Permanent hair removal: mistakes not to be made

Summer is about to come to an end and it is the right time to think about solving once and for all the problem of unwanted hair that has turned into a worry for some during the holidays. Indeed, it is precisely when you no longer spend many hours in the sun that you start planning a strategy to get to the next summer with silky smooth skin.

One less worry. After all, that’s a bit what we all think when we consider choosing a permanent hair removal treatment.

After all, how can you not take it into consideration, the freedom it promises is unique. End of the torture of waxing every three weeks, of the razor every three days, of the hours posing with the depilatory cream. In short, the end of the fixed appointments with the «hair».

But beware of the small mistakes that are often made when you approach the idea of ​​eliminating unwanted hair forever. EpilAmbra, the leading beauty institute in Romagna in the field of permanent hair removal that has drawn up a balance sheet for the summer, drawing up a list of the seven most common mistakes made by people when it comes to permanent hair removal.

1. CHOOSE THE LOWEST PRICE
It is true that high price is not always synonymous with high quality but it is also equally true that professional machines really cost a lot of money, especially those of the latest generation. Technology has made great strides in recent years, a low price could be synonymous with outdated equipment and outdated technology. It is always good to check that the beauty institute you are contacting uses high-tech equipment approved by the Ministry of Health. When it comes to skin health, pricing only the lowest price might be a no-win strategy.

2. RELY ON NON-QUALIFIED STAFF
There are beauty institutes that offer permanent hair removal services, manicures and pedicures, massages and facials, and then there are institutes that choose only one of these services and specialize, invest time and resources in researching technologies and training staff. . Permanent hair removal treatments are carried out with high-powered laser machines which, in the wrong hands, can also cause serious damage to the skin. Skin health is extremely important and it is always good practice to rely only on certified professionals and specialized centers.

3. STOP THE TREATMENT BEFORE GOING ON HOLIDAY
The result of false myths and antiquated technologies, there is still a widespread belief that permanent hair removal is not compatible with the sea and tanning. Nothing could be more wrong: the most obsolete machines required a discreet chromatic contrast between the skin and the hair to prevent sunburn, burns and damage to the skin. The latest generation technologies for laser hair removal are calibrated to target only the hair, eliminating it, without affecting the surrounding skin, regardless of its color or level of tan. Interrupting the treatment to go on vacation could, on the contrary, have a negative effect on the success of the treatment, which requires consistency and precise timing to destroy the hair at the root and eliminate it permanently.

4. THINK THAT PERMANENT EPILATION HAS A PROHIBITIVE COST
Buying a permanent hair removal treatment is not a small choice, it certainly requires a not negligible initial investment; but are we sure that it costs much more than other hair removal methods? In reality, it is enough to sit down at the table and do the math to realize that the initial investment in permanent hair removal is “amortized” quickly over time when compared to the ongoing cost of other methods. Waxing, creams, and razors cost less at first but over time the total increases more and more.

5. STOP THE TREATMENT TOO EARLY, BEFORE THE RESULTS ARE VIEWED
Password: do not be discouraged. Each skin is unique and each type of hair reacts differently to treatment. For some people the results may be immediate, for others it may take more sessions. The important thing is to always follow the advice of the operator who performs the treatment, and if they tell us that we need patience, we will have to rely on his experience and his judgment.

6. STOP THE TREATMENT AS SOON AS THE RESULTS ARE VIEWED

One of the most common mistakes is to stop the treatment prematurely because the results arrive immediately and it does not seem necessary to continue with the sessions. The truth is that it is essential to conclude the permanent hair removal process to have results that are forever. Stopping too early could reduce the effectiveness of the treatment and the hair could grow back after a short time, defeating all the efforts made.

7. START A TREATMENT WITHOUT ASKING FOR EXPERT ADVICE
As already mentioned above, each skin is unique and each type of hair is different. How can the same treatment be perfect for two different people? Answer: it can’t. It is vitally important to rely on a beauty salon that offers professional and in-depth advice before
start the treatment and monitor its progress step by step, adjusting and modifying it according to the specific needs of the skin. Without specific advice, the risks range from ineffective treatment to potential burns and skin injuries.
