Waxing and plucking are essentially the same thing, ripping the hair out by its root. Thing is there are sometimes up to three hairs in a follicle and one or two of them might be asleep so the hairs you see growing back are probably not the ones you pulled out. I believe it takes 4-6 weeks for plucked/waxed hairs to regrow.
