Which method is better for hair removal( semi-permanent) Elecrolysis or Laser???Thanks.
Which method is best?
Electrolysis is supposed to be better, although laser therapy is a very close second, if not equivalent nowadays.

Whenever I shave my legs I use a sharp razor, and shave gel. No matter what I always get razor burn, and never get a close shave. I can't use hair removal creams because I'm allergic to all the ones I've tried, and it took my legs two weeks to recover from them. No matter what product I've tried, the results are the same: a poor shave, red dots and a burning sensation. The creams caused the worse pain I've ever been in, and had to avoid getting my legs wet for days. I can't afford permanent removal, so what's left. Any products that will save me some pain?
Maybe your legs need a good lickin'..mmmmm....
OUCH. well. i've got nothing for that. but plucking them?
veet hair removing foam
shave with mens shaving cream
Have you tryed wax? There are some home remedies for wax that are made of things you find in your kitchen, so it might be a bit easier on you're legs :]
Of course, it stings a bit, bit only for a few seconds. And it wont cause you're legs to get red and burn
I suggest you try Shick Intuition.
My legs are sensitive too. I use the Intuition razor for sensitive skin.
i have the same problem. The first thing is NEVER USE VEET HAIR REMOVAL CREAM!!! It's the worst because of all the chemicals.
What I use is the Schick razor called "Intuition" it has really nice soap built onto the razor. It's the only thing that gives me a really close shave and no red bumps/itching/burning or anything. It really works!
instead of using a shaving soap use hair conditioner. you can also add the conditioner into the shaving cream if you would rather. its glides the razor and moisterizes at the same time. if a rash occures (but i dont think will) use a baby rash cream.
eww..
I'm in the same boat! I'm so fed up with everything out there that I have just stopped shaving..I know sounds pretty gross but its not worth the pain anymore. I use a beard trimmer to "shave" and I probably only put an actual razor to my legs 3-4 times a year max. It sucks royally..but at least my boyfriend understands:]
you could get a wax kit, make sure you get hot wax though because the cold ones are horrible, the wax can clump on the strip and on your leg and it hurts like hell when you try to pull it off. My legs even ended up bleeding at one point.
I have that same problem, and I don't know what to do about it either!!!
my parents dont have hairy legs,my sisters dont have one either..i got hairy legs because i shaved it when i was really young..how do i get rid of it once and for all??? i already tried shaving,using depilatories,waxing,threading,etc..i dont like laser hair removal because there might be complications. is there a product in the market that sells PERMANENT hair remover?as in permanent?
laser hair removal is as permanent as they get. They're really not bad. I've had a girl friend have it done and it worked like a charm. Yes it's expensive but it's worth it. I'm actually planning on having it done. You just have to make sure the the place you go to is a good one...meaning ask family and friend for referals.
wear jeans and not short pants
No permanent solution. You just drew the short end of the genetic stick... Make peace with the hair removal products and continue doing it...
just wax it
I have the same problem but doesnt matter to me much as I am a guy. Try laser. I dont think these days with the latest technology available laser should cause any complications.
um no suks 4 ya
have your hormones and ovaries checked then try laser
I would suggest Intense Pulsed Light which has taken over from Laser (even though a lot of people refer to it as Laser). The light only penetrates 4mm down to the hair root. You need to go to a qualified practitioner so you don't have "complications". Possible side effects are change in pigment, burns. You will need on average 6 - 8 treatments and then you will be hair free. It's wonderful, yes - a little expensive in the short term but great results and no more expense or problems later. There are no products or other treatments on the market that I am aware of that will given you as good a result. Just be really careful where you go and you'll be fine !! Good Luck

I am starting to see hairs grow on my lower back and i want a permanent removal, any suggestions.
Laser hair removal is probably the most permanent but it can get kind of expensive. In fact, any kind of permanent hair removal is going to be costly in the long run. Waxing costs a lot less but has to be done every 4 to 6 weeks. Good luck.
laser hair removal is permanent. if you go for waxing it will be cheap but not permanent but slowly you will get less hair growth.
I'm looking for something like laser hair removal? something uncostly please. i have hair on my stomach and chest i'm thinking about removing so i have smooth skin, but i HATE shaving it all the time. it's kinda thick and corse and whenever i shave it leaves stubbles so i want something a little more permanent?
wax.
Wax it!!!! Yes a little painful but cheap and effective!
You can try waxing, will hurt and stay gone longer though. Laser is the only way to get rid of permanently, but you are right in that it is going to cost you.
i hate it too and i'm only 13... it's because my mom's white.
I agree, waxing or some permanent stuff like the laser treatment or electrolysis or something...investigate such things in your area or do a google...but I find hair there on guys to be really sexy, and quite a few other girls do to, so only do it if you yourself really hate it.
Hair removing lotion, painless than waxing.
Mr. B, try Nair for Men. It works. Sports people use it all of the time. It's relatively cheap and it is safe. Besides all of that, there's probably going to be a time in your life when you want that hair back and with Nair, it will grow back eventually.
It's sold at most drugstores and even in most large grocery stores now.
DO NOT SHAVE because the hair gets so black and thick.Wax your body.It lasts for 3-4 weeks.
Do yourself a favor and leave the hair alone. It's much healthier and even more hygienic to have hair, because it helps air circulate, and that evaporates sweat so fungus doesn't grow.
Think about it -- do you want to put a chemical on your most sensitive skin that actually DISSOLVES hair? That's Nair. Do you want to take a chance on cutting yourself there?
There is absolutely nothing wrong with having pubic hair. All adults have it. the sooner you accept your adulthood, the happier you will be, as fighting puberty is a losing battle.
Laser is very expensive, and later you will almost certainly want to look like a man, so permanent removal is a terrible idea anyway.
So, I've decided to make grooming more simple by getting laser hair removal (no more shaving or waxing!). I normally do the bald thing, but when it's going to be permanent, do I want to leave a strip? Once I go bald, I can never go back. What to do...
i mean if you're used to the bald thing, then go for it! in the end it's all about you, so you do what feels best for you.
my opinion is irrelevant, but i personally don't like getting little hairs in my mouth :P
leave a landing strip, it wont be hard to shave anyways.. I prefer bald
Well if you go with the strip you could always shave if you fancy a change, so its win win.
bald, definitely.
Shaven havens rock!
Leave a strip....
YOur a girl and you want to go bald??
Well look at Brittany Spears. She went bonkers and shaved her head.
Now she has done everything in her means, which is a lot, to get hair back.
She had weaves put in, colored it, covered it up and is just hoping for her hair to grow out faster as she KNOWS she made a big mistake.
Keep the hair, talk to councilor or parents about your mood and whats really going on..good luck
landing strip, otherwise how would you know where to land? I'm lost without them, i would end up crashing into the watchtower, then that would cause all the other planes to crash due to the loss of communication.
bald is the best for me, i don't like it hairy or even shaved. you will never regret it
I am want to botox my Balls more less my ball sac, you know to get all those wrinkles out of them. I put this under womens health because I figured they have more experience with BOTOX, and also since they will be the ones using my balls the most, If the BOTOX works out I will probably get a permanent laser hair removal, If that works maybe a tatoo or two. It is a lot of pain for my nugget pouch. but what do you think about BOTOXed BALLS?
i say (from experience) there is nothing like a plucked pouch, but the wrinkles keeps my balls from falling into the toilet water so i would have to say no keep the elasticity.

