Women know how bothersome hair at unwanted places could be. Upper lip, chin, legs, and hands are a few of the places where hair growth of hair is unwanted by women and therefore have the desire to remove the hair in those areas. Some Men too feel the need to remove hair from their back and chest region. Several scams thrive on this insecurity of women. Before rushing ahead with any hasty decision to remove hair one should do a little research and find out what really works. The results of the use of the products/methods are uncertain: Electric tweezer, transdermal, transcutaneous, photoepilators, microwaves, dietary products and Herbal inhibitors. For example, though it's claimed that electric tweezers remove hair permanently there is no scientific evidence to back this up.

Electrolysis, homo electro, laser and Flash lamp/IPL are the methods that can remove hair permanently if performed properly. However, if not done correctly then each of these methods can have bad effects. For instance, an improper electrolysis for hair removal can cause partial or complete regrowth, lasting skin damage and skin infection. Therefore, it's always advisable to get as much information as possible before opting for any method or hair removal.

There are a number of temporary hair removal methods like: shaving, depilatories, friction, tweezing, waxing, sugaring, threading and rotary epilators.

If growing

hair where it should not be is a bothersome problem, equally worrisome is losing hair from where it should stay. A baldpate is more of a man's problem, though some female lose hair that is noticeably also. There is still no sure-fire cure for this problem. But still there is hope to get back some of the crowning glory. Propecia pills and Rogaine hair tonic are the two FDA approved medicines that may help to grow back hair. But both have side effects. In case of Propecia it may range from reduced sexual interest to birth defects in a male baby (if a pregnant mother uses propecia tablets). Hair transplant is also a quick solution to regrow hair. It's not advisable to use any of the hair gain products mentioned here without a doctor's advice.
