Razor, wax, cream, laser - Hair removal solutions

Hair on my body (except on my head) is my all time enemy. Since I was a kid I was fighting against my "fur coat". I remember I was 13 years old when I told my mom: "That's it, I can't live with my hair on my legs and on my armpits anymore, where is the razor? And my mom gave me one, she showed me how to use it (I was a kid, so who knows what I could do with a razor) and when I was done I was the happiest girl on the earth. I enjoyed my smooth legs and hairless armpits.

When I attend esthetician school, I've learned a lot about hair removal techniques and methods.

Hair Structure

Hair follicle

A hair follicle is a stocking-like structure that contains several layers with different jobs. The hair follicle can be recognized as a separate entity within the skin with formation and maintenance based on interaction between dermal and epidermal components.

Hair papilla

The papilla is the very bottom portion of the hair follicle that contains the blood supply and the matrix. The matrix consists of cells that actually form the hair shaft. The papilla is active during the anagen phase, is separated from the hair shaft during the catagen phase, and is completely inactive during the telogen phase.
