Permanent Hair Removal at Home

How feasible is permanent hair removal at home?

Well, it is becoming a lot easier than it used to be even a few years ago.

Of course, we would all love to remove hair and have it disappear for good with one little treatment – an application of depilatory cream or a quick waxing session – but that isn’t going to happen anytime soon. There are really only two methods of permanent hair removal and each of them requires more than one session to get rid of hair for good – but they are worth it in the end.

Two Methods to Choose From

To remove hair permanently you can use either electrolysis or laser hair removal. It used to be that each of these had to be performed in a registered salon by trained operators but now there is hair removal equipment which you can buy and use at home which has been approved by the FDA for each of these procedures.

Having looked at all the equipment out there, two home hair removal systems seem to have the edge over the others in terms of being effective and easy to use.

Laser Hair Removal

Silkn Hair Removal System

The Silkn hair removal machine is a system which has been clinically proven for long term hair removal by physicians and has been approved by the FDA for safe use in the home. It is costly to buy the machine but it will save you money compared to professional laser treatment or even waxing or shaving over the long term and of course you get all the convenience of removing hair in the privacy of your own home.

Electrolysis

The One Touch electrolysis hair removal system is a portable system that works if you have a bit of patience and use care in operation. Start off at a low setting when using this electrolysis machine until you get used to the product and remain at a moderate setting throughout for best results. It has a very low cost compared to the Silkn and you will find that your costs are covered by even one or two electrolysis treatments at a salon. You can use it to treat hair almost anywhere on your body and face. To see what buyers have to say and the latest prices click here.

Of the two the One Touch takes more skill to operate but after practicing on your arms or legs you could use it with great care on your face. It takes longer to treat each section of hair than the Silkn system but it is likely to result in permanent hair removal faster than a laser hair removal system if you have the patience to work on each hair one at a time.

The Silk’n laser hair removal system comes into its own if you want to treat large areas of your body such as chest, arms or legs as you can treat a lot of hair in a short amount of time. Unfortunately you should not buy this is your aim is for permanent facial hair removal because it may not be used on your face.

I have to warn you that some people are disappointed when they try these hair removal machines. I think it’s a case of false expectations as they do work effectively – but they take time to work. If you want to achieve permanent hair removal remember that it will take a bit of time to build up your skill levels in using theses machines and that you have to treat each hair at the right stage in its growth phase before the hair follicle is permanently destroyed so it may take a few sessions to destroy each hair.

If you are motivated however and take the time to use the equipment properly you will achieve permanent hair removal at home and that is a fantastic move forward for many with unwanted hair problems.

Home Electrolysis Hair Removal

It sounds brilliant doesn’t it? At home electrolysis hair removal – the means to deal with your unwanted hair in the calm and privacy of your own home without making appointments or shelling out huge amounts for professional treatments. What could be better?

I have to admit the idea has a lot going for it. It’s just that if you have the cash I think it’s still probably best to put yourself in the hands of the experts who have trained long and hard to effectively treat your unwanted hair as quickly as possible.

I know, I know. You don’t have the cash for professional electrolysis services (or it’s difficult for you to get to appointments due to other commitments) and you’re desperate for a solution. If that’s the case then a low-cost home electrolysis machine might just suit you provided you are willing to spend time getting to know the machine and your skin and hair with lots of practice. After all if you were going to practice electrolysis on others you would need a long training course and could not set up in business overnight.

Many people expect to buy a system such as the One Touch home electrolysis machine (the best of the home electrolysis kits on the market) and be able to whisk away their excess hair overnight. They complain in reviews that they did not get the results that they were hoping for and that the electrolysis kit they purchased was a waste of money.

You won’t get instant success with any home electrolysis system I’m afraid (and would not get results like that even if you had professional electrolysis). Unwanted hair is not so happy to be done away with and has some determination to stick around. So you have to be just as determined to deal with each and every hair to get rid of it for good.

To succeed you have to

a) put the probe into the hair follicle at the right place
b) give it a strong enough current to kill it
c) catch it at the right time

Even trained electrologists need to treat hairs several times to get them at just the right point so it’s important not to give up too soon. If you believe you have the patience to succeed take a look at our One Touch review which will give you an idea about whether this (or indeed any other home electrolysis hair removal) is right for you or not.