Um..Dude Botox is a nerve poison, the single most poisnous naturally occuring substance on the planet, one drop is capable of killing 50,000 people - So even though theraputic diluted doses are used in cosmetic surgery I Wouldn't let that stuff get near my balls! - I am considering using it soon, but its to treat the constant muscle spasms in my face (yes, it is used for that too) which keep me from concentrating and living a life of peace - Keep it away from your balls, it removes wrinkles by destroying the muscles ability to contract - but you need to have it done every 5 months because it wears off - I sugges not using it on your balls...leave the wrinkles man they're natural, no one is going to look that close! - People use it for wrinkles and age lines on their face - but remember its highly toxic - nowhere near your balls! or they'll end up dead and then you can have em looking as pretty as you want em but they wont work! LOL
yeah just do it, be the first, the leader in the niche, and then take a picture of it, to show how this really increases your self confidence and how smooth and wonderful this is... maybe you could start a new fad... hhahehehehheh
Are you an aspiring porn star? Or otherwise trying to make money off of your looks "down there"?
If not, why make yourself plastic and unreal? You will then only attract plastic people. If that's what you want, go for it.
Also, from the more realistic side, do some serious research 1st and make sure you go to someone who has lots of experience in exactly that area. My friend went to a cheap Dr and ended up with a partially paralyzed lip because he hit the wrong spot. Can you imagine having a paralyzed penis? Just BE CAREFUL.
don't do it! botox is an experimental drug with bad side effects. my girlfriend did her lips and is having bad problems. one side has hardened and now she has to keep going back. she may have to have surgery to repair her lip. ( the nut sac should be wrinkled-- room for expansion when you get hard and swelled).
hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!! u had me dyin on this one. i cant stop laughing.
I'm sure this is a joke, but just in case, you can't put botox into the testicles and it doesn't work that way anyway, so it would have absolutely no effect. Take care : )
why would you bother...you are a queer...why don't you just cut them off....
why does it even matter, you are gay. No body gives a **** about gays, except other gays.
Do hair removing creams really make ur skin dark? I have hairs on my upper lips. I started using cream for it . just done a few times. waxing hurts and so does plucking. the permanent removal is expensive. is htere any cream that does not darken the skin.
I find hair removal creams burn my skin - So I'm getting laster and electrolysis
nair
perscription vaniqa
I heard creams are usually bad.
Darkening skin, burning it, irritating it, etc.
I would just, shave or something.
suck it up %26amp; wax
It doesnt darken the skin.
Dont those creams smell really bad though?
It does not make your skin dark. But I can tell you the smell can be really bad.
hmm, I have never heard of the removal creams causing your skin to get dark, i have been using them for over twenty years, and my skin is not dark... not sure which creams you are speaking of. Buy one that is specifically made for your face.
girl,,,,,, waxing is probably your best choice creams do make your skin darker. there is a certain kind my girl uses i dont know the name of it but they bring it on tv a lot so just be a girl and wax creams have bad chemicals in them and will cause irratation. and on the long run your skin will be dry
my gf had me use nair for myself...and there was no darkening anywere. I heard that some people are allergic to the active ingredients, and it may cause irritation.
as someone else said, suck it up and wax.
They do not make the skin dark but can burn the skin if you leave it on too long, and it will be red there for a day or two.
I use Sally Hanson on my upper lip, for the same reason you do. I agree with you that waxing, plucking and permanent removal are not worth the pain and expense.
I'll give you a little tip I discovered. Two days after you use the hair removal, use a bleaching cream. This way, if the first cream leaves any hair on the lip you can bleach the rest and it will stay pretty invisible-looking for a while.
Sally Hansen does not darken my skin at all, and I can cope with the smell. Tweezies is a rolling removal tool that keeps the hair away for a lot longer too, and it really doesn't hurt me, it just kind of scared me the first time I tried it. It isn't a shaver but it plucks the hair out at the root. I got mine at QVC.
tweezes for sure.

Does neighborhood health plan coves permanent facial hair removal ???
The only way to find an answer to this question is by calling your insurance company and asking them.
I'm not familiar with "Neighborhood Health Plan", but it sounds like an HMO (health maintenance organization). Since the removal of facial hair is probably deemed a cosmetic procedure, not a medical one, it is highly unlikely that any medical insurance pay for it.
Call them.
You can ask this question directly to your Insurance agent. He/She is the best source to find this answer.
Hello!
i am a 25 yrs old indian male with normal skin type. I wanted to ask
you about waxing techniques. i am not very hairy but i do have fair
amount of hair on my body. I've never really liked body hair and have tried
a few things to remove them i have used depilatery creams and shaved a
few times as well...mainly my chest. and now i usually trim them really
short, but still somehow not really satisfied. Now honestly i can not
afford a permanent laser hair removal(though i wish i could) so i guess
waxing is like the next best thing. so i just wanted to ask you can i
wax my chest still..despite of the fact that i have been trimming it
regularly, i mean wil it hurt a lot now? and since there aren;t any spas
that offer waxing for men. i'd be doing it at home only. so if u could
help me with some tips...i'd really appreciate that.
Thank You and God Bless
Don't do it by yourself. Get a profesional to come home and do it. If you live in India it's very cheap. I, personally, live in the UK and it costs 鎷?5 for my legs so i'm guessing it would be around that much for your chest.
On your chest it won't hurt TOO badly but if you have been trimming them it may hurt a bit more. If you have a lot of fat then it will hurt if it's muscle you won't feel it.
well, i heard that waxing is pretty painful and it can make you bleed if you do it at home, not by a professional, and it can rip your skin off along with your hair. so, i dont know. but, there's this really good waxing kit from sephora. i would go check it out. its about 45 dollars
hold the hairs that r unwanted imean hold it very tightly, close your eyes and skid them out very fast, then open your eyes .Now u can cry loudly with joy for hair removal.
I could very well make out from ur question that u r craving to have A body like SALMAN KHAN!!! If u ask me, I'd say "FORGET IT, BUDDY!" Y wud u want 2 go the feministic way? C'mon man! Guys thronging the salons and parlours to get their pimples %26amp; warts removed, hair fixed and all is fine... But waxing??? It's only funny! Ur body hair would only add to ur manliness... make u look macho! without them u'd look like a cleanly shaved BEAR!
wax where?!?!?!?
I am 32 years old having very light and silky hairs recently they start falling rapidly. they are gray, so I have to use the dye which should be non-harmful to my hairs please suggest which dye should I use and how to stop hair falling. Is there any cure for baldness, Is there any solution of permanent removal of baldness. please suggest.
Use herbal oils avoid hair coloring eat more and more fruits and best of luck.
