Subscribe to Alpha M. on YouTubeNose Hair Waxing… FAIL!GorillaKilla ApeX TweezersAlpha debunks the myth that shaving causes the hair to grow back thicker, faster and more coarse. Hair may give the illusion that it is, but it’s not. Here’s why.When a hair has never been cut or trimmed, the point of the hair is fine. The hair appears thinner and softer. When shaved, the fine point is gone. Visually, you see a cross section of the hair – more surface area of that hair. Short hair is more coarse (aka stubbly). When you pluck or waxed, you are removing the hair from the follicle base (root). The point is what grows back. When men shave their eyebrows or between the eyes with a razor, black dots show all at once. Same happens with a cheap pair of tweezers as the hair snaps. High quality tweezers are important. GorillaKilla ApeX Tweezers are Alpha’s favorite. With nose hair, plucking or pulling them can cause ingrown hairs. Alpha has been cutting his nose hairs since the waxing fail (see video). Bottom-line, your hair follicles are not growing back thicker, stronger, or more abundant from shaving, pulling, or removing the hair. Alpha gives the example of a bald man or a man losing his hair. If he shaves his head, wouldn’t his hair grow back thicker if that myth were true? Alpha has now officially debunked this bitch! RELATED CONTENTFeatured videoNothing is worse than buying a new super-sexy signature scent and getting home where the fragrance doesn’t smell like you thought. To avoid this, check out my fragrance-buying tips. The first tip is to take your time because it’s all about the transition. The top note is what it smells like at first, which is not how the fragrance will end up. Give it time. The mid and the base follow. The base is what it settles into, so a great rule of thumb is to spray the fragrance on you and then eat lunch or go home. Evaluate after that. The scent will smell different on different people as well. The second tip is to go to the store without applying any fragrance and pick two areas of your body to test. I recommend using a different wrist for different fragrances. After applying, let the cologne chill and smell it about 60 minutes later.

July 06, 2022 Whether you shave your legs or facial hair or both, you may have heard the famous rumor that hair grows back thicker after shaving. This can strike fear in the hearts of those who shave regularly, because it would cause more of what you’re trying to get rid of. But before you put down your razor or trimmer, we’re here to tell you the truth about this common shaving debate — so you can put your worries to bed and move forward with your hair removal method of choice. Read on for the facts on the matter and other hair removal rumors. Let’s cut to the chase. The good news is, the rumor that hair grows back thicker after shaving is just that — a rumor. According to the Mayo Clinic, shaving facial or body hair doesn’t change its thickness, but it does leave it with a blunt tip. As the hair begins to grow back, it typically feels coarse and stubbly, which is why it can sometimes appear to be growing back thicker. This applies to the hair on your head, arms, and face (you can expect the same results even when removing peach fuzz). Once the hair grows out, it will look just the same as it did before shaving. Does Hair Grow Back Darker After Shaving?With color, it’s the same deal. The Mayo Clinic states that shaving hair won’t change its color. Again, the regrowth phase can often create the illusion of hair that is growing in thicker — and therefore darker — since it has a blunt tip once shaved. Does Hair Grow Back Hair Faster After Shaving?Another false alarm. While it may seem as though your hair growth speeds up post-shave, the Mayo Clinic says this is not the case. Rather, you’re likely more aware of regrowth that’s occurring since you’re committed to the routine of shaving (plus, you’re going from no hair there to hair growing in so it’s more noticeable). Does Hair Grow Back Thicker After Waxing?You may be curious about other types of hair removal and if they can cause your hair to grow back thicker. One that’s probably popped into mind is waxing. According to the Journal of the American Medical Association Dermatology, waxing is a form of epilation that removes hair from the root. The good news is that waxing and removing hair from the root actually causes the hair to grow back thinner and lighter over time, so it may be a better alternative for those who are looking for a longer-lasting result overall. Does Hair Grow Back Thicker After Laser Removal?We have one last hair removal method to cover — you may be curious about laser hair removal and if it can lead to thicker regrowth. Fortunately, laser hair removal does the exact opposite. The American Academy of Dermatology (AAD) states that laser hair removal can take six sessions or more to remove the hair but that the hair removal is permanent on most parts of the body. How to Hide Noticeable Hair GrowthIf you’re worried about your hair regrowth being noticeable post-shave, you’re not alone. Here are some top tips for hiding any noticeable strands. 1. Use Self-TannerSelf-tanner can be your saving grace when it comes to a lot of beauty concerns. Aside from giving you a beautiful glow sans dangerous UV rays, it’s also great for concealing blemishes and grown out hair. Use an airbrush self-tanner, like the L’Oréal Paris Sublime Bronze ProPerfect Salon Airbrush Self-Tanning Mist Medium Natural Tan, for an instant cover-up. 2. Try a Blurring Body LotionJust as there are blurring face moisturizers, a blurring body lotion can help smooth the appearance of your skin. With an application, it can help blur out stubble, uneven skin tone, and make your skin look more airbrushed. This, in turn, will help minimize the appearance of any noticeable regrowth. 3. Use Body MakeupWhen in doubt, turn to body makeup to conceal noticeable hair in a pinch. You don’t need a crazy amount of coverage to hide stubble — just a small amount of matte liquid foundation, like the L’Oréal Paris Infallible Pro-Matte Foundation can work wonders.
