Shaving Your Face

Dermaplaning.

Have you heard of it? This procedure is the new hottest trend in the skin care industry. Why? Because it’s AMAZING! Let me guess.. you’re afraid of your hair growing back thicker and darker, just like your husband’s facial hair. Luckily, this is a MYTH! It’s a common misconception, because store bought razor blades create blunt edges on the hair follicle, which makes the hair appear thicker.

According to the Mayo Clinic,

“Shaving facial or body hair gives the hair a blunt tip. The tip might feel coarse or “stubbly” for a time as it grows out. During this phase, the hair might be more noticeable and perhaps appear darker or thicker — but it’s not.”

The razor used for dermaplaning is actually very similar to a surgical scalpel! Don’t worry, the dermaplaning technique is gentle and harmless.
