So, it appears that SHR can be used successfully to remove hair, but it must be applied correctly, with sufficient cooling.
By ‘correctly’ I mean that the ‘in motion’ (or sliding/sweeping) technique must be tied to the repetition rate (Hz). This will minimise overlapping or “under-lapping”, where areas are missed, or not sufficiently heated.
I think of these techniques as follows:
The ‘SHR’ technique is a bit like when a steam press is used to iron hotel sheets – one, quick blast of steam is usually enough;
Whereas the ‘stamping’ technique is more like a standard ironing of a sheet or clothes – repeated passes of an iron over the same area.
They both achieve the same goal, but in slightly different ways.
Ciao for now, Mike.
