Whether dark or light or dense, depending on the individual, the hair on the feet and hands can sometimes be a source of insecurity, although its presence is not uncommon. While some people are luckier and have none at all, wait until you discover the purpose of this hair! Drumroll, please: hair on toes and fingers\u2026 \u201cserves no purpose,\u201d explains dermatologist Dr. Nina Roos. Indeed, \u201cthey are probably small remnants of our animal nature,\u201d adds the expert. But why do some people have more than others? \u201cIt\u2019s really familial and genetic,\u201d the dermatologist tells us. While there\u2019s no obligation to remove it, it is possible to get rid of it, but be careful, not just any old way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Electric razor:
How to remove hair on the feet and hands safely?
Unlike hair on the stomach, for example, hair on the feet and hands is \u201cnot pathological,\u201d explains Nina Roos. \u201cIt\u2019s truly genetic, and there\u2019s nothing we can do about it; we\u2019re born with it,\u201d she says. So, it\u2019s perfectly normal not to pay attention to it. However, if it bothers you and you can\u2019t stop noticing it, don\u2019t panic; there are very simple solutions. Be careful, though, not to give in to the temptation to shave it all off! The expert explains that \u201cthis will only make it grow back stronger.\u201d Her advice? Opt for techniques that remove or dye the hair. An electric epilator, cold or hot wax, depilatory cream, or even tweezers, for the more adventurous\u2026 All these methods can work; it\u2019s up to you to choose the one that suits you best.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