Try Rogaine or Just for Men. My Dad has been using Just For Men for years and he likes the color blend alot!
okay when i read magazines or stuff about puberty its always like...some girls like..o my gosh i have 2 stray hairs onmy chest and nipple and then its like..o dont worry..during puberty having stray hair on yout stomach, breast, chest, nipple, even butt (eww) is pretty normal..just pluck them..then they say..if you have more than that much hair in that area see a doc cuz u have POS or anothr hormone issue....ok im 14 and i have hair evrywhere..i shave my legs, and underarms, and get my back and arms waxed..my mom said wheen im older and have the money i can do permanent laser hair removal..cuz full body wxing is gross and i wouldnot do it plus it would cost a fortune..and my hair grows back extremely fast..my wax shoulda lasted witout growth at least about 2 wks..3 days for me..i am italiana, spanish, and persian, and my fathers extremely hairy..but not my mom..for some reason..my older bro has less hair then me and its lighter on his body..yet the hair on his head is much darker...so.
Definitely, that's not a polycystic ovary syndrome..! believe me, I do have a knowledge of that syndrome.. your hair problem is genetically inherited from one of your parents. I also have the same case but don't bother too much, its a normal thing and there's nothing wrong with you.. But if you want to get rid of your hair, follow your mom's advice, when youre older get some permanent hair removal treatment.. you worry too much.. I'm 20 but I don't shave my legs, it will just make it worse.. And remember not to add up too much expenses to your mom, do something when you're already working okay? =D
It could be anything; don't prolong your suffering! See a doctor. If it's hormones they can prescribe medication. If it's not hormones, well they can still prescribed something to slow down the hair growth on your face at least.
Go to the doctors they can put your mind at rest either way and give you something to help it. If it is anythin serious you are better finding out sooner so you can go some way towards treating it
probably you didn't wax correctly, or you are examining yourself too closely... waxing should last more than 3 days. i would just keep trying the waxing - maybe try another brand or something.
Peace+
What is the safest, and fastest way to remove unwanted hair. One that's also not expensive and permanent I heard about this one product called Revitol Hair Removal Cream but I don't know if its safe. Thanks in advance! :)
laser treatment but it cost A LOT
shave
Shave; or go to like walmart and buy the Wax strips, They're pretty easy; The first time might hurt though.
GOOD LUCK!
well we would need to know where its at
Lighter fluid and a bic has always worked extremely well for me.
You can shave, but it grows back quickly and is all spiky. Or you can wax it, which lasts longer and the hair grows back tapered. Or you can use hair removal cream like you said (We have some but it doesn't work for me) Also you can get mitts which you put on your hand and rub up and down your leg or you can have laser treatment, which lasts ages but I've heard it's expensive.
If you are unsure of chemical products, I have started using one of those battery operated personal trimmers. The cheapest one I bought was $5 at a Walgreen's. I bought a Remington trimmer for $10 at Target as well. They are perfect for lip, eyebrow and chin hairs because they don't hurt and there is no redness or bumps. You don't even have to do it as often as shaving. You can't even tell hair once lived on your face :) Every once in awhile thou a good professional waxing is great
Sorry just read that you said its for legs...
Aveeno has a shaving cream that helps you to shave less often, or you could just try Veet or even the home waxing kits, but be careful they can burn.
You can check out the Walgreen's site and that way you know what you are looking for when you shop.
Good Luck and hope it helps.
How can I permanently remove hair from a benign flat mole on my face. Its cute, but it sprouts a few hairs that I pluck.
Id love to find a more permanent solution. Some doctors have told me laser hair removal, some say electrolysis, but some places wont do electrolysis on a mole. Has anyone has any experience with this?
Both laser and electrolysis are the latest techniques for permanent hair removal, and they are both very safe. Look for spas and beauty clinics in your city/state for a better advice.
all I can say is be really careful....moles are not to be messed with and some can turn to cancer, make sure you follow a doctors advice......
I am an esthetician and some of my clients have raised moles that I wax. They tell you in school to NOT wax raised moles because you can rip it off, but I am VERY VERY careful. You may have to call all the electrolysis centers in your area and specifically ask them if they'll do it for you.
Laser hair removal is definitely an option. The only problem is that lasers target pigment, so the lighter the skin and the darker the hair...the better. Is your mole dark? If so this might be a problem. I hear there are newer lasers that can target dark hair with dark skin (like for African Americans). So if your mole is dark, you may have to find that kind of laser. Call around to some medical spas in your area. Check for an Ageless Remedies in your area, they are very knowledgeable

I used to think the phrase "It'll put hair on yer chest" associated body hair with manliness. However its seems that 21st century ideal man is the bodily bald metrosexual, I think the term is, instead of aforementioned bear-man. I wonder this because I am a naturally hairier guy and I wanted the female insight. Also does is laser hair removal permanent or is waxing more preferable. Ladies please oblige
:) It depends on the girl, really. Most dont mind body hair (we do realize that in real life most guys are hairy) as long as it isnt like grizly man or something going on :) Just keep it neat.
As to hair removal, waxing (especially large areas) is really painful (not the best option ever) and laser hair removal, while it is permanent, can take several sessions and is fairly expansive. Like I said- just keep it neat and dont worry about being hairy, it's not a huge deal. But if you are set on hair removal you might try something like Nair first (it's quick, painless, and not permanent-though it does lat longer than shaving- the only downside is it smells bad).
Hope that helps.
I dunno, I'm a guy.
No. Keep your hair. If its over excessively hairy, you might want to think about it. But men with more hair on their chest is definitely better than hairless dudes.
No, I don't prefer hairless men. It's feminine. My boyfriend's pretty hairy, and I kind of like it. His chest hair tickles when we hug, and it's fun to play with when we're cuddling. Plus he looks extra manly and rugged. I think it's hot.
i dont like it if guys are SUPER hairy,,, but some isnt bad,,,
No! Men should have at least a little hair. If it's excessive and it bothers you, you can shave, wax, trim, whatever. But don't get rid of all your body hair, especially not on places like your arms and legs. If you have a hairy chest leave it, I kinda like it. And please, please, please do not shave all your pubic hair off. I think it looks so unmanly.
no, don't remove ur body hair. ive been raised w/ my mom saying that a hairy man is just a more manly-looking man. i just believe hair doesnt look bad on men. plus its not worth going thru all that trouble of waxing, shaving, and laser hair removal. hair doesnt look bad on men.
I have never liked hairy men much. I don't mind hairy legs/arms at all but I am simply not a big fan of extremely hairy chests, and hairy backs are a huge turn off for me. This is speaking just in aesthetic terms, if I love someone I don't care whether they are hairy or not.
omg,please don't remove the chest hair!! I Hate those bald men's looks,with a passion!! I have no idea which is best for hair removal,say on the back,,but some men shave their armpits and/or privates. I'm old school,but have no objection to smooth privates,or trimmed closely or a smooth back.A manly man cranks my turn,I've been known to walk away from "bald"bodies,noo thanks!! Reminds me of children!
yeah
I dont want any permanent treatment. can I wax that hair?? Is it true that shavin with a razor is not good?? using a cream hair removal system is too boring %26amp; time consuming. Whats the best way??
