It's common knowledge that men usually are equipped with a luxuriant body hair than women. While in earlier times the men still wore chest hair toupees in the movies, hair is taboo for men nowadays. Thus, this change affects the society on one's own feelings. The pool man feels often uncomfortable and when leaving I held has often discreetly out for a called Zookeeper, which is intended to capture the runaway monkeys or bears.

Now Before creating hand, you should seek information about the current state of body hair at a glance in the mirror. Hair grows in men in the most unlikely places. For me all are affected:

Leg and Armbehaarung
Breast and Bauchbehaarung
Pubic and underarm hair
Shoulder, neck and Rückenbehaarung
In dark-haired men, the body hair is naturally particularly striking and if you still have a healthy hair growth, you can even stop at sub-zero temperatures naked outdoors without freezing it.

That would be no problem, if you were alone in the world. Often it is so that other people, especially women, their or other men get naked face. Excessive body hair often leads to rejection reactions in this fall. If you look at why so equal turn into a naked pig? No. I once took the trouble to let me on the net and women interviewed in my environment as they are male Köperbehaarung.

Except for the shoulder, neck and Rückenbehaarung few women find the male body hair to be unpleasant, unless it gets out of hand. Women do not want a nude newts! So I finally came to the conclusion that the removal of the neck, shoulder and Rückenbehaarung would be in an increased self-confidence. All other hair can remain and should only a small trim are subjected.

As far as I was but a few years ago and had tried to eliminate the neck, shoulder and Rückenbehaarung with a razor. The growing hair were still thick, bristly and increased significantly in the crowd. In addition, a very common shaving interval would have been the consequence.

Since my partner now gets used to my hair and had no problems with it, the issue was once done.

Now with me shortly is a Kurmaßnahme and there also regular water part of the program. At the thought of it, I felt a bit uncomfortable and in a diving suit I would certainly also make no good impression. Consequently, it was clear: The hair had gone! But how?

Shaving: The subject I had been through. However, I am informed and found out that there should be a new, great shaver in hangers format, the easy-raze back shaver for wet and dry shaving. The Amazon reviews looked not half that bad, but I did not want to shave me every 3 days back. The costs are relatively high with about 40 EUR compared to the benefits.
Depilatory: Hair removal creams destroy the keratin of the hair on the shaft by means of special active ingredients so that they can be easily scraped off about 10 minutes after a duration of action. For thick hair men may need an increased duration of action. The treatment interval corresponds to shave, because the hair root remains intact and the hair thus grow back. A tube of hair removal cream is already available for a few euros.
Waxing: The wax is applied in liquid form in the direction of growth, covered with a strip of cloth and jerkily against the direction of hair growth removed after a certain time. The short hurts, but the area is treated after several weeks free of hair because the hair together with root are pulled out. In a beauty parlor the cost of neck, shoulder and back hair removal usually be approximately 50 EUR to 80 EUR. If you want to grow out on their own at home, you can purchase a complete recovery room for about 40 EUR. In lush Body follow-up costs for wax cartridges and fleece strips have to be considered. A waxing is only possible from a minimum hair length of 3 mm!
Sugaring: A newly discovered method is the so-called sugaring.. A type of sugar paste is applied counter to the direction of growth and in contrast to the growth removed in the direction of growth, which should be significantly less painful. Since this method is based on an ancient oriental tradition, it is actually not so new. In Youtube there are even videos that describe the production of the paste and its use, so that when your own application will not be charged. Who the production is too expensive, a special sugar paste can also be ordered online.
IPL hair removal with light: light is composed of different wavelengths with different energy. The sunlight thus consists of a whole range of different wavelengths. The known UV light has a lot of energy and penetrates deep into the skin. For example, a sunburn is caused. When IPL hair removal fall light pulses of specific wavelengths that are filtered out of the total spectrum, on the skin. Here, the pulsed light penetrates just as deep into the skin to destroy the hair root. Because only hair at a certain stage of growth on the light method (eg, IPL or laser) appeal, a repeated treatment is required. In addition, the treatment only works with darker hair, gray and very light or red hair do not speak it at. In a Studio One treatment the complete neck, shoulder and back area will cost about 200 EUR. Since multiple treatments are needed to come here quickly together 600 EUR and more. Whether the hair stay away really permanently, is occupied not by long-term studies. Experience of individual users, however, indicate that the hairs grow back at least to a limited extent by a few months. Meanwhile, there are even devices for home use such as the Silk`n Flash & Go, which you already get for about 245 EUR. The Amazon reviewers give this unit even 4.5 star. For a hirsute back such a device, however, is not very effective, because only one section 4 is flashed cm², which can take an eternity. In addition, the flash lamps do not last long and there were extensive use must be probably replaced after the 2nd treatment.
Laser hair removal: When laser hair removal for some time known only light of a specific wavelength used to destroy the germ cells of the hair roots. The efficiency should be higher than the IPL hair removal. Again, the same restrictions as in the IPL method apply. The number of treatments will appear with up to 12 within one year significantly higher. The cost per treatment for the neck, shoulders and back are the same.
Nadelepilation: When Nadelepilation a fine, current-carrying tube is guided in the channel hair and destroys the hair root. It is therefore necessary to treat each hair individually. In contrast to treatment with light, skin type or hair color do not matter. A large-scale and therefore lengthy treatment of back, shoulder or neck is rare to get below 300 EUR. Again, multiple treatments are needed. In contrast to treatment with IPL or laser hair should really never grow back. But the treatment is not entirely painless. The important thing is to be carried out the treatment by a specialist, because at incorrectly set parameters scarring and inflammation are the consequences.
Epilator: An epilator is basically composed of a rotating roller with many small tweezers that automatically open and close and then pull the hair together with the root of the skin. Since the hairs are only torn, the treatment is not permanent, but long-lasting, as when shaving. In addition, the growing hair are fine and the pain subsides with the number of treatments. Prices start already at 30 EUR and good epilator can cost up to 150 EUR and more. Expensive devices operate most thorough and can even pull very short hair. There epilator with various attachments, such as a trimmer attachment. In addition to the purchase price will be no additional costs.
I have first occupied myself with all these methods with regard to the removal of hair in the back, neck and shoulder area:

