UNWANTED HAIR... Uhhhhh!!!

i have told my friend last night that i would write something about unwanted hair..

if you are not a hairy person like me (my hair grow healthily at all the wrong places), you might want to skip this totally.. but if you are a hairy person..  i know this topic is something that u really wanted to explore more..

the hair I'm referring to is other than the hair that grow on your head.. you should know that by now... women who have a little more testosterone than its normal acceptable amount will have this problem for sure..Just like me..and the problem is even more crucial when i had a hysterectomy 2 years ago. (and left me with one ovary which is the main factory for estrogen) and imbalance of female hormone.. and i have to live on pills.. like evening primrose oil, all the JAMU (the Indonesian herbs pills), collagen, soy extract.. etc etc just to maintain a balance hormone composition.. and it is all COSTLY!!!

GETTING rid of hair.. i've used some methods..
A. SHAVING

good for quickie and ASAP situation
only shave on your
1.legs
2.underarms
3.eye brow (ask professional to do it!!! please!)
4.and the traingle - u know where

NEVER shave your upper lips and any other parts that is hairy

good thing - the hair disappear, your legs are clean shaven but in my case the 1st sight of hair appear 6 hours later.. NO KIDDING! that is why i say - only good during emergency! at least spare this in your toiletries bag..

(BY THE WAY THIS INFO IS APPLICABLE FOR WOMAN ONLY!)

B. Dilapidating cream eg: VEET.. (hubby wished that the service issue this thing FOC for all serviceman!) price at rm17+ at major pharmacies.. :)
this one works wonders!! if you only have the time and could stand the smear and mess..
it says at the tube do not leave more than 3 minutes but i normally leave it for 20minutes, use the spatula to remove the cream.. and walla!! all clean and clear!!! i love this cream.. designated for the hard to reach area.. u know where.. the tube says do not use it there but i use it anyway!! and loving it since the very 1st use!!

VEET
where to use it
1.the triangle area
2.upper lips (3 minutes is OK!)
3.legs

not to use
underarm - the skin is very thin and it will hurt you so badly! trust me!!

BEWARE OF DANGER:
NEVER USE VEET AT THE SAME PLACE TWICE REPEATEDLY (i did that because I tot i wanted to get rid of the remaining hair BURNT MY SKIN! IT WAS SO PAINFUL!!!!)
use it only after 24 hours or more!!!

C. TWEEZER
erm... one of my friend use it there.. yerp one by one.. don't ask me how but she did it.. and i'm still amazed! and i use it at my upper body part.. here and there.. its too embarassing to share with the world the amount of hair and its location i actually have so i dont think i want to be so direct.. :p

tweezer is good to get rid of ugly eye brows..

D. WAXING STRIPS it cost around rm17 a box from major pharmacies
i love this if somebody else do it for me.. it is sticky and messy and a lot of hassle
use it everywhere... but dont leave it too long when u use it in the underarm area..
i had a moment when, my sister put a wax strip on my left underarm and she went to talk to her boyfriend for half an hour and my skin was turning red and all itchy and left me with a burn mark later.. Thank God it heals back to normal.. i've yet to try Brazillian waxing.. cost around RM130.. i've waxed my legs for rm65 and upper lips for rm15 somewhere in Gurney Plaza Penang.. and i told them i would want to try their Brazillian waxing.. some people like it.. some people coudnt stand the pain.. well, i will definitely share with you how the actual feeling is when i'm ready.. :p

where to use waxing strips
1. legs
2. bikini line
3. under arms
4. upper lips



E. EPILATOR
I FALL IN LOVE WITH THIS MACHINE after my friend reccomended this to me and i never have to use all of the above again i bought it at RM169 from Guardian... ! except for "VEET"ing my upper lips ans my neither region.. (well the pain is quite unbearrable for those area mentioned!)

i epilate my legs every week or every fortnight now.. clean and clear.. i LOVE it so much!!! it is painful, it is not like waxing where the hair is being pulled simultaneosly, this one the hair is being pulled rather individually or a few strands at a time.. ouch factor is.. OUCH!!!

the bad thing about this epilator machine is it is an electricalk device with long wires.. i really hope that they will come out with a abttery operated type.. with both shaving and epilating blades.. (they have both heads but i bought the single one!!!)

where to use this epilator
1. legs
2. under arms
3. bikini line
4. toe hairs

not reccomended to use at
1.upper lips
2.brow area
3. tits area

ingrown hair is expected... but keep brushing your legs with a coarse brush when you take a bath.. it will help with the ingrown hair.. :)

F. LASER
this is permanent.. and is very costly!!
for the triangle it cost around RM7000 (yes seven thousand) and you have to go there a few times stripiing to the professionals..

for the under arms it cost around RM4K..

one of my rich God sister showed me her bills.. she purposely showed it to me because she said it was so EXPENSIVE!! her whole month salary.. (well she was getting around 8K per month!)
so if you have the extra cash.. go for this one.. and it is permanent, but somehow if you happened to meet a spouse that wants u to have hair hear and there.. u are in trouble... because you have to think of getting a hair implant!! :p

well honey.. i think this is what i've got to share about getting rid with those unwanted hair.. so try it all.. to a clean and clear unwanted hair free days ahead!!!
