Women are fully epilated more and more young: TRUE
According to an Ifop survey published in April 2014 *, almost one in two women under 25 years of age (45%) uses the complete depilation of the jersey. And if, technically, it is possible to epilate the shirt integrally from the first hair removal, many beauticians admit to be reluctant when teenage girls ask them to complete hair removal.
Complete Hair Removal owes its Success to the Pornography Industry: TRUE
In any case, this is what the Ifop survey claims, which states that full-body hair removal became the norm in X-movies as early as the 1990s. This also explains the young age of the majority of women whose sex is entirely depilated. Under-25s are the biggest consumers of pornographic movies . If 14% of French women epilate completely, this figure rises to 45% among the youngest.
Men prefer the complete depilation of the shirt: FALSE
Contrary to what one might think, men are only 12% to prefer sex without any hair . According to a survey conducted in April 2013 by the depilatory wax brand Nads, 43% of men prefer the Brazilian jersey and 17% the metro ticket. However, preference for full-body hair removal is more prevalent among young men under 25 than for the entire male population.
With the complete depilation, our pubis is no longer protected: FALSE but ...
For many, pubic hair is used to protect sex , but nothing proves it. Their presence is explained by a hormonal hypersensitivity at this level of the human body. There is no indication, therefore, that full-body hair removal can jeopardize the safety of our intimacy. Nevertheless, some institutes now practice lip hair removal in pregnant women only after signing a discharge. The reason ? No doubt the possibility of micro-cuts due to this type of hair removal, which can lead to infection or even transmit STIs such as chlamydia, gonorrhea and papillomavirus infections.
The complete depilation allows a better hygiene: FALSE but ...
Our intimate hygiene has nothing to do with the amount of hair our pubis has. An unshaved sex subject to rigorous hygiene is just as hygienic sex fully shaved. However, in the spring of 2013, a dermatologist from Nice published a study warning against all forms of hair removal denuding the lips. He had identified nearly 30 cases of a particularly contagious virus, molluscum contagiosum, between 2011 and 2012 on 93% of his depilated patients.
Complete hair removal leads to more sexual pleasure: TRUE ...
... but not for the reasons we can think of. If, indeed, the fact of removing the hair allows a greater sensitivity of the erogenous zones , the stronger sensations are also due to a psychic phenomenon. The use of full hair removal is a way for the woman to get even more naked. Every woman will feel this differently, but it plays on sexual pleasure .
The jersey is recommended before delivery: TRUE
It is recommended for pregnant women only to avoid the inconvenience of a forced shave. Indeed, the complete depilation is not obligatory before the delivery. However, when a caesarean section or an episiotomy is required in the delivery room, the midwife shaves the pubis , especially to be able to sew better after the procedure. To avoid unsightly regrowth and unpleasant surprises, we advise pregnant women to have a complete hair removal a few days before birth to be quiet.
The complete removal of the pubis damages the skin: TRUE and FALSE
When one epilates, one removes the hairy barrier which serves as partial protection to the lips. When the skin is bare, we can promote the development of a bacterium. However, it is not the act of dehairing that is dangerous, but rather the fact that the skin is damaged and possibly altered by the razor or wax, which can leave micro cuts. However, do not worry, if the rules of hygiene are respected, there is no risk to practice the complete depilation of the jersey.
