Waxing is a form of semi-permanent hair removal service which removes the hair from the root. New hair will not grow back in the previously waxed area for four to six weeks. Although, some people will start to see regrowth in only a week due to some of their hair being on a different human hair growth cycle.
Waxing is considered to be a semi-permanent hair removal method because it removes the hair from the root. Which allows you to be hair free for longer than shaving, but it can again vary with how quickly your hair grows.
