Hair Removal : How to Remove Underarm Hair

Whether you have a quiet weekend ahead or a night out with your friends planned, there are some parts of our body that most of us prefer to maintain free of hair. Our underarms are one of the most common places that we like to remove hair from, often because it can help to manage and prevent body odour*. There are many different ways to go about underarm hair removal. If you're out with your friends listening and dancing to music, it's likely that you are going to want to dance which could mean raising your arms up. You want to be able to rest assured that your underarms are neat, tidy and hair free to give you the confidence you need to enjoy yourself!

Your armpits are a sensitive area of your body so it's important to pick the technique that works best for you. For many, depilatory creams are the best solution for removing hair from the sensitive skin of your underarms.

With these creams, it is important that you conduct a patch test 24 hours prior to using the product, just to check that is it suitable for your skin. Apply the hair removal cream to the area of skin where you wish to remove hair from, by using the spatula and spreading it out evenly. When applied to the hair, the depilatory cream starts to dissolve the proteins in the hair. It is a quick and easy process, perfect for removing hair in the comfort of your own home. Follow usage instructions & precautions as directed on pack & leaflet.

In addition to being a fast method, depilatory cream also reaches the hair in the tricky, awkward to reach areas of your underarm. With this technique there is much less chance of missing areas, ensuring all of the unwanted hair is gone.

One last benefit that is very important to many people that use this technique is that this is one of the only pain free hair removal methods around. This is because you are dissolving the hair at the surface, not pulling it out at the root so there is no pain to worry - perfect for those with a low pain threshold.

Using hair removal creams can have many benefits and most importantly gives you great results!
