What makes body hair grow so much? How can you get rid of it? Any experience with body hair and removal?

Laser is not what you may think from adverts, but it is the way you end up clean and smooth.
I am a guy and my Japanese partner wanted to do this. The first results were not very satisfactory, but slowly and finally she is as smooth as if there was never any hair.
Problems: Cost, I paid for it for her and it cost me between $2500 and $3000.
Pain, The advertise "Painless, but after every treatment she told me how much it hurt, and sometimes it left inflamation. The dermatologist did not want to do the most sensative areas because in her experience it hurt too much, but Reichan insisted and that was done too, and it truly was terribly painful.
Visits, I think she went for 9 or more treatments, and they had to be spaced out according the cycle of hair growth. She couldn't miss a treatment. It took over a year.
But I must say, it seems very attractive when it's properly finished, and she is very happy with it. Only if she wears a skirt on a chilly day, she will say she feels it. Of course one can never go back.
Oh, she had it taken from under her arms as well.

Electrolysis. It sends an elexctric current and kills the root so everytime you go back it becomes less and less, as well as thinner and thinner. You hav to get this done professionally, costs about £15 per half hour and it will prob take a good few sessions but you do notice the difference, and its permanent. If you use a hair removal cream or something, it does not kill the root and encourages it to grow so more hair grows back and will be thicker everytime. Same with all hair removal (plucking- for every one you pluck another comes to its funeral! creams, waxing etc) apart from Electrolysis and Laser Hair removal. Sounds like things that will cost loads but they're not too bad, have a look if its something that really bothers you

Why do you want to get rid of it??? Natural hair is so much better looking, and you don't have the hassles, the bumps, and the pain. Hair is in again.

afraid not waxing is meant to make it recede and fizzle out although pain full might be worth a try or try an eppilator (now they are pain full) but i felt worth i only do it now every 8 weeks or more

The more you shave the more it grows. Electrolysis is a good idea... Look into this

there is something called ant oil.....which is said that if you rub it on after you have waxed hair will never grow again
i haven't tested it myself but my sister has....she was so happy with it that she told me to get some....(i dont know where to get it from)

Wait a year or so until being hairy will become fashionable again
