What To Look For When Searching For The Best Hair Removal Cream For Men

You know all about the best fur-busting men’s hair removal creams money can buy. Now, here are a few top tips to help you pick the perfect products for your personal manscaping needs.

Ingredients

Every men’s hair removal cream contains an active ingredient to get the job done. Some creams are more organic than others, which means you should choose your product wisely.

If you’re a really hairy fella, creams containing barium sulfide and strontium sulfide are a little more heavy-duty. But if you have sensitive skin, these ingredients can cause burning and irritation.

Potassium Thioglycolate is another active ingredient found in many hair removal creams that’s effective yet kinder to the skin. Always check the ingredients before choosing a men’s hair removal cream to ensure it suits your needs, and you can’t go wrong. A burning sensation down below is the last thing you need.

Ease of application

Another thing to consider when choosing a hair removal cream for men is how easy it is to use. Most creams are easy to apply: you rub them into the skin, wait a while, and the hair drops off. But some creams are thicker than others, which means a little more elbow grease is required.

Some men’s hair removal creams are also more instant than others, making them more convenient for busy manscapers. Before making your final choice, think about how often you might need to use your hair removal cream and how convenient it is to apply.

If you’re a busy bloke and you only need to remove a patch here or there, a lighter, more instant hair removal cream is probably best.

Results 

Naturally, the result you want is becoming as smooth as a peach. Any good men’s hair removal cream should help you get rid of unwanted man fluff, so when we say ‘results,’ we mean ‘how long it lasts.’

Some creams prevent hair regrowth for longer than others, so if you’re one heck of a hair human, going for something that lasts for weeks is advisable. On the other hand, if you’re focusing on one small spot of hair, buying a cream that stunts regrowth for a few days will do the trick.

Size

While most hair removal creams for men have an almost indefinite shelf life, they become less effective after 12 months.

That said, when you’re choosing your perfect manscaping cream, size does matter. Think about your hair removal needs and how often you’re likely to use your new product to choose a size that’s just right.

FAQ

      1. Make sure you choose a cream that’s suitable for your skin as well as the application area.
      2. Test your cream on a small area of your skin 24 hours before application to check for any allergies.
      3. Take a shower or bath before using your cream and check for any cuts or patches of dry skin (avoid these areas).
      4. Apply your hair removal cream exactly as advised on the packing, ensuring an even spread over the desired areas.
      5. Wash the cream away with a damp cloth or sponge after waiting for the appropriate amount of time.
      • Absolutely, men’s hair removal cream is very popular as it can remove man fur from the legs, arms, neck, back, chest or groin in a matter of minutes.

        One of the reasons so many guys use hair removal cream is that it’s easy to use at home and doesn’t require painful waxing strips or menacing trimming blades.

        • Yes, as long as you choose the right cream for your skin type and hair removal needs (don’t get a chest hair remover for your balls, for instance), hair removal cream is totally safe.

          For complete safety, always follow the directions on the product packaging and test your cream on a small area of skin before using it properly.

          • There are hair removal creams out there that market themselves as permanent. But it’s worth noting that although ‘permanent’ creams can get rid of unwanted patches of hair for good, some strands will always grow back here and there.

            Regular hair removal creams are effective and typically stunt regrowth for between three days and three weeks.
