Which is the best method of hair removal for me? It is a difficult question to answer. Each man is born with different skin type, preferences, and wanting a pain free method. Also, the amount of time you can spend on grooming also determines your choice of method. Waxing is usually considered the most effective hair removal method and is more popular than other methods too. It is followed by depilatories, trimming and shaving. Trimming is the newest way of hair removal for men. Trimmers are easy to sue and can be used during shower as well and can be used on any part of the body. But these methods do not prevent hairs from growing back. In a weeksEUR(TM) time, you can see visible growth and you would have to endure pain all over again. Let us go through the methods available for you to get rid of stubborn body hair:

• Body hair removal creams: WomenEUR(TM)s body hair remover lotion works to condition the skin in the underarms, bikini area and legs as it eliminates hair. But body hair removal creams arenEUR(TM)t just for women. Hair removal for men creams can get rid of hair on your back, chest, arms or legs. If you use a natural body hair removal cream such as Keramene, you would save yourself from chemical ingredients that may harm your skin. You can follow it up by using a hair inhibitor spray. This spray will work to inhibit future hair growth and needs to be used just after treatment. Ultra Hair Away is an inhibitor spray, not to be mistaken for depilatory. Made from natural plant enzymes this spray intends to saturate your hair follicles and disable the cells responsible for hair growth. Depending on which part of the body you use this spray on, the results can vary. It can last up to 7-8 weeks on small areas such as face and upper lip. You can avoid hair regrowth for 3-4 weeks on areas such as legs and chest.



• Electrolysis: While the name sounds threatening, the process isnEUR(TM)t very painful. This method involves a needle zapping hair at its roots and removing it. But the effectiveness can differ from man to man and from hair follicle to hair follicle. The advantage presented by electrolysis is that it weakens hairs at the root and eventually eliminates growth. But it is significantly more expensive than waxing and body hair removal creams and the time frame in which this method can help remove hair from your body can take even up to a year.



• Laser treatment: A laser beam is sent through the skin to destroy the hair follicles which are responsible for hair growth. The results would depend on skin pigmentation and color of your hair. Dark hair absorbs laser energy faster and makes it easier to treat. Men with fair skin and black hair will find this as a suitable option for hair removal. Tan messes with skinEUR(TM)s pigmentation and can lead to blistering or permanent discoloration; hence you should not try to get laser treatment done if you have recently tanned. While laser is an effective way to remove unwanted hairs, it is also one of the most expensive methods, with each session running into a few hundred quid. Do they hurt? There could be mild burning sensation after the treatment but not too much. And by applying a soothing cream, you can overcome the feeling. The ideal places to get laser treatment are back, unibrow, and nape of neck, where you never want to see hair return. This method is specially preferred by athletic men who feel body hair hinders their performance.