I don't know where you learned that using a razor for underarm hair wasn't good, but you got bad info. Using a razor is the easiest temporary way to remove underarm hair. If you have a nice sharp razor each time you shouldn't have any problems. Sometimes a dull razor can cause some problems such as razor burn and itchy bumps because the razor was too dull to cut the hair correctly so you have little stubbles still there. Also you must be sure to use a good shaving cream each time too. If you don't have any shaving cream make sure to lather up under your arms really well with soap and water before shaving. If you don't you will have a very painful razor burn.
You can wax under your arms but it is not a comfortable process. In fact it is quite painful.
Just buy yourself a good razor and shaving cream and stick with that.
leave it alone.
Shaving is best, creams burn and irritate.
Get it waxed. It WILL hurt.
friday the tirteen
there is nothing wrong with shaving....however waxing lasts alot longer....
gasoline, matchstick, FIRE!!!!
Waxing is the best way to go. The first time you do it, yes it will hurt, but the hair does grow back a lot finer, will take longer to grow, and if you keep on waxing, some of the hairs will stop growing.
If you're worried about the pain, there are pre depilatory oils that will lightly numb the skin before you wax. After you wax your underarms the 3rd or 4th time, the hair will come out A LOT easier, and waxing won't hurt as much.
I do not recommend shaving, it creates stubble and ingrown when it grows back, the hair will get thicker if you shave.
The depilatory creams can irritate underarm skin. The underarm area is very fragile and sensitive. Using those types of creams can burn.
I wax my underarms all the time. It's easy for me and my underarms are no longer dark from hair follicles. I don't think waxing hurts at all.
The only con I can think of for waxing, aside from the pain, is the cost. And that's if you get it professionally done. I buy home warm wax kits that don't require muslin strips. I do it at home all the time. It's very easy, and much cheaper.
Shavin and only when you needs it. Spartan
I wax my own %26amp; you get better with practice. Really strech your arm back - the tighter the skin, the less it hurts. But you get used to the short discomfort. Much better than horrible shaving or useless creams.
waxing is the best option.Shaving will make the skin hard %26amp; eventually make it black.depilatory creams may be less painful but be sure of the quality as bad quality ones have harsh chemicals that may give rashes %26amp; other allergic reactions apart from darkening the skin.
A Word of CAUTION
Don't wax your underarm hair yourself - hair should be pulled off from a particular angle to make it less painful %26amp; more effective as in - pulling more hair so you'd need less pulling.
I, myself, use the old-fashioned way: shaving ... sometimes takes longer, but a lot less painful!
You cant wax or shave with a razor. Do not use cream hair removal. It spoinls your skin and scar your colour. Hence, safe is razor shaving and application of dettor after shave is always welcome.
Shaving is quick and easy but all it is doing is blunting the hair which is why it grows back so quickly and stubbley.
I suggest that you get it waxed, it is'nt that painful at all but if you are worried take some paracetomol about an hour before hand this will act as a pain relief for you.
However try to avoid getting it done around the monthly's as this make's you even more sensitive it is ok to have it around this time but it does tend to be much more painful.
Waxing extracts the hair direct from the folicle itself, so you should be able to see the root of the hair, on the wax strip.
wax. I have done it a couple of times, it hurts a little for me, but it's so nice not having to shave for awhile. Make sure when you go, there's enough hair for them to wax. The hair can't be too short!
waxing is best
A friend of mine introduced me to the habit of hair removal, but now i see that it has made me more hairy than before i started. in addition to this the process is messy, is their a permanent way to remove hair?
waxing is a great way to get rid of unwanted hair, it gets rid of the hair for up to four weeks! its also very cheap if you go to a salon and when the hair grows back it really sparse. other than that epilation is a permanent method this is also cheap but a little painfull.
Laser hair removal. Laser is the only permanent way of removing hair.
creams
laser
Lasers
I suggest going to a dermatologist, because they are the only ones that can help you. the ladies with the electrodes charging an arm and a leg, do not have a permanent solutions. I know from experience, but a Dr. will give you your money's worth of knowledge....lots of luck....
u can try waxing or go for LASER treatment.NEVER use creams coz they'll make ur skin appear dark.Goodluck!
I dyed my hair with Manic Panic semi-permanent dye and not my hair is a greenish gray tint. I can't get it out. I have spent ALL weekend washing my hair...almost constantly, and I got a new shampoo that has ammonium sulfate in it and it seems to work better, but it didn't remove enough dye for it to be noticeable. I tried using soap, Dawn dish soap, moisturizing shampoo, shampoo for damaged hair, and I'm out of ideas. Someone suggested chlorine, but I'm not sure that makes a lot of sense. I really really really want it out before school tomorrow. Can anyone give me some ideas?
Personally, I would buy a darker color and redye it, hoping for the best.
I am 18 years old with black hair and light brown skin.
I've started to notice excess facial hair below my eyes but above my beard. I am perfectly ok with my normal beard but this extra hair just above it and parallel to it affects my look. I also have a little between my eyebrows (uni-brow in the making) and some hair on the extreme corners of my eye brows.
I have contemplated shaving the excess hair or even trimming it but cutting hair stimulates growth which i definitely don't want.
I need some hair removal methods that are long lasting but no permanent to get this hair outta the way. But since this area is very very sensitive i wont just use any cream or method without proof that it does not have side effects such as rashes etc.
If anyone knows a few good methods please share.
PS. i heard something about salons doin this for you but im not sure.
Thanks in advance
You can try waxing. I know your a man but you can try a womans product(it won't kill you)hair removal cream.
I plucked my upper lip hair because it looked like I had a light mustache. Several weeks later the hair started growing back in and even though I bleach the hairs that have reached the surface, I have the light mustache again (probably due to the hairs that haven't reached the surface yet). I don't know how long it will take those hairs to get to the surface and at that point I'll be where I started and the cycle will continue. Worse, though, would be if, after the hair grows back, even with bleaching, the dark roots would cause a permanent shadow (I have light sking and dark hair).
I didn't have that much noticeable upper lip hair before and worry that it may take a really long time for the newer hair to spring up. I am thinking I'll need something more permanent like electrolysis or laser hair removal.
Anyone with similar experience that could recommend what I should do? Thanks.
I have very light skin and dark hair. I did laser and it took it all away. It is fairly expensive, but definitely worth it. Waxing it every 2-3 weeks is just going to be a pain for you, I think.
just get it waxed every 2-3 weeks... or as you need it.. .
I had the same issue and finally used Surgi wax to get rid of it. It lasts a lot longer and gets rid of the hair totally, unlike bleach. Over time I noticed less and less grew back (took a year). It is sold at drug stores and is so easy to use. Also didn't make me break out - some facial wax kits can cause pimples. Make sure you wash your face before and after. And definitely don't use the wax kits that come with the wax attached to plastic strips, almost always cause breakouts. Good luck!
wax it every 3 weeks
successful permanent hair removal treatments. Is electrolosis the only option? Has anyone done it? How successful is it?
I think you should visit an American Laser clinic. They have many locations inside the U.S. You will usually need to complete six treatments before the hair is permanently removed. American Laser also offers free treatments if the hair is not completely gone after the sixth treatment. Laser hair removal is expensive, but American Laser has payment plans. It may take three or four months to permanently remove the hair. Not many people get electrolysis anymore. It's more painful and time-consuming. I think it's more expensive too.
I have a friend who did laser hair removal down there. She was very happy with it.
