Top 5 Common Hair Removal Cream Myths Busted

Hair grows back thicker every time you remove

This is one of the oldest Hair Removal Cream Myths in the book. Removing hair especially by waxing method makes hair grow thinner every time.

Any method of hair removing, if it fails to uproot hair completely leaving behind the thicker middle; it might seem thicker when it grows out because it is blunt. But in reality it is not thicker.

Veet hair removal creams work closer to the roots and breaks the keratin protein allowing you to wipe off the hair. Thus, along with enjoying long lasting smoothness, you can also be assured that your hair which re-grows in not any thicker.

Sensitive skin people should not use hair removal creams

While sensitive skin are at more risk of allergic reactions, acnes, rashes or any kind of skin irritations; carefully following the instructions and following dermatologists’ suggestions/advice one can safe guard themselves from any adverse effects.

Veet has products designed especially for sensitive skin type. These products are dermatologically tested and have a specialized formula.

For more safety, use appropriate Veet Hair Removal Creams after doing a small patch test.

Hair removal creams and razors work the same way

Depilatory creams and razors – both are aimed at working towards removing unwanted hair.

Razors cut the hair right away from the skin’s surface which means a thick middle part of the hair is still within the skin. This sharp stubble comes out from the skin the very next day making the skin loose its smoothness.

Whereas, depilatory creams works close to the roots and removes hair from below the skin. This makes sure that when there is hair regrowth, it grows back with rounded tips. This was skin still feels smooth.

Exfoliate your skin after removing hair

Some people believe in exfoliating, oiling and heavily moisturizing the skin right after removing hair. Since you have just undergone the procedure of hair removal with suitable products, your skin might be too sensitive to bear exfoliation. It might show up effects which you could have never thought of.

If any pores are opened, it might get clogged due to oil/moisturizer application. Instead wait for some time and when things have settled considerably, proceed with the post hair removal skin care.

Exfoliating your skin before removing hair gives better results and improves silky smooth feeling of the skin.

Do not use hair removal creams on bikini-line

This might have been true until Veet manufactured Hair Removal Creams that are safe to use on bikini lines for different skin types.

Following usage instructions and safety directions provided by the brand is important. You have to be absolutely sure about not applying to any intimate areas and not going too close to the genital areas while using hair removal cream.
