Good ol' tweezers most the time. I don't get too much hair though so I find it most manageable with that method. x

Just tweezers for me. I don't dare shave, but thank goodness my hair isn't bad enough to shave. Waxing makes is worse so I don't bother with it.

I have tried the hot wax in microave & the cold wax liked Hot wax much btter. I use Razors too & the slower Hair growth lotions. Currently using everything from Avon but I here jergns and Aveeno have a great one. Oh & dr. Brommer's 18 in 1 magic soap Is really helping slow the growth & the texture (thining it out) of the New growth & I use it for shampoo & I have New hair short guys coming up & no more Hair falling out So wierd how it is helping both problems. I love it though I just use a little on some exfolliating gloves & stand out of the water & scrub leave for a few minutes & voila a whole New smooth Me.

I get one or two hairs on my chin a week that I just tweeze. I also spend a good amount of time tweezing belly/chest hair and shave my legs/pits...I don't mean to hijack this post but, I am having a TERRIBLE time with shaving my legs...the hair grows back SO fast and is SO itchy it feels like a mans beard when its growing. I also get terrible bumps not right after I shave but within 24 hours...i guess the hair growing back maybe? Does anyone else experience this? what do you do?

I epilate. I love my electric epilator, don't know what I'd do with out it. It does smart a tiny bit, but it is sooooo worth the results!

I mostly shave. I do use wax on my eyebrows, though. For some reason it works fine for me there but I can't handle it anywhere else.