Keep in mind that pubic hair may come back into fashion. Bald (or nearly) could end up looking silly and old fashioned.
I know it's hard to imagine, but body grooming fashion really comes and goes. Not too long ago, all of the playboy models had pubic hair (not just landing strips). Chances are good that pubes will come back into fashion some day.

hope it helps you as it helped me!
Only cavewomen are hairy, no matter where...
I would look into laser therapy. electrolosis takes forever, it's very expensive, and painful! I had my inner thighs lasered and want to continue to include the same area----for the same reasons.
Sorry I am not interested in ...child like PU**Y.
Laser hair removal is a great option and works very well on the bikini area. My wife has her ua's, bikini and legs done 6 years ago and the hair is still gone.
Make sure you go to someone qualified, however.
Electrolysis is very time consuming and hurts alot more.

I don't know whether it is said 'shaving' or waxing, yet anyway I would like to know if permanent hair removal by using a laser is in any way harmful or increases the risks of any disease? I too would like to know why in the 2 places I asked for prices, one was extremely more expensive than the other... Is there a better way? A safer way?
It is very safe. The price may have been dramatically different because A. The quality of the equipment was very different or B. One of the locations had to pay a Dr. a substantial amount more for oversight. You can go to www.HairRemovalForum.com and they can give you pricing variances around the country or go to SignatureForum.com to see provider rankings.
Good Luck.
I would recommend talking to your dr about the issue of the safety of laser is.
As for waxing some women have talked about having good results with Brazilian wax.
As for companies that charge higher prices part of that is because you are paying for the name just like will often occur with brand name clothing.
Electrolysis and laser hair removal are 閳ユ笡ermanent閳?hair removal methods but are expensive and you have to find a trained professional, otherwise your skin could be damaged.

Is coco powder good for health ?
Which laser is best for permanent hair removal ?
Not 100% sure but offhand I would say Benadryl.
or electric tweezer for permanent hair removal .
No. Nothing works except for electrolysis and to a lesser effect, laser.
The needle has to touch the root of the hair to kill it so electric tweezers is yet another scam. Visit http://www.hairfacts.com/methods/etweeze...
for more information on electric tweezers
i was wondering if anyone had any experience with these machines and if they work if it take awhile thats ok as long as it is permanant does this on look like it would work?http://www.vitasprings.com/acra-permanen...
I had one of those things, it sat in my drawer for years until I threw it out. I didn't try it much because it was laborious. Plus, if you don't do it right, you could hurt yourself. Leave electrolysis to the professionals. It's only 30 dollars for 30 minutes.
i actually saw that and wanted to try that myself...but i figured it was a load of ****...LOL..im going to check to see if anyone answers....i know someone who said a girl they know used it for a long time and it actually worked...but who knows...i seriously doubt it.
like the girl above said...thats why i didnt try it...cos i was scared id get pot holes on my face...LOL hair is one thing...but scars is another...those you cant remove..
I bought one and tried it a couple of times. I had trouble trying to get the needle directly into the hair follicle and also it hurt! It sat on the shelf for a while and then I threw it out, A waste of money.
dont u HATE shaving!
(legs i mean)
i do!!!
y cant they just invent a permanent hair removal cream thingy thats not expensive, dosent stink, %26amp; 4 your legs?!
nair works but it smells like EGGS!!!
has enyone noticed that?or is it just me?(the nair smelling thing)
I wax or I use Nair Pretty (it's supposed to be specifically for teens I think... the peach kind. It doesn't smell nearly as bad). The only permanent solution is laser hair removal I think.
Thank you! Hope it works... : ) Report It
OMG ur right Nair smells soo bad i cant use it!!!
My legs aren't hairy at all,haha [evil laughter] XD
Yes I do hate shaving and Nair does smell really bad. Ewww! I used it once but will never use it again because of the smell.
I hate shaving! Waxing is better, but still no fun. And you're right-Nair stinks!
i dont have to shave that often. i really dont have a hair issue. i could go 3 weeks without shaving. and 3 weeks for me is like a week for my friends.
I wax, it hurts but it doesn't smell bad
ugh it smells so bad!!! sometimes ill just wear long pant no matter what just cuz i dont want to shave and i cant bring myself to use nair and waxing is expensive
Nair does stink! Once i get older I'm getting laser hair removal. I can't stand hairy legs but I also hate shaving.
yes i hate shaving!!!!...its so annoying!!..and most of the creams don't even work and are stinky and messy...
if i had the money i would get Lazer hair removal
hahah yeahh nair definatly smells like eggs. i hate shaving too.
HECK YA!!!i havent sheved mine in 2 weeks lol!im gonna shave me today!yes i wax my mustache with nair its gross.
NAIR is so disgusting!
I use a mans shaving gel in the shower...it works GREAT!
Has anyone used an at home permanent hair removal and if so did it work? What brand? I want to get the machine called "finally free ultra plus hair remover" but I dont want to waste money or anything. Can anyone help me with this please? Thank you
I used one before....VERY time consuming and stings a little bit. It left a little scab in every hair pore, but it worked for the little patch that I did in 3 freakin hours!!!
If you have normal to fine hair it works great, but if you have gorilla hair dont even bother with it.
my vagina is turning kinda grey and bigger, i do masturbate and i'm getting intense light pulse permanent hair removal to remove the pubic hair down there but the session was on 8/1 and i just noticed the color....what's wrong with me?
PLEASE stop using the word VAGINA when you mean VULVA.
Part of your VULVA is discolored ... OK ... this is a good reason to see a doctor.
Please! I just ate.
ok. so when i shave my legs...i find it pointless b/c the hairs grow back the next day...i've tried waxing and it takes to long. then i tried veet...and that is the same way as shaving. i'm too young to have permanent hair removal...what do i do???
just shave it every day...if u want your legs to look nice, then that`s one of the few options available!!! i do it every day %26amp; it doesn`t take long, once u become accustomed...it`s just part of your daily beauty regimen...
mine goes back the next day to, the more you shave the slower the hair grows in.
Go au' natural. Nothing wrong with alittle hair....I dont see whats the big deal...like the people who get all disgusted. Im all 4 hippie chicks
hair removal cream/gel or whatever its called. it lasts for a few days and only takes about 5 minutes: a couple of minutes to put it on, and leave it on for 3 m ins and then rinse off.
either let you hair grow out and shave only when you need/want to. Or keep doing what you are doing and live with it.
You've tried pretty much tried everything. Good Luck, when you find something let me know, I hate shaving too!!
shave every day then less hair will grow back.
im soo sorry i forgot what its called, but there is this lotion like stuff that your just rub on your skin and it slows hair growth, so i guess that would be a good option!!! =] =]
well you shouldn't shave your legs EVERYDAY!! but you could just shave at night and then some in the morning for the days you show your legs. but its okay not to shave when you are wearing pants..... no one will know :)
paste of poiling sugar i donno the real name but u can get it by boiling sugar with some water until it become as paste
use it to remove any hair anywhere on your body
Hair removing cream. It will work.
