Does waxing make your hair grow back thicker?

I am having a debate with my wife... she says it does, I say it doesn't. Can anyone help restore marital bliss?

This is not true, it may APPEAR thicker but this is because all hairs have been pulled out by the root, and after several regular waxing treatments, all hairs wil have grown back at the same time therefore making it look thicker. Where as before it hd been waxed and was growing naturally, the hairs will have all been growing at different growth rates, hence why there doesn't appear to be so many to begin with. So basically- hair removal such as waxing, and tweezing simply alters the growth cycle of your hair so that they all grow back at once rather than randomly!

Hi,
Waxing is a time-consuming process and requires some planning. you can buy home waxing kits at drug or grocery store.

Sugaring has the exact same results as the new craze Brazilian honey waxing. But sugaring originates in Egypt, this is where I trained.
Now you can remove all body & facial hair effectively & with minimal discomfort. Its 100% natural (its edible), gentle & lasts twice as long as waxing!! 
Sugaring is a pure all-natural hair removal method. Its considered the oldest & still the best method for hair removal & effective for all hair textures. It is often compared to waxing because both are sticky but that’s where the comparison ends. 
If you have sensitive skin then sugaring is the best choice. The sugar paste only adheres to your hair & pulls them out by the root without sticking to the skin causing no irritation .
It is a less painful, hypo-allergenic method of hair removal. Re-growth is slow so this method of hair removal can last up to 6 weeks, which is comparable to how long laser treatment lasts & so makes it a good hair removal alternative. It is safe for the entire body & face. 
With regular treatments the hairs become sparse, softer & lighter in colour, therefore less noticeable between treatments. Frequent sugaring can also cause the hair follicle to shrink which permanently stops the growing hair. 
Sugaring also works as a body exfoliant which greatly adds to the smooth, soft after affect clearly enjoyed by clients. 
Experience has shown that the anticipation is often worse than the process itself. 
Now you can remove all body & facial hair effectively & with minimal discomfort. 100% natural, gentle & lasts for weeks. 
You have no excuse from here on out . . . 
So . . . . 
When will you discover body sugaring? 
Please contact me for more information or for a booking.

Waxing will make hair appear finer and more sparse the longer you do it. However if you wax an area that is fine you may make the hair come back thicker as waxing fine hair can stimulate the follicle and incourage more growth that is stronger and more coarse.

Your hair does not grow back thicker when you get waxing done. It's the complete opposite, if you continue to get waxing done on an area and do nothing else you will actually find that it grows back finer, lighter and in some cases patchy.
Hope this helps you both out.
