modern methods and products have greatly advanced waxing, and today's waxes are specifically made to lessen discomfort and irritability. Moreover, regular waxing makes the hair thinner and easier to pull out. 

Myth #2: Waxing can induce ingrown hairs
Ingrown hairs are annoying and can be a side-effect of any hair removal method, including waxing. However, since waxing removes hair from the root and eventually weakens the hair follicle, the likelihood of ingrown hairs is significantly lower. By regularly removing dead skin cells that have a tendency to obstruct hair follicles, exfoliation before and after waxing can prevent ingrown hairs.

Myth #3: Waxing can cause wrinkled and saggy skin
This myth comes from the idea that waxing strips pull your skin and cause wrinkles over time. During waxing, the skin is held tight, and the strips don’t stretch the skin—the primary reason for wrinkles. You can get wrinkles for several reasons, like stress, sun exposure, or aging. 

Myth #4: Waxing is expensive
While the initial cost of waxing may seem high, it is cost-effective for hair removal in the long run. Waxing can keep you hair-free for several weeks, saving you money that would have been used for other hair removal methods like shaving or depilatory creams. Additionally, regular waxing slows the growth of new hair, requiring fewer treatments over time and saving money.

Myth #5: Waxing can cause skin damage
Waxing, if done correctly, should not cause any skin damage. However, untrained professionals may use low-quality wax or misapply it, resulting in skin damage such as burns, rashes, or irritation. Selecting a reputable salon with experienced waxing specialists is advised to avoid such occurrences.

Myth #6: Waxing is only for women
While waxing is more commonly associated with women, it is a hair removal procedure that anyone can use, regardless of gender. Waxing can be especially advantageous for men, as it can significantly enhance their appearance.

Waxing is a quick, easy, and affordable method of hair removal that has evolved significantly. Whether you're looking for long-lasting hair removal or to reduce the frequency of hair growth, waxing can be a good choice.