It cant grow back that thickly in a short space of time..
i think you should wax it every three days
and continue that
and eventually less hair will grow..
there is a lotion from johnson %26amp; johnson
*or is just johnsons?
i dunno but yeah
they have a lotion that makes hair finer so its not as noticeable..
be careful and take care!

i thread my upper lip hair instead of waxing and the next day i am completely red above the upper lip. is there a cream i can use to reduce the redness. i have decided not to go threading anymore and to just get it lasered off w/ permanent hair removal.
A little hydrocortisone cream should help soothe the area. Good luck on your laser treatment! I have a lot of friends who've had legs and underarms done and they're THRILLED with the results!.
I have hairy breast, hair on my stomach, hair on my back and butt. It's EXTREMELY visible, i have no money to get surgery. What are some long-term options I have for permanent hair removal, that are affordable. As u can guess this has thrown my self esteem out the window, how can I repair that as well.
If you do decide you have to do something, then there isn't a simple answer.
Facial (and also body) hair on women comes about in the same way as on men because of
1) your body being sensitized, before you were even born, to testosterone -- doesn't happen to all girls, but does to many
2) your body producing high levels of testosterone
The growth rate and coarseness of the hair depends on just how much testosterone is circulating in your bloodstream.
Steer clear of bleaching -- when someone sees you against the light you'll look as if you have a glowing moustache and/or beard.
As far as removing it is concerned it's worth remembering that
* Waxing, plucking, threading, epilating all pull the hair out by the roots and where the growth is hormonally-driven can actually stimulate a dormant follicle into producing more hair quicker. They also distort the root if done repeatedly, leading to hair growing at strange angles. And you've got to let the hair grow to quite a length before you can repeat the exercise. It can also damage the skin and discolor it. Long-term use of waxing also causes bad wrinkles.
* Chemical depilatories strong enough to remove the hair are very likely to burn the skin, cause swelling and cause long-term discoloration of the skin.
* Laser is also liable to cause burning and discoloration and in any case only works effectively on a dark hair/light skin combinantion.
* Electrolysis is very liable to cause scarring and discoloration of the skin.
Which, like it or not, leaves shaving which does not damage the skin. Best done with a men's-style electric razor, the best of which, for women, are probably those from the men's range of Norelco razors (Philishave outside the US). Most women who try a men's Norelco wonder why nobody ever told them about it before.
sounds like you have too much testosterone in your body. Check with your doctor i'm sure there are hormone pills that they give you. Although i'm not possitive, can't hurt to ask.
We all have testosterone... yes, even girls. It sounds like you have a little more. Ask your doctor about this.
And don't worry. I have a lot of peach-fuzz hair on my stomach too. It's annoying. So you're not the only one.
Permanent hair removal isn't really permanent. You have to go in and get it done several times to keep it up. And it's very expensive.
I think you should see your doctor and have your hormone levels checked.It may be some type of chemical imbalance that can be easily fixed.As for removal there is waxing ,it lasts a couple of weeks and is semi affordable.Good Luck!
Nair or waxing can help... I have a little bit of hair on my lower back %26amp; in the summer I use Nair to get rid of it. It makes it really smooth %26amp; it lasts for a while! You can use that Nair on your breasts, stomach, back %26amp; butt. As for you face they have a Nair especially for that. But you might want to try waxing too. A little more painful but it gets rid of the hair! Usually any Salon or Spa can do this for you or you can get an "At Home" waxing kit %26amp; do it yourself. And dont worry there are tons of other girls that have this same problem so dont let a little hair get you down. Especially when there is a way to get rid of it. I hope this helps! Good Luck :)
wax them
Marry me!?!?
you need to take hormone pills... they will clear all that up. go see a doc to get the pills.
type 'natural facial hair remover' on the search for questions

Either shave it, or get a cheap waxing product that is within 100.00.

SHAVE IT !!!!!!!!!
My husband is a very hairy man. He has hair all over. Well the worst is on his back and his butt. Does anyone know any helpful ways to remove the hair without waxing, nair or permanent hair removal? Please no snide comments. Thank you in advance!
Waxing is the best way to go. Its recommended by everyone. And for the brazilian wax you should take advil or any pain reliever an hour before the waxing. that would help with the pain. The people who do it are really good and fast. THe first time you get it done it hurts a little, of course, but if you keep waxing you bascially get use to it. Usually they leave a little hair at the top but you can ask them to take that part as well and they go all the way to the back. Trust me you should give it a shot. afterwards you feel so clean and fresh. hope this helped!
i think waxing is your best bet...i dont think there is any other way to remove it....
just wax it
well there's laser? that's really expensive though, and probably he'll have to go more than once. and waxing your eyebrows i think hurts less than plucking them, because when you pluck them you are slowly pulling one hair out at a time, whereas when you wax them you get a whole bunch out at the same time and it's faster. you can also try and shave your husbands back?
Shaving - either with manual razor or electric.
Plucking - but that gets painful.
What's wrong with Nair? After you wash off, the smell goes away. It's painless and doesn't leave you susceptible to ingrown hairs. If you don't specifically like Nair, there are other depilitary products, like Veet.
There is another method of waxing called Sugar Waxing which is supposed to be less messy.
Or, you can just learn to love your hairy man just the way God made him.
ad you could buy a shaver (like the kind he shaves his mustache with) or you could use a regular razor
waxing is prob. the best choice.
plus won't it be fun listening to him yell while waxing his bottom!
haha :)
but about your eyebrows i find tweezing to hurt more than waxing them
it doesnt hurt at all!
A friend of mine sugar waxes the backs/shoulders of both her husband and son. Be sure to exfoliate first.
Folliculitis = infections of the hair follicules (basically after waxing or shaving, when your hair grows back, it sometimes gets infected and causes pimples with pus).
I have this problem, and doctors tell me that there is nothing I can do about it (except put a cream antibiotic "Fucidin H" on the pimples once they're already there).
It is a very annoying problem, because I don't know what to do about it. I'm thinking to try the Lazer for a permanent hair removal... which is basically my only alternative...
If anybody has any suggestion, or a cure for Folliculitis it would be great to hear it !!
:)
Folliculitis is a result of damage to the follicle which leads to infection. The boils/carbuncles you get are the signs of infection. Common causes of follicle damage (which may apply to you) are friction from tight clothing or shaving, excess perspiration, acne or dermatitis, and abrasions (scrapes).
Because folliculitis is a recurring conditon, prevention rather than cure is a reasonable strategy. While it's not always possible to prevent all infections all the time, you can greatly reduce the recurrence by avoid tight clothing, by shaving with care and using a new blade each time. Or use an electric razor or depilatory. It may not be possible to avoid excess persipration but keep your skin as clean and dry as you can. Try your best to avoid situations and locations where you may sweat excessively.
Continue to treat any existing carbuncles with the Fudicin. Wash your hands before and after using the cream. Wash the boils with mild soap and water before applying the cream.
As far as laser hair removal, do some research on the impact it has (if any) on folliculitis. I truly hope everything works out for you.
Don't wax your armpit, just shave it, and put some aloe vera cream to make it cool, just like men did after they shave
have you tried depilatory creams?
Still, permanent removal sounds like your best option.
I would do the laser treatment- You will never have to worry about any creams or shaving carefully- it will just be done and over with, and you wont have to be self concious or anything. good luck!
