Most young people are familiar with laser hair removal and sugaring procedures. Today we're going to look at the differences between these procedures and define which one is better to choose in terms of six main criteria: preparation, pain, intervals, course duration, price, and safety.
Preparation
Laser hair removal. The evening before the procedure, you only need to shave the areas where you want to do hair removal. Do not pluck the hair in any case.
Sugaring. On the contrary, hair needs to be grown so that the technician can remove it quickly and efficiently. There are certain inconveniences in this: you will be able to walk with smooth skin only for a short period, and then the hair will start growing back, but you cannot shave it.
Painful sensations
Laser hair removal. The procedure should be painless when using a new-generation diode laser; if it hurts, you should think about changing the laser or your beauty salon in general.
Sugaring. There are certain painful sensations because the procedure actually involves plucking hair.
Intervals
Laser hair removal. From 3-4 weeks at the beginning of the course to 3 months at the end.
Sugaring. 3-4 weeks.
Duration of the course
Laser hair removal. 7-12 procedures, after which you need to do 1-2 maintenance procedures every year.
Sugaring. For life.
Price
Laser hair removal. The average price depends on the region of Ukraine, the device, and the level of the beauty salon or clinic. On average, a deep bikini plus underarms package costs from 500 to 1,200 hryvnias.
Sugaring. A deep bikini plus underarms package costs from 350 to 600 UAH.
Safety
Laser hair removal is performed on smooth skin, and after each client, the device manipulator must be properly disinfected. At the client's request, the technician should wrap the part of the manipulator that touches the body with cling film (keep in mind that this will slightly reduce the effectiveness of the procedure).
The essence of sugaring is hair plucking, which means that the skin is injured, so in terms of safety, this is not the best option.
Unlike sugaring, laser hair removal never leaves ingrown hairs.
In the end, everyone chooses their own type of hair removal, the main thing is to find a clinic or beauty salon where the quality of the procedure and the safety of the client will be treated properly.
Be healthy, beautiful, and happy!
