There are many ways to get rid of unwanted hair. For example, by shaving and using hair removal creams, the roots of the hair follicles remain intact and the hair grows back and annoying stubble arises. You have to repeat the hair removal method over and over which can cause skin irritation. Fortunately, there are other ways to get rid of those bored hairs.

Waxing removes the hair, including the root. This keeps the hair away longer. Waxing Groningen ensures that the hair temporarily stays away longer. After three to eight weeks, the hair tends to return. This is much longer than when the hair is shaved or creams are used.

Resin can be applied to the legs, buttocks, arms, neck, back and even the face. Thus, it is widely applicable and much more effective than the traditional hair removal method such as shaving.

How does groningen wax work?

To remove the hairs including the root, resin is applied to the skin with waxing Groningen .

The resin sticks to the hairs and when the resin is pulled from the skin, the hairs and hair follicles are removed in one go. The skin then remains hair-free and soft for weeks. Because the resin also sticks to the skin, this can also have some consequences for the skin.

If you have sensitive skin, the advice is not to choose waxing, but sugaring. This is a gentler method of hair removal.

Sugaring or waxing groningen?

Sugaring is a gentle, safe and modern method of removing hair from all parts of the body using a sugar paste. Sugaring is less painful and makes the skin soft while preventing allergic reactions and skin damage. You can apply it all over the body and it is suitable for all skin types.

Even for sensitive skin and for those who have skin problems such as psoriasis or eczema. Other advantages are that the hairs grow back more gently and sugaring also has a disinfecting effect, which means that inflammation occurs less quickly. There is also only a small chance of ingrown hairs and there are no known allergic reactions.

Which hair removal method do you choose?

You can determine which hair removal method suits you best together with one of our specialists in the salon.

She will look at your skin and listen to what your wishes and expectations are. If sugaring or waxing Groningen does not appear to be the best solution for you, or does not give the result you expect, then discuss the options in the field of IPL hair removal. This is a way to remove hair permanently. The treatment is performed using IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) and works using flashes of light.

These flashes are converted into heat via the pigment and the heat destroys the hair follicle, preventing it from growing back. Subsequently, the hairs fall out and remain in a so-called sleep mode for 5 to 10 years.

It is possible that after that time some hairs will start to grow again, but this is not necessary. If this is the case, then an extra IPL treatment is often sufficient to remove these hairs again.
