Waxing

Girls, we’ve all done it before—wrestled with a razor in front of our bathroom mirror as we fervently removed those stubborn stubbles, usually in an early morning frenzy or right before an important date. No matter how hard we try, the hairs just kept coming back, each time quicker than the last and more determined to reclaim their turf. I used to believe shaving everyday was just part of life, a nuisance, but tolerable. I thought that once you entered the nightmare cycle of shaving, there was no way out. Well I’m telling you now, there’s IS a way out — waxing!

Sounds painful? It is. I’m not going to lie. Waxing is not for the faint-hearted; it is a deliriously painful experience for “waxing virgins”—one that makes you shed a tear or two, or downright sob like a baby in a dirty diaper. I suggest you find yourself a professional who knows what she’s doing and if you happen to find a well-trained Esthetician whose skills greatly reduce your discomfort, cling onto her!

For those who want to try waxing at home, I recommend taking a hot shower beforehand just to soften the hairs, open up the pores and in turn, reduce the amount of pain you’ll experience. You can also place a bottle of body lotion in the fridge and slather the chilled cream onto your skin immediately after to calm and soothe the areas you’ve just waxed. Don’t forget to exfoliate regularly to remove dead-skin buildup that could lead to ingrown hairs.

So why is waxing the better choice? Here are 7 reasons:

Unlike shaving, waxing completely removes the hairs from their roots and the result typically lasts anywhere from two to eight weeks, amazing isn’t it?

For some who shave religiously, the pores on their legs seem to explode in size as the stubbles become tougher and thicker, making the appearance of their otherwise gorgeous legs less appealing. After a period of repeated waxing, you’ll notice that the re-sprouted hairs are finer and less noticeable. In some cases, hairs in some areas might stop growing back altogether!

Waxing is also very fast; it quickly strips away hairs without the hassle of going back and forth with a tiny razor, making it the more efficient choice for busy individuals.

Waxing is safer than most other methods of hair removal. The blades on a razor could cause bleeding and cuts that look unsightly and potentially lead to inflammation or infection.

Besides removing the hairs on top of the skin, waxing also helps get rid of dead skin cells, revealing smoother, more rejuvenated skin.

The ingredients in waxing products are usually made from natural sources, making it the safer, healthier choice compared to other topical hair removal creams which contain harsh chemicals that irritate the skin

Shrinking Violet Body Wrap

Can you lose fat cells?

This question comes up frequently, particularly since spending many hours performing the marvellous Shrinking Violet Body Wrap Treatment.

During one hour on a warmed bed, covered in a beautiful oil and wrapped in heat retaining wrapture, clients are getting off the bed, having lost on average 4-8 inches - sometimes more, requiring no invasive or painful treatments.

The one question always asked - where have my fat cells gone - have I lost them?

I've done a fair bit of research into this, to answer this question as informatively and honestly as I can. The mainstream consensus is no you can't. Fat cells are filled with fat over time, and become larger. Eventually if they become very large, they can divide and increase in numbers, and unfortunately never lose them - BUT - the good news - you can SHRINK them!

Once we get to adulthood, the number of fat cells normally remains the same. When you put on weight, the fat cells enlarge in size. When you lose weight, this has the opposite effect.

Shrinking Violet helps to shrink the fat cells. When followed up with a good and clean eating plan, healthy exercise and avoiding stimulants such as sodas, caffeine, alcohol and sugars, these fat cells will remain in their shrunken state - hence you KEEP the inches off.

Hope that makes the fat cell question a little easier to understand.

Obviously this post is my opinion and carried out with my own research. There are lots of detailed blogs and posts regarding this issue :))
