Lots of people have hair they wish wasn’t there. Getting rid of it becomes a priority. Let’s take a look at some of the methods that are used for hair removal.

This is a basic list of hair removal methods: shaving, waxing, plucking, creams, electrolysis, and laser. Some of these methods are old fashioned., others are cutting edge. Let’s see what these are all about.

Get out the razors. Shaving is the most basic hair removal method. The problem is that it never ends, hairs are back in a day, and you start all over.

Waxing involves spreading a thin wax over the hair to be removed. Paper or cloth is pressed onto the wax and then quickly ripped of, against the direction of the growing hair. This pulls out the hairs with the wax.

Taking out the tweezers and yanking hairs out by the roots is another option. This can hurt too. Pulling hairs out one at a time can take forever.

Lotions use substances that dissolve the hair all the way under the skin. These chemicals can be rough on your skin. You can develop skin rashes and cuts.

You can zing hair away with electrolysis. This tool destroys the whole follicle. It works on one hair at a time.

This is also a costly and time-consuming event, but does get results. This is the only technique can claim permanent hair removal.

Finally, the latest advancement is laser hair removal. Laser hair removal can claim permanent hair “reduction”. Although it isn’t as complete as electrolysis it has a few major advantages.

You can do a treatment in less than ten minutes, if working on a small area, like the upper lip. You can do large areas in under an hour, like your legs. Treatments lead to permanent hair reduction.

For those who can afford it, laser hair removal is the trend. It satisfies our need for fast, easy results. This seems to be the future of high end hair removal options.
