Now that we are in 2010, you would think that there would be more than a couple of new ways to remove unwanted hair. After all scientists have got us to the moon. You would not think it was too much to ask to find some outstanding permanent hair removal methods. But apparently it is. Perhaps those scientists are just not focusing on things which really matter to our everyday lives.
Anyway, just to round up on the latest, here are the best hair removal techniques in 2010. There are probably some things which are new to you, especially if you have just started doing something about excess hair or have not refreshed your methods of hair removal for a year or two.
Facial Hair Removal Methods
The best way of removing facial hair permanently is still by electrolysis and this has been around for years. What you may not know is you can buy an electrolysis kit for home use, although it has to be said the One Touch electrolysis machine (which is the best of the home electrolysis systems) takes a little getting used to and you should practice on other parts of your body before tackling your face. As for temporary methods, threading has become fashionable as a salon treatment for removing hair from your face in recent years. If you just want a quick tool for getting rid of facial hair at home take a look at the REM spring facial hair remover which is a nifty little gadget for removing hair quickly similar to threading (but easier to do yourself).
Body Hair Removal Methods
The laser hair removal methods come into their own for getting rid of body hair. Nothing comes close to them in terms of speed of operation and being able to treat large areas in one go. Although you won’t necessarily get permanent removal of all the hair, you should get enough of a permanent reduction to be happy with the treatment. You will also find that techniques and machines have improved in recent years, so much so that success rates are higher than they used to be. Also, you’ll find home laser hair removal machines on the market which you may not have been aware of before. These are not as effective as the machines in clinics but the best machines do work over time (and the costs are far lower than for professional laser hair treatment).
Leg Hair Removal MethodsEpilators have been around for a while however there are major innovations in pain relief. A lot of work by manufacturers of these products has gone into reducing the discomfort with this hair removal method. The best of these techniques seems to be the inclusion of a massage element which soothes the skin as you go. For example, the Braun Silk Epil pictured has “4-way moving massaging rollers stimulate skin with micro pulses before and after hair is removed to minimize pulling sensation”.
Bikini Hair Removal Methods
There is no fundamental change in the hair removing methods for the bikini line, but you will find that, as the years have gone by, all salons and clinics are now well practiced in the techniques and so you should have an easier time of it. If you had turned up at a salon twenty years ago for bikini line waxing, chances are you would have been made to feel awkward and the beauty therapist would have been struggling a bit. Not so any more. You can expect to feel at ease and the whole operation will be carried out smoothly and quickly.
