Hair removal with a machine
The simplest and, perhaps, the cheapest method is to remove excess hairs. The disadvantage of the method is that it removes only the upper part of the hair. While the follicle (root) remains intact. As a result, a new hair grows in a couple of days, but it is already harder and darker, which causes some discomfort.
