Undergoing hair removal procedure each month sends chills down your spine and you immediately cringe as you feel the pain of plucking and waxing.  Have you really looked for better options then? The advancement in technology has given way to methods that are less painful and delivers results permanently.

This medical procedure requires expert handling and thorough training before one can perform on a client. It also carries its share of potential risks and hence, before getting the procedure done, as a customer, you should check if the salon's credentials are verified and treatment is genuine.

Experts of a beauty salon suggest a few tips to prep up for the laser hair removal procedure. Firstly, avoid sun exposure a month and a half prior to and post treatment. Skin damage caused by the sub renders the procedure less effective and is likely to cause complications post it.

Prior to the procedure at the beauty salon, ensure that you clean up the treatment area the hair will be trimmed short as required for the procedure to work and the laser equipment adjusted according to the hair location, thickness, and color, keeping in mind the color of the skin too. The technician sets the light source on the area accordingly. Protecting the eye is important and hence, you will be given a mask to wear over. The outer epidermis would also need protection and hence, a cold gel will be applied which encourages the light to penetrate through effectively.

The technician uses the best of equipment settings to direct light appropriately on areas that require treatment for several minutes to test for any reactions. If no reactions, the procedure follows through else, a different procedure will be recommended. Once the entire process is complete, medicated lotion is applied and ice packs are placed on the treated area to ease discomfort. You will be given a schedule that marks all your session dates and once a month crosses through, the technician will check if you need more sessions.

Using a Sunblock, Scrub and Hair Colour Effectively

Exposure to UVA or UVB accounts for 90% of the symptoms of untimely skin maturing that often lead to wrinkles. The most vital skin-care product offered to stop this is sunblock lotions, however most people do not make use of it properly. Crucial factors to consider with the use of sunscreen are the range of UV radiation absorbed, the quantity of sunscreen used, and the frequency of application.

An Effective Sunscreen

The SPF degree determines the amount of UVB absorption, however there is no technique of reporting this. The only method to identify if a sunscreen shields against UVA and UVB radiation is to look at the ingredients. A good broad-spectrum sunblock lotion must have an SPF of a minimum of 15 with protective agents.

Sunscreen Application

Most people utilize sunscreen incorrectly by do not apply it enough. They use just 25% to 50% of the recommended amount. Lotions ought to be applied liberally to all sun-exposed areas such that it develops a film over the skin surface. It takes 20 to 30 minutes for the lotion to get absorbed by the skin, so it needs to be used at least half an hour before going out. Such lotions must also be the last to be applied on the face given that some sunscreens could damage the natural moisture.

Using a scrub for suntan removal

A body scrub is preferred for sun tan treatment. It not only de-tans but moisturizes your skin, leaving it smooth, soft and supple. It is finished with a rough product like salt, coffee, rice bran, almonds, pecan hulls, and generally combined with some sort of massage therapy oil for added skin benefits. If you use salt, it’s called a salt scrub, salt radiance or sea salt scrub. The exfoliation is followed with a shower and an application of a rejuvenating body lotion. Do note that this is not a massage therapy.

Colour your hair for added sun protection and external damages

Among the numerous reasons, I prefer using hair colour with this technique so much is that it looks great on nearly any individual and it's a great service to upsell. You'd be shocked how many customers would look dreadful if you place light colours at their roots, but when you place them below the hairline, it highlights sections in the most vivid yet subtle manner.

Hair & Skin Protection

When festivals arrive, the first thing that comes to your mind is the celebrations; however, have we ever thought the consequential effect that a festival can have on our body? I guess not. One festival that instantly gets highlighted is Holi, the festival of colour and joy that is pompously celebrated across India, at the end of winter, on the last full moon day of the Phalguna lunar month. This is the day when colours are used on each other to welcome the advent of the spring festival. Consequentially, it is then that our skin and hair gets affected tremendously.

Most colours that we get nowadays are synthetic-based or contain harmful chemicals. This gravely affects our hair colour, texture and sheen no matter which hair product we use. It also causes skin irritation, allergy, rashes, acne or other skin ailments. Hence, I have come up with a few pointers to share with all before you expose yourself to such colours.

Hair and Skin needs added protection during these festive seasons. Hence, for Hair protection, apply henna or mehendi to protect your natural hair colour, apply almond or coconut on your hair to coat it and protect it from damage and tie it up neatly behind. Also, use a good quality hair product comprising of a shampoo, conditioner and serum for extra protection before going out to enjoy Holi.

Hence, ensure that you use an appropriate sunscreen lotion that has ingredients with high sun protective factor. Apply liberally all over the face, neck, arms and exposed parts of the skin for protection against sun exposure especially during day time. Next use a few drops of almond or baby oil over your facial area, neck, arms and exposed areas. Apply a lip balm with SPF protection of neutral colour and a waterproof Kajal to avoid smudges especially when playing with colour water. If you wish to enhance your eyes, use a smudge-proof eyeliner and waterproof mascara after grooming.
