Waxing is one of the most popular hair removal methods, if not the most popular and for good reason. It is a longer lasting method of hair removal in comparison to shaving as it removes the hair from the follicle. Hair also doesn't grow back as thick. Shaving you cut off the hair, that results in a blunt cut, hairs aren't naturally like that. That’s why you are left with the stubbly feeling after shaving. With waxing the hair is removed from the follicle or the root so when it grows back it is with a nice fine tapered end. Over time hair could stop growing back as thick completely and you will be left with a sparser cover of hair.
