Temporary hair removers are a quick way to take care of body hair, although continual maintenance will be necessary to keep the desired look. Some temporary hair removal solutions remove hair for a longer period of time than others. Each solution comes with its own benefits and downsides. Depending on the body part and the desired look, it might be best to use different body hair removals.

There are two types of temporary hair removal:

  1. Epilation is removing entire hair from the root lasting day or weeks. This can include the use of tweezers to pluck the hair out. Tweezing is only recommend for a small area of unwanted facial hair as it is somewhat painful and time consuming. Waxing is also an option. You apply a hot or cold wax to the area of hair to be removed, lay a cloth strip over the wax and then pull the strip off which removes the hair as well. There are also many different rotary epilators available for purchase. Also called a rotary coil, this electric device grabs the hair and pulls it from the root.
  2. Depilation - removes hair at the skin level lasting hours to days. This includes shaving both manual or electric and is the most common form of facial hair remover for a man. You can also use a depilatory, which is a chemical that is to alter the structure of the hair for easy removal. Depilatories come in many forms such as gels, creams, lotions and roll on. Both methods are inexpensive and available at most retail stores.

Facial hair removal can range from quick and easy to expensive and painful. The method you choose should best fit your individual needs. You can get rid of that facial hair, the hard part is going to be deciding on what method works for you.
