Are you constantly in a rush? Do you hate shaving? Do you suffer from irritated skin? This blog is your sign to stop shaving and start waxing! I have listed 7 benefits of waxing over shaving.

1. It lasts longer: When you shave your hair, it only trims the hair and will grow back in a matter of a few days. When you wax the hair, it pulls it out of the root. Waxing can last anywhere from 4-6 weeks.

2. Waxing is time consuming: Why spend 30-45 minutes that you don’t even have shaving your entire body once a week. Getting waxed only takes about 20 minutes and it is something that you only have to do every 4-6 weeks.

3. No more cuts and razor burn: No matter how long you have been shaving or how careful you are, there is still going to be a time when you cut yourself. If you are someone who has fast hair growth and you have to shave often, your razor burn is definitely a problem. When you wax, there is no such thing as cutting yourself or bumps after you wax.

4. The hair grows back thinner: Because you are ripping the hair from the follicle, it makes the hair grow back thinner. When you switch to waxing for a long period of time, your hair becomes so thin and may begin to not even grow back.

5. Your skin feels smoother: Shaving can cause stubble because you are not taking off the whole hair; you are just cutting it. Because the hair is pulled from the root, it results in a smoother finish.

6. Exfoliates your skin: Waxing exfoliates your skin because it pulls off all of the dead skin cells that are sitting on the surface of you skin. Dead skin can cause a build up of dirt and oils on your skin leading to your skin to become irritated. Waxing your skin will lead to healthier skin down the road.

7. Your skin will become less irritated: When you choose to shave, your skin is more likely to grow irritable. By choosing to wax, you are minimizing ingrown hairs, irritation, bumps, and redness that are easily caused by shaving.
