Bleaching is a process that lightens
hair color, it's not really a hair removal technique but is a
common alternative - you do not use liquid bleach you wash clothes
with, there are over the coutner products specially designed for
the skin
test the area you plan to bleach before
going forward with a full application - an area about 1/4 inch
is enough to test - wait about 10 minutes, then rinse the area
with cool water - wait 24 hours to be sure no reaction occurs
make sure not to apply bleaching formulas
after a hot bath or in a steamy room - open pores are susceptible
to irritation
don't use bleaching products on skin
with cuts or abrasions, and don't use it on sensitive areas
start with clean skin - wash the area
with soap and cold water - pat dry
prepare the bleaching formula according
to the manufacturers instructions - some require different mixing
techniques
apply the mixture to your skin with
a flat utensil like a spatula - cover the hair completely
leave the bleach on for about 10 minutes,
then remove it with the spatula
you can always reapply if the hair is
not light enough for your preferences
