subject: Hair Removal - Waxing [print this page] When it comes to removing unwanted and unsightly hair, waxing is one of the more popular hair removal choices.
Hair waxing has many benefits and can be used on all parts of the body such as arms, legs, eyebrows, bikini line and back for quick and easy hair removal. Because body waxing removes the hair from the root, results can last up to 8 weeks. For many, with the ongoing treatment of waxing, permanent hair removal can be achieved.
