Struggling with body hair can is an overwhelming daily to-do task that practically no one has the time for, nor the will to deal with.

Experienced dermatologists claim that not every hair-removal method is suitable for every skin type, meaning that what works for one person does not necessarily work for another. For example, people with dark, dry skin and curly, thin hair are better off with laser hair-removal, as one of the most popular treatments of the modern day. On the other hand, men and women with finer hair and thin skin are recommended to practice waxing and shaving, as the two most suitable solutions for their particular skin type.

If this is a matter that personally touches you and you want information, continue reading. Explaining the actual and most promising hair-removal treatments is what is coming next. Enjoy!

1. Shaving

Obviously, this is the fastest and the easiest option to get rid of body hair you do not like nor need on you. And although it is considered the ideal every-woman option, still this is not a permanent solution. Instead, shaving requires getting back to the razor only few days after the last ‘shaving session’. Dermatologists recommend using multi-blade razors in a combination with a special shaving gel to get the most out of results while avoiding skin irritations. This is in fact a common misconception – what actually leads to skin irritation is the wrong razor choice.

2. Waxing

Well, this is again a non-permanent hair-removal option, but the effects last definitely much longer than the effects of shaving. If you have thin skin, fine hair and are comfortable to deal with your body hair once a month, then waxing is the method that will probably work best for you. Today, you can easily get this treatment in any beauty salon. For best results, wax every four to five weeks.

3. Laser Hair Removal

It is usually referred to as ‘nearly permanent, but very costly body-hair removing treatment’. If removing the body fuzz once and for all, is at the top of your list of priorities, laser hair removal is one of the options to consider. Normally, this treatment requires the use of an ultraviolet light that is directly applied onto the skin, killing the hair follicles that actually give birth to the hair once taken out of the skin. But, to get the maximum results, multiple sessions are required, which will definitely cost you much more than just a regular waxing.

4. Microdermabrasion

Microdermabrasion is one of the recent ‘products’ of the modern aesthetic medicine that is usually seen as a treatment for cleaning the skin from stubborn acne or broken veins and wrinkles. But, to your surprise, microdermabrasion can also be an exceptionally effective method to remove the hair off your body. Wondering how? It is all about applying special microcrystals, so-called ‘diamonds’ that remove the dead skin cells, which actually remove the body hair as well. Although microdermabrasion is one of the defuzzing strategies not very familiar to the audience, it is rapidly building its ranking as the best one, due to the fact that it is a non-invasive, non-chemical and an affordable treatment.
