Try one of these at-home methods of hair removal:
Author:Lauren HubbardUpdated:Oct 16, 2018Original:Mar 30, 2017Ah, it's that time of year. The birds are singing, flowers are blooming, New Yorkers are wearing short sleeves even though it's only 50 degrees out.
For the closest razor shave, director of cosmetic and clinical research in dermatology at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City Joshua Zeichner recommends only shaving after the hair has had a chance to soften, like after a warm shower, and always using a shaving gel or oil to lubricate the skin.
Pulling hair out at the root means a longer period of silky-smoothness, which can make it a good choice for the maintenance averse, but just as with tweezing, expect a pretty steady level of small, stinging pains. Though it's slower than waxing, the design makes them more effective at grabbing the thin, fine hairs that tend to escape wax sessions and allows you to get rid of hair more quickly than trying to pluck individually.
"Depilatory creams essentially destroy the bonds that hold together the hair strands themselves," says Zeichner. They also have a far more minor reaction on the skin itself, working similarly to a chemical exfoliant, which can be helpful for those who are prone to ingrown hairs. If melting down your body hair sounds vaguely terrifying in a sci-fi kind of way, don't worry, depilatory creams are generally very safe.
The good news is that when it comes to long-lasting, completely hairless results, wax is queen. It's effective on nearly any area of the body, works well for most skin types, lasts for weeks and can be pulled off at home with minimal fuss.