When waxing and sugaring the minimum hair length I was an eyesore. So one must first live a while with the hair before you can come to grips with her again. Then there are the permanent, ever-recurring costs for the removal in the studio or the purchase of wax or wax cartridges for a guard station.

When shaving or using depilatory creams success is not visible and long to repeat the application after a few days.

The methods of permanent hair removal with light is not really guarantee 100% success, however, costs a lot of money, especially in heavily coated with hair, as is the case with me. In addition, my beginning, gray hair would thus not removable.

The Nadelepilation attracted me already, since it is to be truly 100% permanently. Contrast deterrent are the costs, since each hair must be removed individually and multiple treatments are needed. For my hair the millions of hours or days would last. In addition, the pain should be stronger than during epilation.

An epilator is also not painless to apply. That the new generation of devices promise but clearly cause less pain than before and even to remove hair from the length of a grain of sand. With a single application per month, the hair removal would be less cumbersome than shaving. Compared to the removal with wax or sugar paste, no additional running costs. That sounds pretty good, right? Were it not for the pain !!! ???

However, I looked around for suitable devices. For less than 70 EUR, there is already the Panasonic ES-WD72 Wet / Dry epilator with many essays. Then I remembered the Braun 7681 WD Silk-épil 7 Legs, Body and Face Wet and Dry eye and its advertising promises:

Stimulates the skin during epilation and reduces the Zupfempfinden for maximum skin comfort
Recommended by dermatologists
40 tweezers have been developed so that they engage at the perfect angle and by close contact with the skin even the shortest hair removal (0.5 mm).
Just to name a few of the promises that were buying decision for me: Less pain and removal of very short hairs!

But I was not sure at 100%, and that way you just can not return again toiletries, I almost decided against it. But then I saw that Braun offers a 100 day money-back guarantee. That was then the reason that I use the Braun 7681 WD Silk-épil 7 Legs, Body and Face Wet and Dry ordered me. This epilator is one of the most expensive models of Brown, as he still has some attachments, facilitate my work. The more expensive model with the dual-blade Venus still has an integrated blade, which easily cuts did not remove hair. Many essays of Braun 7681 WD Silk-épil 7 Legs, Body and Face Wet and Dry are not included in the dual model.

2. order

The regular price for this epilator is about 160 EUR. At Amazon, I got the Braun 7681 WD Silk-épil 7 Legs, Body and Face Wet and Dry sent for about 99 EUR already 2 days after the order. With 4.5 stars in the currently 55 Reviews me the device seemed a good choice. Nevertheless, the evaluations were carried out by women and the positive reports regarding the low perception of pain may not necessarily be true in men, which generally are indeed less capable of suffering.

