Dealing with unwanted body hair is a pain. I have tried, plucking, shaving, waxing, and epilating. For those who don't know, epilating is sort of like waxing but it is done with a handheld epilator that is much like an electric shaver, except that the epilator rips out the hairs along with the roots. Ouch!
Since shaving is time-consuming and doesn't give lasting results, waxing is painful and messy, epilating is painful, and professional laser treatments are expensive, the handsome husband bought me an at home treatment a few years back. He picked out the Silk'n SensEpil, which is a more permanent hair removal system that uses light pulses to destroy the hair follicle.
I think the SensEpil works really well and I am happy to report that I grow very little hair on my body. The downfall of the SensEpil is that it requires refill cartridges that are spendy and wasteful. Silk'n now offers newer products that do not require refill cartridges, so if you are looking to buy one, spend the money to get one that will last forever. They didn't have that option when I got mine and I might upgrade at some point so that I can finish obliterating any remaining hair follicles.
I think an at home treatment for permanent hair removal is a great solution against the war on hair. I think in the long run, it is cheaper and much less wasteful than many other options that are not permanent.
