There are many ways to take off unwanted hair, but some ways are better than the others. There is plucking and shaving for the conservative ones, waxing for the more adventurous, and for the extreme risk-taker, there are laser treatments available. As different people have varying needs, there are certainly hair removal processes that will work for you and your lifestyle. The question is, which one?

Plucking
Undoubtedly the cheapest means, plucking requires the use of tweezers in pulling out hair strands from an area of the body that you want to rid of hair. It is recommended for small areas only such as eyebrows, isolated facial hair, and armpits. It can be a little painful, especially if you pinch yourself with the tweezers. For painless plucking, applying ice to numb the area before the procedure is recommended.

Shaving
Shaving is recommended for hair removal in larger areas of the body. You can use a regular shaver or one of the ergonomic shavers available in the market. While electrical shavers are cost-effective, they do not produce a close shave. The non-electric variations give a closer, cleaner shave, especially when used with a good shaving cream. Shaving is virtually painless, unless you cut yourself. The hair grows back in a few days' time.

Waxing
Probably the most painful hair removal procedure, waxing will require application of wax solution to the hair. This may be applied as a cream or thru commercial wax strips. When applied as a cream, the wax will be removed through a spatula. The wax is taken off along with the hair. This procedure may also be one of the more costly. However, it will take about one week before the hair grows back, depending on the brand of wax you use.

Laser hair removal
One of the hippest, albeit expensive, hair removal method is the use of laser.This may be done for almost any part of the body, big or small. In some cases, depilation can be made permanent--the hair will not grow back. Laser back hair removal is one of the most in demand procedure using laser, along with procedures for the armpit, legs, and bikini line.
