Most modern women choose to do hair removal, not only on the legs and armpits, but also in the bikini area.
However, waxing in the bikini area has some hidden dangers that few women know or imagine, but they should…
Sexually Transmitted Diseases (STDs)
Whether with a razor or a wax, hair removal also causes tiny wounds to the skin, especially when it comes to the most sensitive area all over your body.
Any infection that requires contact to be transmitted will be easier for you to catch if there is a break in the skin. This can be anything from obvious cuts to tiny wounds at the roots of hair follicles that are not even visible to the eye.
Herpes, genital warts and other STDs have an increased risk of exposure through some skin trauma.
Infections
Waxing, especially when it is done with wax and the hair is completely removed from the buttocks area, increases the risk not only of STDs, but also of simpler infections. In other words, by pulling the hair in these areas you increase the risk of various bacteria entering the body. This can cause skin infections and even deep inflammation (cellulite) in some cases.
Ringworm and ringworm are the most likely infections after waxing in the bikini area.
Hair turning inward
When you pull a hair from its root, a new, thin and weak hair will start to grow in its place, which naturally has less strength and thickness at its tip until it manages to come to the surface of the skin. Often, these hairs become trapped, or "caught" under the skin, leading to skin irritations, which can become infected.