Exfoliate skin gently,so trapped, dead skin doesn't cause bumps.Apply Cortaid after exfoliating;the Cortaid will thin the skin to make it less likely that plugs will occur.Make sure that your razor is very sharp.Otherwise,the laser treatment will let you be hair free for a longer period of time,but maybe you should ask a dermatologist who does laser hair removal about what the growing back of hair will be like for someone with your problem.
BEFORE COMMITTING TO IT:
1. Find a reputable salon/clinic with properly trained staff (people with a background in nursing are the best)
2. Go for a consultation and get all the facts before you make a decision. They might do a free test for you on your arm so that you can experience the sensation (it ain't a walk in the park for some people - everyone's got a different pain threshold)
FAST FACTS:
* Laser hair removal typically requires multiple sessions (between 4 and 6 minimum) because hair grows in a cycles.
* You may be required to pay a high price PER session and then after the minimum number, you can either be put on a maintenance program (where you pay per zap) or go back to them for free treatments (pricing purely depends on the salon/clinic).
* It's fine for you to wax/shave inbetween sessions (people can't always make their appointments on exact days)
* The laser works best on dark hair on light skin
* For fine hair (like on your upper lip), the minimum number of sessions can be up to 10
* Skin on different parts of the body has different sensitivity levels (i.e. your eyelid skin is different to the skin on your back, right?). Having your underarms lasered might be almost painless while having your bikini lasered could leaving your skin burning for a while afterwards.
* Initially, you may experience little or no pain (depending on area treated), but be aware that the voltage may be increased with every session you go (this achieves better results).
* To help with the pain during the treatment, you can go to a pharmacy and get an anaesthetic cream (ask the clinic/salon to recommend a good one to you). This cream has to be applied a short time before the treatment.
THE PROCESS:
- You and the nurse/beautician will be required to wear special goggles during the procedure
- The nurse/beautician will spread a gel over the affected area.
- While using the laser, a jet blowing cold air will make the gel icy cold in order to help numb the pain once the nurse/beautician starts "firing away".
- Once treatment of the area is complete, the nurse will wipe away the gel and apply a soothing cream/lotion.
- Afterwards, you may be given a coldpack to put on the affected area to help numb any lingering pain you might experience.
BOTTOM LINE:
- The results are very much worth the pain.
- DON'T go for 1 or 2 sessions then give up ("pain" is not a reason to quit). Commit yourself to going for the minimum number of sessions (even if you decide to spread the sessions out over a longer period).
i realli wan to get rid of all those ugly body hair..... helppp... becus of these ugly hair.. i cant wear sleeveless shirts and shorts.... i heard the commercials that say they r not painful... but den again, how could laser treatment not be painful... or is there any other ways for PERMANENT hair removal???
Hi, There are other ways. Electrolysis is one. I did a lot of research %26amp; I chose Laser hair Removal for myself. I believe that Electrolysis would be more painful.
I have to tell you that it DID NOT hurt! I promise. I was very surprised. It also depends on what part of the body you do. I was told that the Bikini area %26amp; under the arms are sensitive %26amp; can hurt a little. If so, they can prescribe a numbing cream to apply before the procedure. It is actually a very quick process. If you are doing your legs for for example, it will take a bit longer. I was so surprised out how easy %26amp; painless it was. I cannot wait for my next appt! You do not go just one time %26amp; the hair is gone. You have to go at least 4-8 treatments. It is a process. Most people go an average of 6. Where I went, I paid one set price for as many treatments I need. Make sure that you ask what kind of laser they use. Then do research %26amp; make sure it is one of the newer ones out there. It really is something I recommend. You will be so much happier. I wish I had done it sooner %26amp; it is really nothing to be scared about. It is not painful. Good Luck!
I had mine done at Ideal Image. They are located in 12 different states. Here is their website.
http://www.idealimage.com/
No, they did not put anything on my skin before using the laser. They did put on aloe after though. My girlfriend just told me that it did hurt getting it under her arms, but that she would do it again, cause she never has to shave %26amp; loves it.
eLECTROLYSIS.
Body hair is an acceptable attribute of masculinity. Poor writing is not. Learn grammar and how to punctuate. All sentences start with a capital letter.
I used laser for veins on my legs and it hurt like hell. It felt like I was getting shocked and it was very painful
I have had lazer on lips and chin and it does hurt in this area. Mine was done by a dermatologist and most of it is back already. For the amount of money I had to spend and it being such a large area I think I would go for professional waxing.
A male friend of mine who has a unibrow and really does not like it. I am trying to help him research and he is undecided on whether to use tweezers and pluck the stray hairs or just let the hair stay. Waxing and permanent hair removal are not options at this point of time for him as he does not own a car that would get him to the beauty salon or can afford it. How fast do the hairs grow back when you tweezer them? THat is the main concern. He does not want to tweezer every day.
The more you tweeze, the slower the hairs will grow back. Tweezing damages the roots. You may have to tweeze every couple of weeks for the first little while. I tweeze my eyebrows about once a month (but I've been tweezing for years).
Start after a hot shower or steam the face to open the pores. Hold the skin taut, and pull in the direction the hair is growing. If it hurts apply gentle pressure for a few seconds with a finger. A cool cloth or aloe gel right after tweezing will reduce redness.
Lastly, a word of caution. Do not over tweeze. It can be habit forming! Step back from the mirror and look at the whole face every few hairs to make sure that you aren't making the eyebrow too thin or lopsided. Goodluck!
Tweezing is the best plan, and he wont have to tweeze everyday, just gradually start tweezing so its less noticeable, it usually takes about 2 weeks for it to grow back.
It takes about a week or so for an individual hair to grow back. Tell him tweezing doesn't hurt and it's cheap and easy.
Waxing is the only way your going to get rid of all of it. See if you can have a friend to take him or something.
I'm 15 (turning 16 soon) and I want to get plastic surgery. I tried posting earlier but all I did was get bashed. So please don't bash me this time. How much do these surgeries cost? How fast can I start getting them? I'd like to have them all completed by the time I'm 20 or 21. Please post info and expierence is welcome. Thanks.
I want to get these surgeries:
Breast Implants
Rhinoplasty/Septoplasty
Arm Lift
Mole Removal
Ear Reduction/Scuplting
Lip Augmentation
Botox
Chemical Peel
Toe Reduction
Blepharoplasty
Permanent Hair Removal
Tooth Extraction
Invisible Braces
Veneers
I don't know if this surgery exist but I'd like to get a hair transplant to create a widow's peak on my hair line. Also I may consider butt implants if my slims down to much as I lose weight (from steroids).
I was really sick when I was younger and my body took a beating from it so I feel I was kinda robbed of my youth. I know I won't look young forever but I'd like to look young while I am.
I'm sorry so many people were bashing you. A lot of these surgeries a fine and not extreme. A lot of them i want to get. Understand that these prices differ from surgeon to surgeon and state to state. Be sure you research your surgeon extremely well and make sure he or she is board certified. As for the widow's peak i'm unsure but i'll guess a few thousand. Many of these surgeries you can get at once but you will need to speak with a surgeon about which ones. Also you will need your parents' permission since you are under 18 or you can wait untill you are 18. Good luck to you!

