how to remove unwanted hair

Unwanted hair removal can be temporary or permanent

Temporary hair removal options include:

Shaving does not cause more hair to grow, but the hair may look thicker.

Plucking and waxing are fairly safe and are not expensive. However, they can be painful and there is a risk for scarring, swelling, and skin darkening.

Chemicals may be used, but most have a bad odor.


Permanent hair removal options include:

Electrolysis uses electrical current to permanently damage individual hair follicles so they do not grow back. This method is expensive, and multiple treatments are needed. Swelling, scarring, and redness of the skin may occur.

Laser hair removal uses laser aimed at the dark color (melanin) in the hairs. This method is best if a very large area needs to be treated and only if the hair is particularly dark (does not work on blond or red hair).
