Hair removal creams are made from some chemicals (calcium hydroxide, sodium or calcium thioglycolate, etc.) which can dissolve unwanted hair at the roots. Hair removal creams are usually applied to the hair for a short period of time. After some time (depending on quality of cream and hair density) the hair removal cream eats away the hair shaft, sometimes below the surface of the skin. Most hair removal creams are usually left on for approximately 5-10 minutes and then wiped off with a warm towel at, or somewhat below skin level.
Hair removal creams can give you few days without any hair on smooth skin – the effect of hair removal creams is short because they remove hair only from the surface. Hot shower would be recommended before applying the cream – it will soften the hairs and open skin pores, allowing the cream to work better.
Some women could be sensitive to hair removal creams. Depending on skin type, some hair removal creams can irritate or burn your skin and can leave your skin red. If you want to try these creams, test it on a patch of skin elsewhere on your body first.
