An at-home hair elimination system is an extremely private present, but when you understand somebody that’s had their eye on one in every of these or struggles with undesirable bodily hair, it might be very well-received. I’ve nothing in opposition to physique hair, however from time to time I discover myself follicularly pissed off. Hair traps grime and odors and simply usually makes me really feel messy, and I’ve largely relied on tweezing to do away with undesirable strands. In comparison with alternate options like waxing or threading, Intense Pulsed Mild (IPL) remedy is a comparatively painless and considerably everlasting technique that I’ve undergone professionally up to now. Having the ability to take action at house is each cheaper and extra handy. There are numerous handheld IPL gadgets on the market, together with fashions from Braun, Ulike and Philips, however I selected Nood due to its comparatively low worth. And, frankly, its Instagram advertisements lastly received me.
It’s essential to notice that, as a result of manner it really works, IPL is finest for people who find themselves fair-skinned and have darkish hair, so in case your giftee has gentle hair or a darker complexion, it’s best to think about one thing else. I’ve been utilizing my Nood for about 10 weeks as of mid-October, and I can lastly say it does appear to work. A high-end machine for salon use is clearly going to be simpler than one which prices $200 that you just use at dwelling, so the one you love will must be affected person and per their Nood use to see outcomes. Like my expertise with IPL therapies a couple of dozen years in the past, regrowth tends to occur with out common contact ups, so even after the hair has largely gone, your giftee will nonetheless must flash their areas each now and again. In comparison with having to endure scorching wax, ingrown hairs or different pores and skin irritation, although, that could be a small tradeoff. — C.L.
