It\u2019s official: Getting a professional wax has made its way onto the must-do grooming list for dudes. Unibrow giving you grief? Weird little ear hair on the rise? Stubble out of control? And don\u2019t get us started on the nose. Let\u2019s just say, wherever you need to smooth things over, waxing is the way to go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Especially when you consider waxing will give you back all that time you spend in the bathroom plucking and preening. By opting for a professional wax rather than trying to navigate tweezers (hello, ingrown hairs!), it’s claimed your hair could take a few weeks to grow back<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt\u2019s kind of a set and forget it type of thing,\u201d says Deidra Green, training manager at the European Wax Center.<\/a> \u201cI think that people look at waxing as being high maintenance, but really it\u2019s not, because you\u2019re decreasing the time spent on your grooming.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Perhaps the best news is that there are other benefits of waxing beyond getting rid of annoying hairs. Below, read about the surprising ways waxing helps your skin. So go ahead\u2014get on board. Just be sure to arm yourself first with grooming solutions specifically designed to prep, treat and calm post waxed skin, prevent ingrown hair, and keep your skin smooth and hydrated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It Exfoliates Instantly<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

You\u2019ve no doubt heard that you need to exfoliate to get rid of blackheads and dead flaky skin. Well, the bonus of waxing is that it may also leave your skin clearer and silky smooth. \u201cWaxing itself is a form of exfoliation. If you have dead skin, it\u2019s going to come off on the strip along with the hairs during a wax treatment, \u201d Green explains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It Can Prevent In-Grown Hairs<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Few things are more annoying than an ingrown hair. But there\u2019s more good news: Waxing also goes to work on these too. \u201cSome people are more prone to ingrown hairs than others, depending on the way that their hair grows out of the follicle. If you\u2019re somebody who struggles with in-grown hairs after shaving, then definitely try to switch to waxing, because when we wax, we\u2019re pulling the hair out by the root, as opposed to just cutting it off at the surface,\u201d Green says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bye-Bye Body Odor<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our hair holds onto our body odor. Ew, but true. Which is yet another reason to engage in professional waxing, says Green. The reason is bacteria lives in body hair,<\/a> so by removing the hair with waxing, you remove the source of some of the odor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There, you heard it here first: Waxing is something like a facial, tweezers and deodorant all rolled into one. So what are you waiting for?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
