Hair Removal….how to get rid of unwanted hair
forever!
What do you need to know about permanent hair
removal?
Is this your problem….unsightly and unwanted body hair?
or…..
are you at your wits end trying to find the perfect
hair removal system?
Whatever it is by doing some research here to find the never
ending list of products and services available is a great way
to start. Understanding your own body and lifestyle is also a
huge help – what suits one person may not necessarily suit
another. But the good thing is – there is something suitable
for everyone.
There are several popular as well as not-so-common methods
of hair removal.
- Shaving – obviously only a temporary method but it is
cheap! Come the next day and it is nearly time for another
one.
- Plucking – cheap again as you only need a pair of
tweezers but it is very time consuming because you have to
pull each hair out one by one – ouch! Probably ok for that
odd random hair around the eyebrows but can cause an
irritation – many women won’t use this method because of
that “old wives tale” – two will grow back for the one you
plucked. It is just a myth.
- Waxing – used over larger areas like the legs
especially by women. It is a pretty fast way to get the job
done but it may bring a tear to your eye first time round.
Men – beware – it works well, lasts for four to six weeks
but is not for the feint hearted. Wax also removes the top
layer of skin so you may see some redness or even a rash
occur. But again it is another very affordable method of
hair removal.
- Hair removal cream – also known as depilatories. These
creams are nice and easy to use and work by basically
dissolving the hairs which you then just wipe off – so it
is easy to do at home. Some people have better results than
others so you will just have to do a little testing – a lot
less painless than waxing and good for home hair
removal.
- Electrolysis hair removal – works really well for small
localized areas of hair and is pretty much a permanent job.
It is done by placing a needle in the hair follicle through
which an electric current is delivered. Since each hair has
to be treated individually it takes a considerable amount
of time and can be costly for large areas. It is
recommended you seek the services of a professional here
and don’t try doing this at home as it is a difficult
procedure.
Laser hair removal – if you are sick and
tired of the daily or weekly ritual of creaming, shaving or
waxing and want a more permanent solution then this is for you.
Thanks to modern science laser hair removal is the most recent
technique that appears to provide good and permanent results.
Basically, the larger the area of unwanted hair, for example
back or legs, the greater the number of treatments required.
This could be a key factor in your decision to use this
procedure as treatments can be rather expensive for large
areas.
So what’s the best method of hair removal
for you?
Trial and error and the depth of your pockets will be your
guide…the main thing is do what you are comfortable with and do
plenty of research.
Depending on your lifestyle and budget it would appear that
the one providing some of the best outcomes is laser
hair removal.
