I am light skinned with dark hair from my head to my toes, what should I do?

Question

I have hair on every part of my body, facial hair, nose hair, back hair, chest hair, tummy hair, hairy legs and arms. Shaving is time consuming and leaves ingrown hairs in some places. I heard that laser can be dangerous. What can I do?

Answer 1

well..wax the areas u think are safe to do so..

and seek a dermatologist! he/she might have some good advises for you...

there are gels available nowadays to stop hair growth in certain parts..

Good lcuk!

Answer 2

You should research laser hair removal.  Most reputable salons that offer it will do a free consultation to talk about your fears, cost, and show you anything you want.  It is a little costly, but it's permanent, so you won't have to worry about the hair growing back.

You're other options include shaving, hair removal creams (nair, veet) or waxing.  All of these options are time consuming and sometimes painful and although cheaper in the beginning the price does add up.

Hope I helped.

Answer 3

wax; or use this cream/lotion called Nair*

its a hair removal lotion; put it on; wait to the time givin [normally 5-10min.z, on some] then just wash off

Answer 4

Stop taking the testosterone tablets. No, seriously, go and get your hormone levels checked.

Answer 5

Join the circus

Answer 6

wax or use an epilator on your legs and dont try to get rid of the hair on the rest of your body - if you do it will just grow back thicker and darker, and besides its normal to have hair on places like your arms

apart from your legs id suggest that you bleached the hair, so its less noticable

Answer 7

Laser hair removal, in addition to the possibility of scarring, is also fairly expensive; but if the problem is that bad--well, it might be worth it to you. It's also important to note that laser hair removal is not a permanent fix. Usually the hair will eventually grow back.

A combination of waxing and bleaching might be the more cost-sensible option. You should probably consult a doctor to make a more informed decision.

Answer 8

I recoomend to use nair our veet

Answer 9

you can use nair.. but i wouldnt  look into self removing the hair.. it would cause it to grow back courser .   I get laser ( not for hair tho, so i dont know it its the same thing)   and i never found it dangerous.   It would damage the hair follicle  so that hair would no longer grow back.  although laser is very painful imo, its a easy solution to make your hair complately  gone forever!  IF your under 18  it should be covered my insurance ( it is here anyways)  but if not it may be a little costly.  

Answer 10

shave  who cares if you are a gye and shave( if you are a gye)..... you can be a living freakshow

Answer 11

try beauty treatments.

for the face there are special facial waxing or epil (where the hair is tweezed out with a tweezer that has a light electrical current running through it) I get these done on my upper cheeks but haven't done so in a year now as it was a bit expensive (the epil) and as I was not regular there was not much difference. but you can try and do regular and see.

waxing/sugaring is also a way to get rid of hair can be be time consuming and expensive in the long run.

You can have tests done to see if your skin can tolerate the laser but the down sides are one off expense and that a number of treatments maybe needed. you need to research this area as many claim its permanent whereas others say it is not proven.

I don't know your gender but I'm a male and I am hairy but comfortable to some extent with it cause I am a bloke. but speak to a beauty therapist who can help but be prepared to pay for the privilege.

good luck

Answer 12

Leave it alone! I'm as hairy, though my hair is ginger. I maintain a short full beard/stubble and don't touch the hair on my body. It doesn't give me any trouble. I don't care if people think I'm a yeti. Maybe I am. Actually, I've been on TV several times on programs discussing hairiness. I used to maintain a web page called the "Hairy Human Homepage" but I discontinued it when I changed ISP. Perhaps one day I'll put it back on-line.

Answer 13

what is it that makes you hate dark hair?, thats like saying you hate your skin and want some one to rip it off.

if you get that much laser treatment to remove every hair , you'll die from radiation exposure.

I suggest for you to suk it up, live with it, and accept who your are.  

Answer 14

Bleach for body hair, specially for face, chest, tummy and back, also a pumice stone will do wonders just make sure you don't rub too hard do it very softly when you take a shower. Use soap lather up and rub the pumice stone in circular motions, make sure you do it softly though! u can use that on any part of your body it makes the hair thinner and lighter every time you use it. Another thing is a epilator, it's one of those machines that you can charge or just plug in, looks like it has a lot of tweezers inside, that you can use for your legs and underarms it hurts a little bit at first but then you get used to it, it takes out the hair from the root so that it wont grow back fast and it will even make some hair not grow back. I don't know about using it on the face or any other areas that are too sensitive but you can try it out.

I hope this helps. :)
