There is shaving, creams, waxing, brazilian and laser treatments. Lets break them done to see which procedure is the best.

Shaving

Method: Removing the pubic hair with a razor, electric shaver or even scissors.

Pros: It is very inexpensive, simple and you can do it on your own where ever you are.

Cons: You have to do it all the time on a regular basis. It may get itchy down there when the hair starts to grow back. It also isn’t the look many women want.

Hair Removal Creams

Method: Apply a thick cream to the hair you want to remove.  You need to wait at a minimum 5 minutes. After that you wipe away the hair.

Pros: It is the same as shaving, but you don’t cut yourself.  You have to do it often depending on how fast your hair grows back.

Cons: Many of these creams smell horrible.  You can also get a stinging feeling on your skin. Many women get an allergice reaction, so you might want to read the label first.

Bikini Waxing

Method: Hot wax is applied to the bikini line (and upper legs) with a flat wooden tongue depressor against the hairy skin. Then they put a strip of linen on top and pressed down against the wax. Once it sticks to the hair, the beautician rips kit off quickly.

Pros: It’s a very simple way to remove unwanted hair. The outcome is usually to your satisfaction. The skin comes out very smooth. Make sure to get a credible person do this.

Cons: It can be very painful. Ripping that strip off your skin with hair attached is painful. You usually need someone to di it, it is very difficult to do it yourself. It can also be very messy. It also costs more then shaving or the cream. You will also need to keep this up every month for maintenance.

Brazilian Bikini Removal

Method: This is the cadillac of waxing. You are removing all hair down there, even in the buttocks area. 

Pros: This is done by a professional. You will be as clean as a babys bottom. No hair at all down there. All you’ll see is skin and it feels great!

Cons: It can get pretty expensive and the pain doesn’t get any easier. The procedure gets into areas you must be comfortable with if you know what I mean. You will need to fully get undressed for this one. Once you get comfortable with your beautician, it will be a breeze. But again you have to keep this up at least once a month for maintenance.

Laser Hair Removal

Method: You must have a licensed clinician or M.D.  Using electrolysis removes unwanted hairs with an electric needle that probes into single hairs (one at a time), conducting an electrical current that kills the root and prevents regrowth. Laser hair removal uses the pulsation of a laser light to kill hair growth when applied to small areas (about the size of a quarter) around unwanted hairs.

Pros: This is permanent. No more hair! Ever!

Cons: You will be spending some money for these treatments. It can also be quite painful. The equipment used is expensive as well. If the pain gets to be too much, you might even need a cream to numb it.

There you have it! Which treatment do you feel is the best for you. Hair removal is a personal decision, and making the best decision for you is critical.

Bikini waxing beats shaving all day long. It lasts longer because it’s a lot closer and cleaner than what a razor can get. Getting it done professionally is also looked at as pampering, very much like a pedicure or manicure. If you choose a nice place to get it done, it can turn out to be a great experience.

If you want to have the ultimate experience with the least amount of pain, you’ll look into laser hair removal. This is the most expensive procedure but can be nearly a permanent treatment that lasts indefinitely.

Because the hair is removed by laser beams and not by yanking out the hair with a waxing procedure, you’ll experience much less pain, and the procedure will be done much quicker.

Hair Removal Tip: I would strongly recommend taking an advil or ibuprofen an hour before your treatment. Also, do not go the week before your period because your pain threshold is less.

If you can, get a referral from a friend. It’s always the most reliable way to get the quality you want done by getting a friend who has experienced it firsthand. Going to a place you pulled out of the phone book is a crap shoot.

The french bikini treatment is much less than a full brazilian.  The brazilian basically removes most if not all of the pubic hair, whereas the french removes enough to allow you to wear a swimsuit or thong without worry of pubic hair sticking out and creating an embarrassing moment.

Waxing can be a very painful and it’s not permanent. Your hair grows back and then  you have to make the decision to go through it again, or opt for daily shaving. The more pubic hair you have, the more painful it will be. Also, make sure the facility is clean and the person who is doing your treatment is experienced. Ask before you book the appointment how experienced the person is.

Many women have had horrible treatments where they felt hacked up and unclean after the procedure was done. Also make it very clear as to how low and narrow you want to go. When they are finished, they should offer you a mirror to make sure they removed the amount of hair you wanted to allow you to look nice in your french cut bikini. They should also pluck any remaning hairs at your request.

You may find this style is not enough for you, and you might try a brazilian bikini treatment next time.

For women who want nothing down there this is the best procedure for you. A full brazilian bikini wax is ideal for those who want a clean and hairless pubic area. With this method you will not experience bikini bumps or even ingrown hairs. This is one of the main reason it has exploded in popularity.

The brazilian treatment is perfect just before you go on a vacation. You can leave the razor behind if you do. How nice that would be to not have to worry about shaving your pubic area to look your best in your bikini during the entire vacation?

Before you get your wax done you must trim your current pubic hair. After that, the wax is put on smaller areas at a time. They start with snipping off the hair. Then the wax is applied in little area at a time. The wax is hot and placed on the area with a strip.  The strip is then pulled off removing the hair. If there is any hair left, tweezers are used to remove them.

The entire process can be completed in less than 30 minutes, so you’re in and out quickly. There really is no negative to getting a brazilian bikini wax hair removal treatment done.

There are several different reasons for the cost variation with a procedure like this.  You need to factor in where you live, the laser equipment they use, and ultimately how much hair you want to get rid of. Time is also factored into the price.

You’ve got different types of hair removal for the bikini or pubic area. The brazilian is taking it all off! Many people opt for this one, but it will cost the most and take more time, resulting in follow up sessions.

A dollar amount I research was from the American Society of Plastic Surgeons. The average price/or fee across the nation for laser hair removal is $429.  Fees will vary based on the doctor’s location, whether it be in the city, suburbs or out in the country.

If you pay up front, you may get a discount. It never hurts to ask. Do some legwork or frequently come back to this site to help you make a better, more informed decision.

Consult With A Doctor To Get Accurate Costs

For many patients, three treatments may be enough to provide hair removal for many months. For others it may take more or less than three laser hair removal treatments. Many doctors offer a special price for a package of treatments at a reduced price.

There are several options for you to remove your hair line. Looking good in your bikini will be easily achieved with any of these methods. Depending on the procedure you decide on, the costs can vary greatly. On this site, we’ll help you get a better understanding and help you decide which procedure you will ultimately want to do.
