Illinois Bikini Line Hair Removal

Hair removal along the bikini line helps beachwear look its best, especially with swimsuit fashions always flirting with the risqu. Pubic hair along the bikini should be treated differently than other parts of the body. It is naturally curly, making ingrown hairs a greater possibility, and the roots are very near the surface of the skin, along with nerve endings that make the area so sensitive.

Women have a number of options to treat hair removal at the bikini line:

  • Shaving, which is a simple solution, though stubble necessitates daily shaving and ingrown hairs become more likely.
  • Electrolysis, which involves inserting a needle into the hair follicles and sending a current through them. The effect is usually permanent, but it can be painful and time consuming.
  • Depilatory creams, which break down the structure of the hair above the skin. It's cheap and painless, but it may result in redness and needs to be periodically reapplied.
  • Plucking or epilation, which pulls the hair at the bikini line out at the roots with tweezers. It is inexpensive, but it can be very painful.
  • Lasers, which treat the follicle with a laser light attuned to the pigmentation of the hair. It is not always permanent, but the results last a long time.
