"Today we're going to discuss how to remove unwanted hair at your home. And there are a couple of options for this. The one that I highly recommend is waxing. Waxing is something that is not permanent; however, can be done quite effectively, especially if you're just dealing with facial hair. It's something that you would apply on to the skin with the hair growth, and you would lay some waxing cloth over the wax and remove it against the hair growth. And it's kind of like ripping off a band aid really fast, when you have a little kid who just doesn't want to feel it for long. So that's kind of the best description for that. The second method at home, which can be used on your legs, is, or other parts of the body, but probably not so much on your face, would be to use a depilatory chemical lotion. And what this would do would kind of burn the hair off just below the surface of the skin. It's going to give you a, you know, up to a weeks worth of removal for the hair. You would apply the lotion on the skin and then you would have to wait, sometimes up to a half an hour, and then remove the lotion and the hair would come off at the same time. Again, that would have to be repeated once a week. And then the third method that you could use at home is they are now selling, and you can just kind of go to your local beauty supply store, maybe look up online, kits at home where you can do home electrolysis. Now, if it's in an area where you're not really able to see or get close to, it might not work for you, but the home electrolysis kit might work well for in the mirror if you're just doing like the lip area, maybe a little bit around the eyebrow. These would be an option for that. So this is how you would remove hair at home."
