Depilation It has long been natural for women to try to remove excess hair and down for aesthetic reasons and body care. History teaches us that as early as 1500 BC, men removed their hair with a hair remover that consisted of blood of several animals, hippopotamus fat, turtle carcass and antimony trisulfide. The Romans also refer to epilatory compositions, some of which contained caustic soda as a prominent ingredient. Cleopatra removed her hair, so unwanted, with strips of fine cloth bathed in hot wax. Although chemical depilatories are considered a contemporary invention, the process of hair removal by chemical decomposition appeared in ancient times. In fact, its development was dormant for centuries, and several other alternatives were introduced. There are several types of epilation, the most important and efficient of which you can see below.

Depilation consists of the deliberate removal of hair and/or body hair in a definitive or temporary way.

Depilation with the wax consists in sticking a special wax on the skin and pulling out the hair.

The method of hair removal with the hot wax is the best of all existing methods of hair removal.

Although it is the best method of hair removal, both hot and cold waxes are very irritating to the skin and a dermatologist should always be consulted before using them. In both cases, the hair is removed at the root, so with each epilation the hair is born weaker and thinner, but this decrease can be considered significant only after many years of epilation.
