In athletic competition, even a fraction of a second can make a difference. A streamlined profile can cut down on wind or water friction, provide a comfortable “feel” during athletic activity and make hygiene easier. Experts also say that athletes who participate in a sport which produces chafing could find some relief through hair removal.
As a result, the increased popularity of “manscaping,” or the taming, shaping and removal of body hair, is going extreme for athletes in many sports. Many athletes choose permanent hair removal with electrolysis
The trend of widespread body hair removal, from back to arm and leg hair to the pubic region—even going totally bare—is most common among swimmers, cyclists and triathletes.

Athletes who turn to hair removal for improved athletic performance may choose to commit to weekly upkeep. But for those who would like the convenience of a permanent solution, electrolysis is the only effective option. Other methods may reduce the amount of hair or frequency of maintenance but only electrolysis is permanent.
Discuss your goals with your professional electrologist to develop a hair removal plan that meets your needs.
Athletes choose electrolysis for one reason: permanent results. Whether you want smoother skin for comfort, hygiene, or performance, electrolysis targets each follicle to permanently remove unwanted hair—without the constant shaving, stubble, or ingrowns.
Yes—electrolysis is a permanent hair removal method that can help athletes reduce irritation from shaving and stay consistently smooth.
Common areas include the back, chest, shoulders, arms, legs, underarms, and bikini/pubic region—depending on sport and preference.
Most clients return to normal activity quickly, but it’s best to schedule sessions around intense workouts and follow aftercare (avoid heavy sweat, heat, and friction right after treatment if you’re sensitive).
Hair grows in cycles, so multiple sessions are required. The exact number depends on the area, hair density, hormones, and consistency of appointments.
Before: avoid tweezing/waxing (shaving is okay), arrive with clean skin, and stay hydrated.
After: keep the area clean, avoid picking, and limit sun/heat/sweating for a short period—your electrologist will give specific aftercare.
