Safe and Effective Permanent Hair Removal for Summer

Jun 17
2010

As the summer season is upon us most of us are thinking of ways to get that beach body in shape ready to dare and bare!
As such out come the exfoliators, razors, wax strips, fake bake and the sun shades… all in an effort to get glam and gorgeous!

It’s at this time too usually that lots of start to think how much easier it would be to not have the worry of shaving week in and week out and instead what a dream it would be to wake up every day like we were in the Venus adverts on TV! Well… there is a solution! Hair removal can be permanent and long lasting with the help of techniques such as laser and IPL, making your summer prep season far less labouring and instead free up more of time to shop till you drop for that perfect beach look!

However, I think its time to reflect on a few do’s and don’ts as the summer season is now upon us. To ensure you are able to have safe and effective hair removal treatment:

• DO stay out of the sun 4 weeks prior to and following a hair removal session. This is because if you expose the treated are to sunlight (be it the real deal or even sunbeds) you run the risk of your skin hyper or hypo pigmenting. This means it could leave you with dark or light patches – which aren’t conducive to that perfect beach bod!

• DO NOT apply fake tanning lotions or tinted moisturisers during the 4 weeks before and after each permanent hair removal session.

• DO tell your therapist if you have plans to go to the sun or indeed expose your skin to UVA or UVB light 4 weeks either side of your session so she/he can best inform you for the next actions in order to maintain your health and safety.

• DO NOT pluck or wax the hair to be treated prior to a session. This is because IPL and laser work by killing the hair at its root – if you remove the root: the treatment won’t work.

Adhering to the four simple guidelines will ensure you undergo safe and effective IPL or laser treatment and will ensure your hair free sun-sational beach bod for the coming year!

A Womans Thoughts on Male Hair Removal!

May 13
2010

As a woman, and working in the profession I do: I am often asked, my thoughts on male hair removal, “who” does it, is it OK or indeed what are the common zones to remove the hair.

I have plenty of male friends who deem men as “men” and for that reason they choose to keep the hair in place on their body so as not to appear effeminate but there are on the other hand more and more men taking up the art of “manscaping” and indeed reaching for the scissors, trimmer or razor.

Hair is one of those things that over the years affects most of us in some way: some want it, some don’t, some trim it, some won’t.

When it comes to male hair removal though and from a consensus of most of my girl friends, there are 5 golden rules to how you want your man to keep on top of his grooming habits, I mean we don’t want them to simply “not care” – but then we still want to be the females in this relationship!

Here are my 5 top tips for male hair removal:

  1. Facial Hair is a plus sign! Women don’t want to date their younger brother who hasn’t quite yet hit puberty, so a man with a little facial stubble is deemed as a good thing.
  2. A man’s back should be smooth! Don’t be under any illusion that a hairy back is an added quirk or indeed we feel comfy snuggling up to it at night in place of our blanket! As a whole we like a man’s back to be smooth and defined, we don’t want that hairy rug to cover up one of a man’s sexiest bits!
  3. Johnson and the twins should get a little trim: this can be hard and some men aren’t sure how much or even how to trim.  Remember that this is your crown jewels and although some men might do it for comfort, another popular reason is to trim the hedge in order to make the house look bigger. Whatever you choose you should do it because you’re comfy: but think of your partner too!
  4. Underarms should be hairy or well trimmed: women shave their underarms, men quite simply should not. Don’t get me wrong: we find it ok should you wish to have a good trim under there – there’s nothing wrong with taking pride! And come the summer months you won’t want to crack out the t-shirt and have a forest trying to escape its boundaries. But underarm grooming should be kept to a minimum.
  5. Legs and arms should be left natural: We appreciate that some professional sports personalities may need to shave these areas, but as a whole, most women accept the fact that men are the hairier of the species and as so we do still want to be reminded of that. Keeping arm and leg hair natural just enforces the Lynx affect as it were!


We would love to hear from you with your comments on male hair removal habits! Girls… what’s your take on it? Guys… do you do it? Tell us!

Male Hair Removal Trends

May 11
2010

Male hair removal is ever on the increase and in a bid to get beautiful this summer DepiCool have noted a boom in “boy bits” being depilated!

Men these days it seems are just as proud of their bodies as their female counterparts. (Quite rightly so!) So is it the weather that is seeing these men dash for our salon door or is it purely curiosity? Maybe our newly smooth ladies have been spreading the word to their male friends and relations about their DepiCool discovery!?!
We think motivations are individual, but what is clear is that it is present! We´d love to hear from you (esp. if you´re a guy!) with your thoughts on hair removal for men!

