Why Are Singaporean Men Choosing Hair Removal in 2025?
Singaporean men are choosing hair removal for practical reasons. These include better hygiene, more confidence, and improved sports performance. Wellaholic’s data shows a 30% increase in male hair removal treatments over the past year 📈. The global market grows 8.2% annually. Many men want smoother skin to boost self-esteem (40% 🧑🤝🧑). Others seek better sports performance (30% 🏃♂️) or cleaner skin (20% ✨). Modern SHR (Super Hair Removal) technology makes the process comfortable. It gently heats hair follicles without intense heat, causing only a mild pinch sensation that 85% of customers find tolerable 🤏. This shift breaks stereotypes and offers men real benefits in Singapore’s humid climate.

Introduction
Have you noticed more Singaporean men embracing hair removal lately?
We’ve seen major shifts at Wellaholic. As founders of an aesthetic chain, we track male grooming trends closely. The old stereotype is gone. Hair removal isn’t just for women anymore. More men ask us about laser hair removal, waxing, and SHR technology. They want smooth skin for many reasons. Some play sports. Others want better hygiene. Many simply prefer the look and feel.
We’ll share 10 key facts about male hair removal in Singapore. Our data comes from thousands of customers. We want to clear up common myths. We hope Singaporean men feel comfortable exploring their grooming options.

Fact 1: Male Hair Removal is Growing Fast in Singapore
Male grooming habits are changing fast at Wellaholic Singapore. More men opt for hair removal every month. Our data shows a 30% increase in male hair removal treatments over the past year. This isn’t a fad—it’s a lasting shift.
The trend is global too. Industry reports show the men’s hair removal market grows 8.2% annually. Why the surge? Changing attitudes and a desire for smooth, defined body contours drive demand. At Wellaholic, we meet this demand with tailored SHR (Super Hair Removal) and IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) treatments for men. Our island-wide outlets in Orchard, Novena, and other convenient locations serve Singaporean men seeking professional results.

Fact 2: Men’s Hair Needs Different Treatment Approaches
Men’s hair is different from women’s. It tends to be thicker and coarser. This is due to higher testosterone levels. Hair removal techniques must match these differences. Men often want treatment for the back, chest, shoulders, and private areas.
Wellaholic’s Expertise in Male Hair Removal
Wellaholic specializes in male hair removal. We understand men’s unique needs. Our MOH-certified therapists use advanced SHR technology. They customize each session for your hair type, skin tone, and target area.
We provide safe, effective treatments. Our trained professionals use state-of-the-art SHR and IPL technology. They consider your hair thickness, skin sensitivity, and treatment goals. Over 50,000 treatments performed mean proven results for Singaporean men.

Fact 3: Is Male Hair Removal Painful? (Myth Busted)
Many Singaporean men worry about pain. We hear this concern daily at Wellaholic. Let’s be clear: modern SHR hair removal is far less painful than you think. Some discomfort is possible. But it’s minimal.
About 85% of our customers describe SHR as a mild pinch. It’s much less painful than waxing. Pain tolerance varies person to person. Some body areas are more sensitive. The upper lip is more sensitive than legs, for example. We use advanced cooling systems during treatment. Numbing creams are available if needed. The brief sensation is worth the long-lasting smooth skin.

Fact 4: Why Singaporean Men Choose Hair Removal
More Singaporean men come to Wellaholic for hair removal. It’s not just a trend. They have practical reasons.
Reasons Singaporean Men Choose Hair Removal:
- Better confidence – 40% say it boosts self-esteem in social and professional situations
- Improved sports performance – 30% are athletes who find less hair improves comfort during training and NS activities
- Better hygiene – 20% choose it for cleanliness, especially in Singapore’s humid climate, reducing sweat and odor
- Personal preference – 10% cite aesthetic choice or partner’s wishes
For Singaporean men, especially those active in sports or serving NS, hair removal prevents chafing and improves hygiene in our warm climate. These motivations show hair removal is practical, not just cosmetic.

Fact 5: What Hair Removal Options Exist for Singaporean Men?
Singaporean men have multiple hair removal methods to choose from. Each has benefits and drawbacks.
Hair Removal Methods for Men in Singapore:
- Shaving – Quick and easy, but lasts only 1-2 days; risk of cuts and razor burn
- Waxing – Removes hair from the root, lasts longer; can be painful and cause ingrown hairs
- SHR (Super Hair Removal) – Uses gentle, gradual heat on hair follicles; 85% report only mild pinch sensation
- IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) – Targets follicles with light energy; reduces hair growth over time
- Laser Hair Removal – Most permanent results; needs 6-8 sessions spaced 4-6 weeks apart
For Singapore’s humid climate and active lifestyles (including NS), permanent methods like SHR and IPL offer better long-term value.

Fact 7: What Aftercare Do Men Need Post-Treatment?
Post-treatment care is equally important to ensure optimal results. Wellaholic provides comprehensive aftercare guidance to help you maintain your newly smooth skin and avoid any potential issues. Here are some key post-treatment care tips from Wellaholic:
- Protect your skin from the sun. Sun exposure can worsen hyperpigmentation and other side effects, so it’s important to wear sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher every day, even on cloudy days.
- Moisturize regularly. Dry skin can be more prone to irritation and flaking, so it’s important to keep your skin hydrated with a gentle, fragrance-free moisturizer.
- Avoid harsh products. For the first few weeks after treatment, it’s best to avoid using harsh skincare products, such as exfoliators, scrubs, and retinoids. These products can irritate your skin and delay the healing process.
- Be gentle with your skin. Avoid rubbing, scrubbing, or scratching your skin, as this can also irritate it.

SHR hair removal may seem costly at first. But it’s a smart long-term investment. It saves time and money over the years. Wellaholic offers affordable packages for Singaporean men. We make professional treatment accessible. Our prices are listed clearly on our website.

Personal hygiene and comfort drive this shift. Excessive body hair can be itchy and uncomfortable. It’s hard to manage in our humid climate. Hair removal offers a practical solution.
