Waxing is the most common method of hair removal today. Hair on any part of the body or face can be waxed. Warm wax is applied to the area and then removed, bringing the hair with it. Waxing reduces hair growth when performed at regular intervals (depending on your hair cycle can be anywhere from 2-6 weeks). Waxing pulls the hair out by the root, it grows back softer, finer, and thinner. The more you wax, the less hair grows back, and less often it has to be done.