5. Operation

Operation is very simple. If you want to epilate you just put the epilator on the device until it locks. Because of epilators with this article may not be operated alone, one of the Epilieraufsätze must be plugged into the terminal yet. These will click into place. For shaving or trimming removed the entire epilator by pressing the button located at the back and sets the shaving attachment on the unit.

To switch on the fuse located at Einschaltrad pressing down and turning the wheel to the desired position (1 or 2). The epilator moves slowly in the high speed and away you go.

First I went thoughtlessly with the device in the shower and had equal losgelegt with Schulterbehaarung. Pain let by, I thought to myself only and wanted to give up. After I had slept one night about it, I decided a new trial and asked my partner to help, but that does not have Epiliererfahrung

6. Shaving

So first, the back, neck and shoulder hair was once reduced to a few millimeters with the shaving. The shaver with the trimmer attachment is much more thorough than my trimmer. That's why you can prior to epilation also equal to reduce the remaining body hair to a manageable level, without an additional device having to have.

After I prepared before my 7-day beard for wet shaving. A complete dry shave also works as a normal razor, but this is less thorough than a wet shave. Since I have shaved always wet in the face, I do not use the epilator for the beard removal. But that was not buying decision.

7. epilation

I renounce the dentist on spraying and can endure the pain of the drill, I had to go through it. The pain of the first trial was forgotten In addition, the back should in any case not even be depilated, that way you can not perform optimally the device and if you do not have rubber arms, also not come anywhere.

My partner turned the unit on level 1 and put it first in a lower third. This area was absolutely to endure and tweeted a little, that's all. After 10 minutes we went to the center back. Here the pain became stronger and I had to take a little break. Especially on the side of it tweeted already fierce. Even that was done by a good 10 minutes. The final step was the shoulder and Nackenbehaarung and the upper third of the body to Rückenbehaarung. In the shoulder area, I had already violently biting his teeth, but in the neck area of ​​pain was then places very violently to unbearable, just like in the upper third of the back. But I held still by a further 25 minutes and the result was an extremely smooth back. Both visually and in sensing with your fingers no stubble were palpable. No hair so it was demolished, but really removes all the hair together with the root. The pain gave way to a pleasant feeling of happiness.

My partner had only ever tried at a young age to epilation and given it the same again, because it was too painful. After cleaning the unit tried it also on the legs and only wondered why the epilation would have done so much to me, because she would feel hardly anything.

Since then, a few weeks are now gone and the hair on the back of course again grown, however, significantly reduced the amount and thinner. A few days ago the procedure was therefore repeated with the result that I hardly felt pain. Presumably, this is due to the small amount of hair and finer structure in connection with a certain habituation.

8 Skin Care after epilation

About Here there are divided opinions. Some say one should after epilation nothing lubricate the skin and others swear by creams. I thought that a good skin lotion can not hurt and irritation minimized. That's why I had then the special men Creme Village For Men Only Body Cream 500ml ordered me with Vitamin E with. The cream is approximately EUR 5 per 500 ml very favorable and contributed in having to remove the skin irritations quickly. She looks cool and absorbs quickly. With 5 stars in the Amazon reviews, it was worth trying, even though I usually prefer to try out creams before.

9 Cleaning

After work, the Epillierer should always be thoroughly cleaned. Because it is waterproof, you can simply use the shower head to. Fixed hair is dissolved with the brush supplied. Following is advisable to treat it with a disinfectant, this purpose one can use special instrument disinfectants or simply apply a small amount of isopropanol with a brush directly on the tweezers.

9 Conclusion

Although I own the unit for only a few weeks, I venture an initial conclusion. The pain was the first time unpleasant but usually tolerable. If you consider that now grow significantly less hair and skin become accustomed over time to the epilation process and the associated pain, I'll stay with this method. I assume that I would have the pain with other devices probably not endured. I particularly like that the same are several articles here. So you can trim the Braun 7681 WD Silk-épil 7 Legs, Body and Face Wet and Dry prior to epilation the breast, armpit and stomach hair. With just under 100 EUR, he is not one of the best epilation. But he does his job perfectly and there are virtually no consumable costs. Moreover, we compare the costs over a longer period, the Brown 7681 WD Silk-épil 7 Legs, Body and Face Wet and Dry is clearly at the top. Even now I can say, not to accept 100 day money-back guarantee to complete.

My partner is now also switched after decades of shaving on epilation. Due to the water resistance of the epilator can be easily disinfected with liquid assets and thus be used without problems for two.
