Nufree® finipil® Professional Hair Removal

The Benefits of Nufree® for Facial Hair Removal

          Facial hair, for women, can be a very sensitive topic for a number of reasons. Many of us deal with facial hair removal in some form or another; whether it be eyebrows, upper lip, or chin, it’s a pain to deal with. Nufree® offers a method of hair removal that is different from traditional waxing methods, more sanitary than shaving or tweezing, and produces results at a significantly lower cost than laser hair removal.

          Nufree® was developed by Equibal Labs, in conjunction with plastic surgeons, to create a product that is gentle enough to use on an area before a surgical incision. Nufree® is a non-wax botanical product that doesn’t rip the skin or break the hairs like traditional waxes do. Nufree® is not a wax, and doesn’t harden when it hits the skin. It actually adheres to sebaceous oils, making it a perfect product to use on the face. Its gentle hair removal process offers a more comfortable process for the user and leaves the hair follicles intact without ripping the skin. Waxing can tear the particularly delicate skin of the face and damage the hair follicles, which can lead to ingrown hairs and infections. Tweezing often has the same effects, tearing and breaking the hairs, leading to the same issues.           Laser hair removal, though effective for permanent hair removal, is only recommended for dark hair. While some women do have dark hair on the face, not all do. This option would be unavailable to those with lighter facial hair. Additionally, laser hair removal must be done in multiple sessions. Over time, the hair growth is slowed, but it does require maintenance treatments. For some, this can take a long time to achieve the desired results. Though it is permanent, it is costly and takes time. Nufree® can be used in conjunction with laser treatments, because it is so gentle to the skin, to reduce the hair growth while waiting for the effects of the laser to take place.           Another option that some use is shaving. This seems like a simple enough method, men do it. Right? Well, no. Shaving requires frequent maintenance (think of how often a man shaves). While it does not actually thicken the hair upon regrowth (that’s a myth), it can appear to grow back coarser because of how it is cut at the base of the follicle. With shaving, you also must be careful not to get razor burn or clog the hair follicles, which can lead to a breakout.           Epilades and chemical hair removers are also an option, though not as popular. Epilades pull the hair out of the skin, which can be both painful and can damage the hair follicle. Chemical hair removers often have an unpleasant odor and shouldn’t be used on sensitive skin.           Although there are many options available to women looking to remove facial hair, Nufree® is, by far, one of the most easy and effective methods. Its gentle removal of the hair, along with its antimicrobial properties, lend itself to an ideal method of hair removal for the delicate skin of the face. Nufree® is simply the way to go for safe, effective, affordable hair removal.

Wax vs. Non-Wax Hair Removal with Nufree®

           Hair removal comes in many forms. Aestheticians know what to recommend for their clients with varying needs. However, when trying to choose between traditional wax and a non-wax hair removal treatment for your salon, the answer is simple: Nufree® is the best choice for your clients’ needs. Nufree® stainless steel kit is the most sanitary and gentle form of hair removal available for your salon. When paired with finipil®, its comfort and antibacterial benefits can’t be beat.

         Traditional wax-based hair removal products evaporate when heated. This can result in a dramatic loss in product as the wax sits in a warmer. Nufree® won’t evaporate when heated because it is a botanical triglyceride that is totally hydro-phobic. This is important because it cannot harbor bacteria of any kind. Using Nufree® saves money in the long run, because you won’t experience the amount of loss that comes from the wax-based removers. It is self-preserving as well and can be reheated, while retaining its antimicrobial properties for years.

          Additionally, waxes harden or evaporate on the skin and can tear the skin and break the hairs upon removal. Nufree® is a proven epilade that is all botanical and contains no wax! Nufree® remains a liquid when applied to the skin; it never hardens, meaning it can be erased should your application need correction. Its temperature is regulated by the time it touches your skin, creating maximum comfort for clients. Nufree® doesn’t tear the skin or break hairs because it adheres to the oils of the hair and doesn’t stick on the skin’s surface. There is no need to pre-dry the skin with preparation products, such as is the case with a waxing, because Nufree® will not stick to normal skin. This decreases the risk for irritation and infection of the pores or hair follicles. Nufree® is a self- preserving antimicrobial/antibacterial so it is safe and germ-free! Using finipil® after Nufree® hair removal will further reduce irritation, cool and soothe the skin, and provide antibacterial protection to the empty follicles, further reducing the chances for bumps and ingrown hairs. Nufree® was designed over 40 years ago for plastic surgeons who needed to have a gentle method of hair removal at incision sites. With this in mind, Nufree® was designed to keep skin healthy, yet effectively remove hair.

         A stainless-steel kit is preferred for use with Nufree® because it is the most sanitary way to use the product and is impervious to all bacteria. When applied using the stainless steel applicator, that is kept heated, you can ensure that do not pick up any bacteria from the client’s skin through drag on application versus porous applicators. You will successfully use a very thin amount of Nufree® product which is the proper way to remove hair. The stainless steel is fully sanitized using an EPA approved cleaner and heat. Available through Equibal Labs, this stainless is of the same quality used by medical professionals and uses a hospital recommended sanitizer.  By using the Nufree® line of hair removal products, including stainless steel applicators, warmers, and sanitizers, you are providing your clients with the highest quality, most gentle, non-wax hair removal product that is available on the market today.