Invisible braces are great, I've had them and get frequent compliments on my teeth, those are installed by an orthodontist they cost upwards of six thousand dollars depending on your teeth (they would cancel out the need for veneers, which actually ruin your teeth because to install them your teeth have to be ground down). Chemical peel would probably get done by an dermotologist and cost maybe a few hundred bucks. Mole removal should be relatively cheap it is a very quick procedure, takes a few seconds ( in the low hundreds). Laser hair removal sounds something safe. Everything else will do more harm than good, be careful if you have a bad medical history. For example, toe reduction sounds like it would ruin your balance, botox is a controlled dose of jellyfish poison. Be sensible for best results.
I have been reading up on permanent hair removal methods and I have found that electrolysis seems to be the only permanent method of removing hair. I am looking to have all my pubic, perineum, buttocks, back, armpits and chest hair removed. Do anyone know how many sessions this would take and if certain areas are more painful than others?
Thats a lot of hair to be removed..it will take a lot of sessions and be very expensive!
It is quite painful, especially around the pubes and armpits.
You would need to check with a salon they would work on the areas you want treated. I've found electrolysis uncomfortable but if it's for permanent hair removal it's worth it! Why don't you go in for a trial - you could perhaps have a five minute session to see how you could cope?
I've had Lasar Hair removal treatments at hospital. It is extremely painful, I won't lie. It cost me 鎷?00 per 15 mins session. I needed 8 sessions. Good luck.
-How old were you when you started shaving your legs?

-How often do you have to shave to keep your legs smooth?
-Have you tried other hair removal techniques?
-Would you consider permanent hair removal if it was more affordable?

RAHHHHHHHHHHHH
I have very dark, coarse hair on my lower legs, and although they feel smooth after I shave them, I can still see the shadlow of the hair below the surface. How do I get rid of this? Even using depilatories doesn't make my skin look hair-free, and I'm not willing to go through the trouble of waxing/epilating or permanent hair removal. Has anyone had this same problem, and found a product that helps? I've heard of hair growth deterrents, but I've never used them and I don't know if they work for dark, coarse hair.
I also have thick hair on my lower legs and arms (which I wax), but I never get the shadow effect, If I were you I wouldn't use the hair deterrents , it doesn't work I've tried many products but they never work. Try getting your legs tanned that way you can't see the shadow cos your legs will be brown and it will blend in, also try not to shave it while the hairs a still short, if you can maybe shave every 3-4 days to allow the hair to grow properly I find that helps a lot.
omgg i have that too! it literally looks like big dark pores on my leg or something haha
I have literally put foundation on my leg just to cover it up and
if you find out a way , pleassee let me know
your not alone with this haha
dont shave!! it brings 2wice the hair and makes it more thick!! use an epilator..
Me too going thru the same thing! But not yet been able to think of/find a solution!
i think u should opt for waxing as no hair residue is left and your hair start growing after 3 weeks. but before shaving u can try a moisturiser and than start shaving!!!
do you shave comming up towrards your knee? Or downward?
The best way I have tried was, to shave downward. What I mean by that is, instead of shaving upward [starting at ankel and comming up], start at the top of your leg and go down. Make sure you use shaving cream as well.
Good luck
I have that too. I found out about Jergens Shave Minimizer Cream or something like that, but I haven't found it in any store that I've looked for it at. Then there's this Surgi Hair Stop that supposed to make your leg hair (or whatever hair i guess) finer and less noticable. After a couple weeks of use it stops hair growth. I really want it, but I can't find that anywhere! I think you can buy it online at like 2 places, that's it. Anyway I don't know if these work. I just thought I'd let you know about it. Good Luck!
Those are ingrown hairs. I had them a couple of weeks ago and this helped. I now use Aveeno shave gel for sensitive skin and Noxema razors. These help my skin to look even. This combo shaves very well and is gentle on my sensitive skin. Only shave 1-2 times per week. Hope I helped!
omg me too but sorry i don't know either, let me know if you find out
laser is the best option , but it's expensive.
if you fear the pain that comes with waxing get it professionally done or use the braun hair remover with the massage apparatus that relives pain or apply ice or take ibuprofen before using it. there are other more effective methods for pain but not neccesarily safe so i won't mention them .
you can also use a painfree method that helps exfoliate skin as well which is the use of abrasives like pumice rock or sand paper gloves bu it is not commonly used today
if you continue to shave your legs will feel and look like a man's chin which is not good , keep shaving for emergencies .
I have that too. try shaving alittle less and investing in a very good razer. also try a hair remover or wax, or put tanning lotionon your legs.
Hi! Shaving is really ineffective... it works for a very short time, and it doesn't remove hair perfectly... it also irritates the skin a lot. So, what are some other ways to remove facial hair? I know there's laser hair removal, but it's much too expensive for me now. :( I know I'll never want any facial hair, so permanent methods are welcome :)
There are facial hair removal creams on the market (even in the grocery stores) that are quite effective. Personally I like the electric gizmos that look like a shaver but they pluck the hair instead of cutting it, therefore removing the roots. You can buy one in cosmetic stores anywhere from $25. to $75.
Rip the skin off?
Waxing But anything other than shaving is extrodinariyl painful. I use an electirc shaver with good effect.
I have tried exfoliating with everything out there! ANything that an estetician suggests, I do. Yet I still end up with ingrown hairs all over my legs. I don't shave on a regular basis either, but when I do, I always use a new blade and shaving gel for women. The only option I can think of at this point is permanent hair removal..unless someone can suggest something?? Please help, as it tends to cause a little pain in areas.
Wow...that's quite a pickle. The only other option that I can think of that you haven't suggested would be sugaring. It's very similar to waxing, except that it is supposed to be a bit gentler on your skin. This might reduce the number of ingrowns you get, but I can't guarantee anything. When you waxed your legs, did you do it with an at home waxing kit, or at the salon? The salon might be a place to try as they have much better luck at removing all the hair. With an at home waxing kit, you just can't reach everything and remove it as cleanly as a professional. If you want to try it at home, try getting one of the warm wax kits that you can heat up in the microwave or on the stove. This opens up your follicles, letting you remove the hairs more cleanly.
I hope something I suggested here works. Until it does, you're doing the right thing by exfoliating every day. Even using a loofah on dry skin helps remove dead skin. If all else fails, laser hair removal or electrolysis might be the way to go, if you're willing to shell out the big bucks. Good luck!
In regards to your OHIP question...I honestly have no idea. My first thought would be to say no because electrolysis isn't a "required" procedure. But I'd check it out with your provincial government, cause stranger things have happened! Report It
which areas? :)
I get this too or used to. I stopped shaving and started waxing and have never hd those bumps again.
Use Bikini Zone. It will make the bumps go down. After they are gone wax don't shave with a razor anymore. Get nair. I get the kind that I wipe on...wait 15 min and wipe it off with a damp, warm washcloth then shower to remove the rest of the hair. It gives me a very smooth finish and no bumps!!
Remember: get the bikini zone (I got mine at wal-mart) then get some nair. You can find them in the same aisle at wal-mart.
