Happy man with no ingrown hairs

Ingrown hairs can be extremely uncomfortable. Laser Hair Removal with Nina L’Allure can remove the problem for good!


An ingrown hair is one that has grown back into your skin instead of rising up from it.

Sometimes, dead skin can clog a hair follicle. That forces the hair to grow sideways under your skin, rather than up and out. Or if you cut naturally curly hair too short, the sharpened end of the hair can pierce your skin, causing an ingrown hair.


Ingrown hair irritates your skin and most commonly appears in areas where the skin is shaved or waxed (beard, legs, pubic region), it can appear anywhere. They produce raised red bump, like a little pimple, which can sometimes become infected and turn into painful pus-filled sores causing discomfort.


Anyone can get Ingrown Hairs


Ingrown Hairs tend to be more of a problem in people with curly or coarse hair. Anything which causes the hair to be broken off unevenly with a sharp tip can cause ingrown hairs. Shaving is the leading cause, followed by waxing and tight clothing.

Ingrown hairs often pop up in areas where you shave, including your face and neck, scalp, legs, armpits, chest, back and pubic area.


Ingrown hairs can be itchy and embarrassing, but they often go away on their own without having to do anything. If they do not go away, ingrown hairs can become infected, darken the skin, or leave behind scars, especially if you have scratched or picked the ingrown hairs areas.

Modern state-of-the-art laser technology makes it possible to carry out laser treatment on every skin shade—from fair to very dark.

We use lasers that are designed to precisely and efficiently remove hair from literally anywhere on your body.

The laser targets the hair follicle just below the skin. When the follicle absorbs the heat from the laser, it gets damaged and stops growing. Because the laser only focuses on the melanin in the hair follicle, there is no long-term harm to the surrounding tissue.

This particular treatment for removing body hair is painless. It removes 95 percent of the hair permanently, and it is also highly cost-effective in comparison to the other types of hair removal methods.

laser hair removal for men

Traditionally, hair removal may have been considered more of a woman's domain.


But attitudes about hair removal for men have come a long way.


It's your body and your life. 




If you want to keep your hair in all its natural glory, go for it! If you see yourself as more of a smooth operator, Nina L’Allure Laser Hair Removal has you covered. 


There are several ways to keep body hair in check. No matter how much hair you have, manscaping is probably something you’ve thought about. These days, no part of the body is off limits.


Manscaping addresses body hair removal for men, and ranges from "take it all off" to "let it grow!" And somewhere in between all of that, you'll find varying degrees of maintenance, from trimming for a refined natural look to precision shaping for a more sculpted appearance. It's really a matter of personal preference. 


Removing body hair is a personal choice, and the reasons to remove body hair are as varied as the people making the choice. You may feel cleaner and more confident or want to enhance muscle definition if you work out regularly. Others simply prefer a smooth look or enjoy a heightened sensation when snuggling with that special someone. Sometimes it's a matter of style or taking care of wayward, overly assertive nose and ear hair.

Hair removal also has a long-standing association with athletics. Many body builders, bikers, runners, swimmers and other athletes remove hair to show off hard-earned muscles, prevent chafing, reduce drag and more.


At Nina L’Allure we offer Manscaping, Men’s Laser Hair Removal, from head to toe. We  specialize in Men’s Brazilian & Bikini Services. 


Contact Nina for a consultation as every person and treatment is specific depending on the size and areas chosen.

Professional Hair Removal methods are no longer a luxury for many; they are necessary and affordable for both women and men.


A variety of hair removal methods are available on the market. At times it is hard to choose the most suitable ones, so it is important for an esthetician to educate clients on hair removal methods.


In this article we are focusing on waxing vs. laser hair removal, two of the most effective and popular procedures to get rid of unwanted hair.


Procedure for Waxing

Waxing consists of applying wax (whether hard wax or soft wax) onto the area we want to get rid of hair and then ripping it off in the opposite direction of hair growth. In waxing, the hair is pulled out at the root. And It hurts! Depending on the waxed area and the client’s sensitivity threshold, anti-inflammatory or antibiotic creams might also be applied. The procedure can go from fifteen minutes to half an hour depending on the size of the area.


Procedure for Laser Hair Removal

In laser hair removal treatments a technician gives pulses of highly concentrated laser light with a specific wavelength and pulse on a particular area where they want to get rid of hair. Laser light heats up the hair follicles and the hair pigment absorbs this light, which causes the root of the follicle to get damaged and debilitated. Laser light is amazingly fast, covering all the hairs in an area of about the size of a quarter in one second. Small areas such as the upper lip can be treated in less than a minute, and large areas, such as the back or legs, may take up to an hour.


Benefits

  • Waxing provides smooth skin immediately and for three to four weeks, depending on individual hair growth rate.

  • With Laser Hair Removal, the frequency and density of hair growth will then decrease progressively until the hair follicle is dead. 

  • Treatments should usually be scheduled every six weeks until hair is completely eliminated, which may take up to seven sessions. 

  • The absence of hair will be noticeable since the first session of laser treatment and over the first month.


Laser Hair Removal helps improve conditions such as acne, congested skin, and ingrown hairs. Laser hair removal is the best hair removal method if you’re looking for long-term results. Some people see permanent results, while most enjoy results that last for months or years.


If you’re trying to save time, laser hair removal is the way to go. The sessions are quick and easy. Even if you’re having treatment on a large area of the body, you’ll only be under the laser for a few minutes at a time.


The biggest pro of all is that you can have laser hair removal on any part of the body. It is impossible to wax your back or your full bikini area by yourself. As for pain, laser hair removal services don’t hurt nearly as much as waxing. Most people say that the pulse of the laser feels like a rubber band snapping on the skin.


Nina L’Allure Laser Hair Removal Studios put safety first and startsthe procedure with a patch test on a small portion of your skin, and once this is done will recommend the best personalized treatment for you.
