Underarm Waxing

Waxing helps you get rid of the unwanted hair in this portion. It also removes the dead skin from the surface. 

Below are the instructions to be followed:

1 Prepare the wax per the instructions on the label. Some waxes require warming, while others are used cold. Most importantly, make sure the consistency is smooth.
2 Wash the underarm area with a mild body cleanser and water, and then pat dry. Don't scrub, as this will irritate the skin and make it more sensitive to waxing.
3 Apply a light dusting of either talcum or baby powder to absorb any moistness or body oils. This will allow the wax to adhere to the hair for easier removal.
4 Spread a thin layer of wax to the underarm layer, making sure that you do so in the direction the hair is growing.
5.Place the hand of the arm being waxed behind your head in order to make the skin taut. This will help ensure that you don't miss the hairs in the crease of the underarm.
6 Press the cloth strip smoothly on the waxed portion of your skin. Use your fingers to rub the cloth back and forth in order to make certain that the cloth is fully adhered to the wax.
7. Take hold of the bottom of the cloth strip and quickly pull it in the opposite direction of the growth of the hair. You should keep the cloth parallel and very close to the skin in order to get the best results. Repeat the process until the entire area is hair-free, and then do the other arm in the same manner.
8. Pluck any stray hairs with a pair of tweezers to complete the procedure. Rinse with cool water to soothe the waxed area.
9. Rub the waxed area with ice cubes to lessen the amount of pain experienced during the waxing process, keep a bowl of ice cubes at hand. Apply it on the skin just after you wax to reduce the pain.

Note:
If underarm hair is more than 1/4 inch long, it should be trimmed before you wax. When the hair is longer, it is more difficult and painful to remove.
Tea tree oil can be applied to the skin after waxing in order to prevent ingrown hairs and lessen any redness that may occur.
Do not use deodorants or antiperspirants for one day after your waxing, as it may irritate the skin.Use the cloth strips no more than three times or your results may not be as effective as you want them to be.

Hope this is useful..!! :)