Hair removal and permanent hair reduction with IPL is a cost effective, manageable and convenient way to remove unwanted body hair. DepiCool can help you train even the most unruly unibrows, rampant mankini’s, hairy back, buttocks or even chests and get you ready to look your best for that beach holiday later this year!

No matter what the age, sexual orientation or ethnicity: male hair removal is a hot topic this summer!

IPL technology may seem like a long term and high cost investment: but compared to other permanent hair removal options with DepiCool you could save 60% on competitor prices! And recognising the difference compared to the ongoing costs of hair removal such as waxing you could potentially save enough for that deposit on the new gadget or gizmo you were questioning if you could previously afford!

The IPL process works by placing a rectangular treatment head on the area where you want the hair removed, this head emits a bright light which is absorbed by the dark pigment in the hair follicle (known as melanin) and is then turned into heat energy: thus killing the hair follicle and preventing it from re-growing.

Laser differs from IPL because laser only emits one strand of the light spectrum, whereas IPL emits several different strands enabling us to treat more skin phototypes with greater results!

DepiCool offer all clients a FREE initial Patch Test appointment in any one of our UK centres and we also welcome you to check your skin phototype online using our simple and Free Skin-Test Tool.

Its worth bearing in mind though that IPL works best on lighter skin and darker hair, and there are only a few pre and post treatment guidelines you should adhere to before undergoing the treatment, so you don’t need to be Albert Einstein in order for it to be effective!

DepiCool offer a service second to none and do not compromise on the results or client service. For a full breakdown of our price list per area just visit our website or contact a member of the team on 020 3397 0084 where we will be only too pleased to help you!

Permanent Hair Removal for… Men?

Mar 4
2010

“If you teach a poor young man to shave himself, and keep his razor in order, you may contribute more to the happiness of his life than in giving him a thousand guineas.”
The words of Benjamin Franklin… so imagine what he would have said if he had known about permanent hair removal for men!  This would have been like buying the boy a Ferrari!

Well thankfully we have moved with the times, and in today’s modern and developed technological world, there have been advances that Benjamin Franklin could not have dreamed of!

Permanent hair removal and hair reduction for men is becoming a sure trend, and with evolvements such as laser and IPL men in today’s times are no longer shy by the thought of being trim and tidy, but in fact quite liberated to be hair free as well as care free!

DepiCool are noticing an increasing number of men opting for permanent hair removal. No longer is the trend across the Atlantic and solely sported by the likes of Beckham and Kutcher but instead is a widely accepted concept amongst most male’s of today: a new generation has arisen: The Metrosexual Man.

Not only have we noticed our core number of male clients expanding, but we too have noticed the number of male’s interested in the DepiCool franchise is also steadily on the increase, with more male entrepreneur’s and investors seeing the extensive possibilities that a franchise in permanent hair removal can offer them and their clients.

“Can I permanently remove hair my penis with IPL or Laser?”

Dec 1
2009

We often get asked if IPL is a suitable method for hair removal on the male genitalia or indeed directly on the shaft of the penis or testicles themselves.

DepiCool ManMany men are conscious of hair growing directly on these areas. However, hair growth in these regions is as common to males as when women have (often unwanted) facial hair or nipple hair. Unfortunately though, IPL is not a suitable method of hair removal for this particular area.

This is partly because it uses intensed pulsed beams of light which turn into heat, and it is this heat that damages the hair follicle thus inhibiting its growth. As you can undoubtedly imagine this does involve some degree of discomfort, but if we were to depilate the male anatomy with IPL, this discomfort would be extremely heightened being such a sensitive area especially to heat and temperature change of this nature.

Although IPL would not be suitable for hair reduction or hair removal on the male genitalia, a method you may wish to consider for permanent hair removal for this region would be Electrolysis.

This involves an electric current being applied with a very fine needle-shaped electrode, or metal probe into each hair follicle to destroy the root, thus weakening each hair from the base and eventually eliminating growth altogether.

You should also remember that the type of hair that grows in the pubic zone, is generally coarser than hair that grows for example on the legs, this means it will be more deeply rooted, so will be more painful when removing. But some men may see this as a more suitable option as it would give permanent results, as the saying goes… “No pain no gain”. As with IPL this method is something that would need to be done over a period of time, in order to respect the time frame it takes for the new hair to grow back. More information about the stages of hair growth.
