Skin Care & Waxing For TEENS!
As an esthetician, I can tell you that waxing is an excellent hair removal option for teens. With summer quickly approaching and beach days becoming more frequent, teens are understandably concerned about their appearance and want to look their best. Waxing is a great way for them to do that.
So, why is waxing so important for teens? First of all, it is a long-lasting hair removal option. Unlike shaving, which only removes hair from the surface of the skin, waxing removes hair from the root. This means that the results of waxing will last much longer than shaving, making it a great option for teens who want to stay hair-free throughout the summer.
In addition, waxing can help prevent ingrown hairs. Ingrown hairs can be painful and unsightly, and they can be particularly common in areas that are frequently shaved, such as the bikini area. Waxing removes hair from the root, which can help prevent ingrown hairs from forming.
So, what is the right age to start waxing? There is no set age at which a person should start waxing, as everyone’s hair growth and maturity levels are different. However, most estheticians agree that it is safe for teens to start waxing once they have begun puberty.
Before booking a waxing appointment for your teen, it’s important to have a conversation with them about the process and what to expect. Let them know that it may be uncomfortable, but that the discomfort is typically brief and will subside quickly. It’s also important to choose a reputable esthetician who has experience working with teens and who uses high-quality products.
