Motive & Styling for a nice intimate area
Men used to shave their faces - that's
it. Then women began to reach for the Lady-Shave, first legs and armpits
were tuned, then the hair in the middle of the body was brought to grips.
The men also began to trim back and chest hair and also made it
between the legs with the razor.
As fashion becomes scarcer, nudity more normal, aesthetic demands
increase, pubic hair removal becomes more and more popular, and at the same
time depilation of the body is considered socially accepted by men as well.
The Intimrasur and Sharm hair removal is
considered especially among young people as sexy.
The US series "Sex and the City"
contributed to the spread of intimate shaving and pubic hair removal, after it
had gone in the mid-1990s in a row on this issue.
In 2001 appeared in Playboy for the first time a nude model with
hairless intimate area. Meanwhile, most models (over 60 percent) in the
magazine Hugh Hefners have gotten rid of their pubic hair.
Many women claim to feel more feminine and attractive without
pubic hair. The smooth, hairless skin is considered pleasurable and erotic
by pubic hair removal, which makes it a pleasant feeling during intercourse,
especially during oral sex.
Even shaving itself is often perceived as an
erotic act. A smooth genital area is experienced by the sexual partner as
pleasant and there is even statistically proven a positive relationship between
the frequency of sexual intercourse and pubic hair removal.
Pubic hair can be cut off or shaved or remove
the hair completely with the root, eg by waxing.
The first is quick and painless, the other hurts, but lasts
longer, is better for the skin and the hair does not grow as stubble but with a
soft tip. Epilating is also a method whereby the pubic hairs are pulled
out of the skin with an electric device, also very painful and not as gentle on
the skin as the so-called Brazilian waxing known since the mid-1990s, with hot
wax on the areas to be depilated is applied. Once the wax has set, it is
pulled off with a quick jerk, including hair.
HAIR REMOVAL METHODS
Shave
Advantage: The fastest and cheapest method. If it is
done with a good shave (change blades regularly!), It does not hurt.
Disadvantage: The hair grows back after two to three days. It
needs to be improved regularly.
waxen
Advantage: The tearing of the hair with cold or warm
wax provides for at least three weeks holding smoothness.
Disadvantage: Extremely painful and can cause that in the
region never again something grows. "Years of injury to the hair
roots can cause scarring and permanent disruption of growth," explains Dr. Stavermann.
creams
Advantage: Completely painless, lasts up to a week.
Disadvantage: For the Bikini Zone depilatory creams are not
recommended, their chemical content can irritate the skin.
epilation
Advantage: The effect lasts a little longer than waxing.
Disadvantage: Also very painful, there are often side effects. In
addition to redness, pimples can occur in the treated area. "It can
even lead to severe inflammation of the root," says Dr. Stavermann.
lasers
Advantage: The heat destroys the hair follicles forever. Especially
with dark hair a very effective method.
Disadvantage: Most expensive method and tedious. It takes
at least four sessions, which cost between 45 (upper lip) and 690 euros (whole
body).
Laser treatment should be
performed by a doctor, as inexperienced handling of the light beam can cause
burns. Then it's just getting hot - not pretty.
Another option is a depilatory cream, which
removes the hair with the help of chemicals, but the aggressive ingredients
should not necessarily be left to his genital area. In addition, there are
the methods of permanent removal, including a laser epilation, in which hair
roots are deserted.
What is
removed where?
In addition, there are different hairstyle trends to get the
bikini area "in shape": complete (Hollywood cut) or as a triangle
(American, triangle or bikini), as a runway and with the labia (Landing Strip
or Brazilian).
In
women, venous hillocks are depilated, as well as the labia, but also the groins
or thighs. In the men, the Intimrasur includes penis shaft, scrotum, pubic
symphysis and anus.
Especially
young people get rid of according to polls of hair in the genital area. Among
the under-20s, up to 94 per cent are among female respondents, over 80 per cent
among young men.
From the age of 30, the percentage that regularly works on
intimate shaving decreases.
Pubic
hair styles
In the 1990s, the trend to pubic hairstyles came up. The hair
is trimmed to certain shapes: Triangles, diamonds, flashes, arrows or letters
are popular.
For
women, vertical Iroquois is one of the most popular forms. The
"Iro" is either shortened or worn as a complete strip down to the
labia. Flat shapes such as triangle, heart or V are effective in dense,
dark or possibly colored pubic hair.
THE MOST POPULAR INTIMATE HAIRSTYLES
Brazilian
cut
All pubic hairs are removed except for
a narrow strip on the pubis. This intimate shaving is also called Landing
Strip. The Brazilian complete also the hairs on the outer labia are
removed.
Hollywood
The favorite intimate shave of the
stars - completely naked. The Hollywood cut completely removes any hair.
bikini
With the bikini cut, only the outer
edges of the pubic triangle are removed, so that no hairs look out of the
bikini panties when sunbathing.
Hearts,
arrows, pimples
If you like, you can also shave a
creative haircut into pubic hair. There should even be women who have a
Gucci-G pruned.
You can also tint the hair that has stood still or dye it
permanently, but it is important to remember that the pubic hairs regrow in
natural color.
There are now some hairdressing salons specializing in pubic
hairstyles.
History
of Intimate Shaving
Intimate shaving permeates all cultures and eras. In ancient
Egypt, ancient Greece, the Roman Empire, Islamic and many African cultures and
South America, a hairless body was and is a beauty ideal.
Women
removed hair on the body, but also eyebrows and scalp hair. In addition to
aesthetic reasons, this was also hygienic: lice and parasites could not implant
themselves in this way. Even then, beeswax or caramel, but also scissors
and epilation with sandpaper were used for hair removal.
