    The American Trend of Female Pubic Hair Removal: Exploring A

    THE AMERICAN TREND OF FEMALE PUBIC HAIR REMOVAL: EXPLORING A POPULAR CULTURE BODY MODIFICATION by BETH A. WEIGLE (Under the Direction of José Blanco F.) ABSTRACT Various cultures have used constructed knowledge, social standards, and aesthetic preferences to determine how to manipulate and treat each type of hair on a person‟s body, including pubic hair. Depilation and/or trimming of pubic hair, increasingly being used by contemporary western cultures, could be considered a highly normative practice (Toerien, Wilkinson & Choi, 2005). The purpose of this study was to explore factors that influence the recent development of American women‟s decision to depilate and/or trim the pubic region. Twenty American women between the ages of 18 and 57 participated in an online survey. Data was analyzed using a grounded theory approach, which consisted of a two-step process involving coding and memo- writing. The study determined that depilation of pubic hair is a growing practice amongst American women. This change in pubic hair grooming practices is related with an increased presence of pubic hair discussion among individuals as well as in popular culture.

    If the coronavirus pandemic has obliterated your grooming routine, you’re not alone. Among many other quandaries, you might be grappling with how to shave your pubic hair these days—particularly if your usual grooming technique isn’t really possible while social distancing. Now, obviously summer’s going to look a lot different this year than it normally does, but you might still find some safe opportunities to get into a swimsuit. If removing the hair around your vulva is usually part of that process for you, we get why you’re interested in figuring out how to shave down there. Of course, no one is obligated to remove their pubic hair (or any other body hair), but if it’s part of your normal routine that makes you feel great, we’re not going to tell you to stop. We are, however, going to help you handle this DIY hair care situation as safely as possible. So, in case you’re interested in how to shave your pubic hair, we asked a dermatologist to give us the low-down on how to do it safely. Why do you even have pubic hair? It’s not entirely clear why people have pubic hair. When it comes to people with vaginas, there is some thought that it might provide protection against dirt entering the vagina, as well as against friction from exercise or sex, SELF previously reported. There is also the (unproven) theory that pubic hair carries pheromones that signal when you have reached reproductive maturity (and, in turn, possibly help you attract a partner to reproduce with).

In this shiur we need to apply the principles that we learned in Part 1 to the electric shaver and understand the contemporary psak. A] THE HISTORY OF THE ELECTRIC SHAVER • 1879 - invention of the manual beard-clipping machine, mentioned by poskim at the end of the 19C. • 1898 - patents first filed for an electric razor. • 1903 - invention of the safety razor by Gillette in the US. This was marketed in Europe from 1905. • 1925 - invention of the electric safety razor and the vibro-shave. • 1931 - Jacob Schick created the first electric shaver. This was already referenced in the US poskim by 1932.1 • 1939 - Phillips began to produce the shaver with a round head. 2 • 1980s - Invention of the ‘Lift & Cut’ electric shaver.

    Hair Is Made of Strong Elastic Strands of Protein Called Keratin. the Sources of Hair Are Very Small Tiny Pockets in Our Skin and Scalp Known As Follicles

    Hair Hair is made of strong elastic strands of protein called keratin. The sources of hair are very small tiny pockets in our skin and scalp known as follicles. These follicles are found together in groups of two to five each. Every follicle follows a life cycle of its own producing about six inches of hair a year for as long as four years before it falls out and then starts all over again after a short period. The basal tip of the hair in the scalp is known as papilla which is a small out-growth of the skin shaped like a doorknob and lying at the tip of the follicle. The papilla contains the blood vessels to supply nourishment to the hair. During the active period the new cell growth pushes the older part of the hair away from the papilla until the hair falls out. It is the pattern of cell growth at the papilla which determines whether hair grow straight, wavy or curly. The growth pattern usually becomes uneven during the adolescence when the hair growth is at its peak. It declines as we grow older. Though hair strands look as singular fibres, each hair is constructed in three different layers: the cuticle, the cortex and the medulla. Cuticle The cuticle is the outermost layer of the hair which provides protection to the inner cortex layer. It is made up of flattened, hard, horny cells. Cortex The cortex is the second layer of hair. The qualitative properties of strength, elasticity, pliability, direction and growth pattern, width and the texture of hair depend on the composition of the cortex.

Hair cosmetics can be distinguished into two main categories: cosmetics with temporary effect on the hair, for example shampoos, conditioners, sprays, and temporary colors; and cosmetics with permanent effect on the hair, such as permanent waves, relaxers, bleaches and permanent colors. These cosmetic procedures may induce hair abnormalities. We provide an overview on the most important characteristics of these procedures, analyzing components and effects on the hair. Finally, we evaluated new camouflage techniques and tattoo scalp. Keywords: hair; hair care; hair care cosmetics; hair care products; cosmetic ingredient; healthy hair 1. Introduction Hair is a complex structure composed by many components that act as a unit, with the biological purpose of protecting the scalp, as well as physical attractiveness to the self-perception of beauty. Nowadays, hair care and style play a very important role in people’s lives, both for men and women, so knowledge of hair products, mode of action, efficacy, ingredients and hair procedures has become more relevant in dermatologists’ medical practice. The amount of money spent to enhance the hair beauty is an indication of how much attention is given today to the hair appearance.

    By Louis Silberman or many women and men, hair removal is more than a process, more than a routine and much more than simply a chore—it is Fa full-on battle. The current styles and trends for both sexes call for a smooth, virtually hair-free physique. However, obtaining a bare bod is not always easy. Depending on the method of hair removal used, the process can be time-consuming, stubble can reappear quickly, and ingrown hairs can become a painful, unsightly problem. Americans spend $10 billion on various products and services to remove unwanted fuzz. From razors to lasers, people are searching for the best solutions and experimenting with different ways to keep body hair at bay.

    WHO Surgical Site Infection Prevention Guidelines Web Appendix 7 Summary of a Systematic Review on the Effectiveness and Optimal Method of Hair Removal

    WHO Surgical Site infection Prevention Guidelines Web Appendix 7 Summary of a systematic review on the effectiveness and optimal method of hair removal 1. Introduction Removal of hair from the intended site of surgical incision has traditionally been part of the routine preoperative preparation of patients undergoing surgery. Hair removal may be necessary to facilitate adequate exposure to the site and preoperative skin marking. Furthermore, suturing and the application of wound dressings can be complicated by the presence of hair. Apart from these practical issues, hair has been associated with a lack of cleanliness and the potential to cause surgical site infection (SSI). However, there is also the belief that hair removal inversely increases the risk of SSI by causing microscopic trauma of the skin. To minimize the potential of skin trauma, the use of clippers instead of razors has been proposed for preoperative hair removal. Clippers cut the hair close to the skin without actually touching it, whereas razors involve a sharp blade drawn directly over the skin. A third method for hair removal is the application of depilatory creams containing chemicals. The drawbacks are the necessity to leave the cream in place for approximately 15-20 minutes for the hair to be dissolved and the potential for allergic reactions. A Cochrane review, published in 2009 and updated in 2011, concluded that there was no statistically significant effect on SSI rates of hair removal 1. However, a significant harm was seen when hair removal with razors was compared with clipping. 2. PICO questions 1. Does hair removal affect the incidence of SSI? 2.
