Body Hair Removal Methods

Many women suffer from unwanted body hair. It could be due to hormonal imbalances, genetics, medications, puberty and so forth. Removing this unwanted body hair could be frustrating and a hastle to women.

There are several hair removal methods, which include waxing, shaving, hair lasor removal, plucking, threading, and depilatory creams. 

• shaving: it is the easiest method. Harmless, painless, and cheapest but the hair grows back immediately and can cause ingrown hairs( which form into a pimple and swell)

• waxing: either done professionally or not, waxing is painful, messy, and cause loose skin. Nonetheless, through this method hair usually comes back after at least a few weeks and removes dead skin as well.

• hair laser removal: it is the most expensive method but the most long lasting method of hair removal. It is done professionally in sessions depending on how much hair. The laser destroys the hair root and thus hair is permanently removed. 

• threading: it is most commonly used on the eyebrows and lips but some women thread unwanted hair from different body parts. It is painful and can cause redness but it removes the hair from the root.

• depilatory creams: nair, for example, is most commonly used. Those hair removal creams do not remove hair from the root. It can burn your skin and cause redness but it is quick and simple to use.

• plucking: usually used on facial hair and eyebrows. some women use this method to remove few hairs here and there but it can cause scarring and ingrown hairs. 

Thus, there's no best option of hair removal because each method has pros and cons. It depends on each woman to try out different methods and decide which works best for her and give her the optimal results and the least side effects.

Use cocunut oil or aloe Vera cream on your body after hair removal to smooth skin and prevent skin irritations( redness, bumps).
