A complete hair removal reference : The ideal way to remove hair

A Realistic View of Hair Removal and How To Prioritize

It is important to have a realistic view when considering the subject of hair removal. Numerous methods are available and a bewildering array of products claim to be THE answer. To avoid disappointment, it is important to realize that results from hair removal methods can vary considerably from person to person. Every individual is different when it comes to rate of hair growth, texture of hair, skin condition and pain toleration level. What works well on some does not work well on others. One visitor to a hair removal message board gave a summary of her efforts:-


"I have had electrolysis, laser (when it first came out), epil pro (another form of hair removal) . . . and have had problems with all. With electrolysis - I had it done for about 3 years from the age of 18 but was left with scars. Laser - when it first came out I was very eager so I had a patch test done on my arm which cost $600 and it left me with 2nd degree burns on my arm. I am scarred for life not being able to wear sleeveless T-shirts any more. I have had Epil-Pro done for over a year about 2 hours a month @ $2.5 per minute but my hair is growing much stronger than before. As a last resort I am now waxing and using a hair inhibitor."

This experience emphasizes the importance of going to professionals for electrolysis and laser treatment. While this will not be everyone's experience it does highlight that finding an acceptable hair removal method which works for you may involve: • Experimentation • Time • Discomfort • Expense
