Hair Removal – Tips on Permanent Hair Removal
Category: Permanent Hair Removal | Dec 20, 2009 |
Waxing is a popular (but painful) hair removal option. You will have longer lasting results with waxing versus plucking or shaving. You can be hair free for up to three weeks. Waxing is a good option but it can get quite expensive over time if you are trying to control excessive hair growth on your neck, chin or face. Women who are looking for a more permanent form of hair removal for these areas opt for investing in a more long term hair removal option.

Laser hair removal has become extremely popular because of its speed and efficacy, although some of the efficacy is dependent upon the skill and experience of the laser operator, and the choice and availability of different laser technology at the clinic which is performing the procedure.
Some will need touch-up treatments, especially on large areas, after the initial set of 3-8 treatments. It has also been observed that some people seem to be non-responders – this is not confirmed and reasons are not known, and may in fact be due to lack of skill on the part of many laser operators and/or the type of machine and settings they are using.
A depilatory is a cream or liquid that removes hair from the skin’s surface. They work by reacting with the protein structure of the hair, so the hair dissolves and can be washed or wiped away.
Tips on Permanent Hair Removal
Bleaching — An alternative to hair removal, lasts about two or three weeks. Lightens the hair closer to skin tone, so that it is harder to see. (One should use a bleach specifically meant for body hair.)
Depilatory creams use chemicals to dissolve the hairs at the skin’s surface. They are often used for facial hair removal or removal of hairs around the bikini line. Different creams can be purchased for different hair removal tasks. As these creams contain harsh chemicals, they may irritate the skin. For this reason, all creams should be tested on the skin before use.
Waxing — It can hurt, particularly when one is new to the method, but leaves the area pretty smooth, and lasts one to six weeks, depending on the person.
Lasers — This is the latest, state-of-the-art, perfectly hygienic, painless (I’m almost implying perfect) way to permanent hair removal.Extremely fast, and usually less pain than with electrolysis. Effects are long lasting and may be permanent after several sessions. One must avoid sunlight while healing.
Electrolysis: Professionally it is known as “Derma blend”, and the technique uses a needle to reach the hair bulb in each follicle & passes a DC current a short burst of AC current to kill the hair bulb permanently. Quite widely advertised earlier, it’s now considered only second best to lasers as it’s time consuming (even an expert can remove only 30-40 hairs per hour) & some hair bulbs might still escape & cause regrowth

veet hair removal creme………its a gud product
I had my laser hair removal today first time! I had my underarms done. It took about 20 minutes, I felt the pain, but it was bearable, a little worse than getting a tattoo. The lady who did it was very understanding and very gentle.
After treatment lots of hair just fell off! And the skin in the area where they fell off is very smooth now, like baby skin.
The woman told me that it takes from 4 to 6 treatments to completely get rid of all hair permanently; there are approximately 5-6 weeks between each treatment. They charged me $265 per treatment. I live in Boca Raton, Florida.
I am happy so far and planning to do brazilian laser hair removal soon, too. It cost more expensive though, $370 per treatment so I need to start saving some money!
Go for it, the only thing that I suggest is to check that the person who perfoms laser hair removal has license to do that, and then you will be fine!
Good luck!
Hair removal creams like that are very harsh and are no good for people with sensitive skin. I can't use them at all. If think you have even slightly sensitive skin, I wouldn't suggest using them. Your bumps will go away within a few days and scarring is very unlikely. If they are really bothering you, try using an oatmeal bath. It will sooth your skin and speed up the healing process.
ok i'm a teen but i'll give u mii insite
nair (a hair removeing creme)is good for the bikini area u should never shave it b/c u get red itchy bumps..ur hair down there isn't like other hair

I like to use a process called Persian Waxing or Sugaring. It uses all natural ingredients that you can easily cook yourself (so there should be no skin irritation and nothing detrimental to acne), and has no chance of burning like hot wax does. It's easy, cheap, and should eventually make your hair grow back increasingly thinner.
While you can google different recipes, I use the following:
2 cups white sugar
1/4 cup water
1/2 cup lemon juice
Boil the mixture in a saucepan for about 15-20 minutes, or until it looks amber-colored. Don't be afraid to take it off too early. You can always re-heat it in the microwave if it's too thin. Pour a thin layer of the mixture into a shallow bowl to cool off. Wait until it's almost room temperature, just slightly warm to the touch.
Pick up a small amount and roll it around like a ball between your fingers. It should be slightly sticky but still roll up easily, if it just sticks to your fingers or oozes off, it's too soft. If it's too soft, put it in the microwave for about 30 seconds, let it cool, and test it again, but don't put the sugar in the microwave for more than 30-45 seconds, or it might burn and be ruined.
Squish the ball down onto the area you want to wax and (this is the important part) smooth it out OPPOSITE the direction of hair growth!! Apply slight pressure and keep smoothing the same direction 2-3 times. Did it hurt a little? Then you probably did it right.
With your other hand, pull the skin taut. Grab the edge of the squished ball, and pull it in the direction of hair growth. It might take you one or two pulls to get the sugar off, but if it just stretches apart and doesn't take any hair off your sugar is too soft and needs to be cooked more.
Roll the sugar you just used back into a ball and do the same thing in a different area. If the sugar ball starts getting too soft or sticky from the warmth of your hands, just toss it aside and make a new ball. You can go back to the old one once it hardens if you want.
Be sure to shower before you wax to ensure that the wax sticks as well as possible. Though it varies from person to person, results typically last about 4-6 weeks for me.
There are some commercial products to remove dye from hair, and a few home potions and processes.

Home remedies include this one:
Hot Oil treatments, hairspray, shampooing and exposure to water will gradually fade hair dye.
To remove the last bit of residue or stain on the hair (or to get color out immediately) make up a small batch of bleach mixture and add it to 2 tablespoons or so of shampoo in a cup. Stir it up.
Shampoo your hair with this mixture, "kneading" the hair. Start at the roots and work your way down to the end, and then back up.
You should see the color disappear right before your eyes.
