Title: Hair Removal?
Post by: missmatilyn on August 25, 2006, 11:16:42 AM
Hello everyone, i've been doing some research on hair removal and i was just wondering if any of there is any product that works, i've seen many online that "garuntee" results but before going and spending money on anything i'd like to know if anyone at all has purchased any, and if so..Do they work?
Maybe not..i dk maybe electolisys (sry for the spelling) or laser hair removal is the only true way..If that's the case, any opinions on what is best?

Thanks alot for your reply's, They're all greatly apperciated :)

I assume you mean permanent, not temporary hair removal?

The only two I know of are Vaniqa (prescription cream to reduce unwanted hair - though you must continue using it forever) and the home use "OneTouch" electrolysis units. I'm not sure if OneTouch is available anymore though.

The hair removal https://www.susans.org/forums/index.php/board,81.0.html (https://www.susans.org/forums/index.php/board,81.0.html) section has some great threads on this.

Hi Matilyn,

If you want permenant hair removal, don't even bother with creams or anything you may see on the web. Electrolysis or Laser are your only options.

Hello Missmatilyn:

If you want PERMANENT hair removal, your best option will be electrolysis.  It is painful, expensive and costly but it is permanent.


Just make sure that if you want to remove hair forever, you need to choose a PERMANENT option rather than a LONG TERM ONE. ;)
