how long does it take to grow back with each way?I want to give myself a bikini wax, so shall i use veet hair removal cream or veet waxing strips?
Hair removal cream removes the hair at the surface level of the skin. Thus, it grows back just as quickly as if you had shaved instead. Waxing removes the hairs by the root, and it takes some time for the hair to form again, and grow out to the surface of your skin. You can usually go anywhere from 2-4 weeks when you wax. It differs for everyone though. Some girls can go only 2 weeks, or even less while others can go 5 or 6 weeks - and even longer in between waxings. I go an average of 3 weeks or so between waxings. So, how long it lasts really depends on how fast your hairs grow back


For best results, I would suggest going to Sally Beauty, or even online to somewhere like Amazon.com, and buy a Gigi waxing kit. The starter kit - which includes everything you need to get started with, sells for only like $42 or so. That includes a wax warmer, a 14 ounce tin of wax, wooden applicators, lotions, and more. I have been doing DIY waxing for a long time now, and have found that that hot wax is far superior to a cold wax such as Veet strips. And, the waxes that you use with the wax warmer are kept at a constant temperature, so no need to keep running back and forth to the microwave or wherever to re-heat the wax. One other thing is that a company such as Gigi makes a whole line of waxes, and waxing supplies. I find that their waxes are superior to drug store waxing kits in terms of quality. Its just a much better, and more effective waxing product line than you will be able to purchase in drug stores. I think that it's also more cost effective as well if you buy the kit. Then you just have to buy the strips, wax and applicators as needed. And those aren't all that expensive. A 14 ounce tin of Gigi wax costs about $10 or so. And one 14 ounce tin will be enough to last you for several leg waxings.


But, it's totally up to you what you use, and which brand. I'm only making some suggestions based on my years of DIY home waxing experience.


Good luck!I want to give myself a bikini wax, so shall i use veet hair removal cream or veet waxing strips?
depends on if u like pain! the waxing kills and you can rarely do it properly on yourself and it ends up growing back the next day - so all that pain for nothing! so i'd say the cream
Depends on your individual hair growth pattern. 14 days, generally, I think.
well if u can handle the pain...wax.....it will last longer and may come back thinner





the bad thing about the hair removal cream is that it stinks.........its basically the same as shaving...it comes back fast
With the cream you only get a couple of days if you are lucky. It actually burns my skin and it isn't much better than shaving.





Waxing strips are the way to go. Keep the skin taut when you pull, and pull against the direction of the hair. It should last from a few weeks to a bit over a month, depending on how your hair grows. Some packets say 6 weeks, I've never had 6 weeks hair-free though.





The only trouble with waxing is you have to grow the hair before you can wax it which is a pain in between times.
Use the mini waxing strips. they work for a couple of weeks. Rip 'em off quickly to minimise the pain! The cream stinks and doesn't last long at all.
