Step-by-Step Guide: How to Use Turmeric for Hair Removal

Turmeric for hair removal mask No.2

In the first mask, we used milk; this mask uses lemon extract. This mask will also make your face look brighter. Here is what you need:

  • ½ bowl of sugar
  • 1 cup of water
  • 2 tablespoons of turmeric
  • 2 tablespoons of lemon extract

How to make it

  • Boil the water. Add the sugar, and let it boil with the water until you get sticky, sugary syrup.
  • Let the sugar syrup cool down, and then add turmeric and lemon extract. Stir the ingredients to get a thick paste.
  • Apply the paste on the troubled area and allow it to dry. Scrub in a circular motion. After five minutes of scrubbing, rinse your face. You can also use a washcloth to remove the mask by rubbing in the opposite direction.
  • Repeat three times per week.

Turmeric for hair removal mask No.3

In addition to removing unwanted hair, this mask will provide you with a cleansing effect. You’ll need the following ingredients:

  • 1 teaspoon of turmeric
  • 1 tablespoon of flour
  • 2 tablespoons of milk

How to make it

  • You’ll notice that the ingredients are fairly similar to the first mask. The only difference is there is no salt this time. Add the ingredients to a bowl and mix until you get thick paste.
  • Apply the mask in the direction of the hair growth, and then scrub in the opposite direction.
  • Scrubbing will disturb the hair growth and make the hair fall out from the roots. If you want, you can replace flour with oats.

Turmeric for hair removal mask No.4

I want to give you mask that will not only help remove unwanted hair, but also nourish your face. The ingredients are the following:

  • 1 cup of chickpea flour
  • ½ tablespoon of turmeric
  • ½ cup of milk

How to make it

  • Add chickpea flour to a small mixing bowl. Add the turmeric and stir for a few seconds. Add the milk and stir until you get smooth paste.
  • Apply a thin layer of the mixture on the area where you want to remove hair. Apply in the direction of hair growth. Let the mixture dry on your face for 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Using a washcloth, rub the area in the opposite direction of hair growth. Remove any residue from the mask with warm water. Apply moisturizer to soothe the area.

Turmeric and milk for hair removal mask No.5

Sometimes, the best mask is the simplest one. Milk is part of many turmeric masks. Sometimes, there are other ingredients, but if you want to keep it simple, you need just turmeric and milk. You don’t have to worry too much about measurements here. To make the paste more effective, the ratio of turmeric to milk is 3:1.

How to make it

  • Spread the paste on your skin and apply in the same direction as the hair growth. Allow the mask to dry on your face for 20 minutes.
  • Using a dry washcloth, scrub your skin in a circular motion to remove the mask.
  • Repeat every 2 or 3 days to get best results. After using it for a few months, you’ll notice the hair will take longer to grow back.

Bonus tips & Video

I always want to share some tips with my readers. This time, I will try to answer some of your concerns.
Yes, your face might turn yellowish due to the turmeric. Use an apple cider vinegar toner or coconut oil to moisturize your skin after the hair removal. This will remove the turmeric stains.
Never repeat the treatment two days in a row. It is just too much for your skin.
You can also use baking soda and soap to remove the yellow turmeric stains from your skin.
Benefits of turmeric

As I said at the beginning, turmeric is a very effective home remedy. When you consume it on a daily basis, it reduces the risk of cancer, boosts brain function, reduces the risk of heart diseases, and prevents Alzheimer’s and bone diseases like arthritis.

But in terms of the skin, here are some of the benefits.
The main compound in turmeric, curcumin, is a natural anti-inflammatory compound that supports the health of your skin. Inflammation can lead to many skin problems like acne, for example.
Turmeric improves the antioxidant capacity of your body and skin, slowing the aging process and negating the harmful effect of free radicals.
Turmeric fights off age-related problems like wrinkles.
Turmeric has antibacterial and antiseptic properties, which keep your skin clean, clear, and healthy.
