Removing unwanted body or facial hair has evolved into a key part of grooming and self-care. Whether for comfort, aesthetics or cultural reasons, many people explore different methods—from shredding hairs at the surface to targeting the follicle. Yet, each technique comes with trade-offs in convenience, cost, speed and side-effects. An expert overview reveals how to pick wisely.
Method by method: How they compare
Shaving
This remains the most accessible route. It cuts hair at the skin surface using a razor, often done at home. Experts say it’s pain-free for most, but regrowth is rapid and frequent maintenance is required.
Pros: inexpensive, quick, easy
Cons: Hair grows back in days; risk of razor burn, cuts or ingrown hairs
Waxing
Waxing removes hair from the root by applying a sticky wax that is pulled off, carrying hair out. The results last longer than shaving — often weeks — but can be painful and require hair of a minimum length.
Pros: longer smoothness; potential hair density reduction over time
Cons: discomfort; possible skin redness, ingrown hairs; more expensive than shaving
Laser / IPL / High-tech treatments
Lasers (and IPL/SHR technologies) target the hair follicle with light or heat, aiming to reduce regrowth significantly over time. These methods are investment-heavy but can deliver longer-term results.
Pros: longer-lasting outcomes; fewer sessions over time; good for hair-reduction
Cons: higher cost; multiple sessions needed; best suited for certain hair/skin types
Expert tips: what dermatologists recommend
According to board-certified dermatologists:
-
There is no one “best” method for everyone—the ideal choice depends on hair type, skin sensitivity, budget and how long you want smoothness to last.
-
For those with frequent ingrown hairs or allergic reactions to waxing or creams, laser hair-reduction may be preferable.
-
Before adopting creams or at-home methods, a patch test is crucial to avoid irritation or allergic responses.
