If you’re interested in removal of body hair, consider the pros and cons of hair waxing. Waxing can be done in a salon, or, after some practice, by yourself at home. The treatments range in price from $10 to $75, and last for up to three weeks. Although rumored to be painful, when done with good technique and followed up with a soothing gel application, the pain is minimal. The result is smooth, hair-free skin that looks great when you wear summer fashions and skimpy beachwear. Although not as permanent as laser hair removal, waxing costs less and is suitable for people with all skin types and hair colors.
