Whenever i shave the hair starts growing back in about 6 hours aaaand you can feel it and its gross! How can i make it not come back and how do you keep a tan? Does shaving cause it to go away faster? thanks

The waxing idea is great, but it's kinda expensive and I've actually found that the hair comes back pretty quickly even when I wax. As for keeping a tan, you can forget it with a wax as it takes off the first layer of skin cells (and therefore your tan). The best way I've found is to epillate. An epillator is a small hand-held machine that looks and sounds like an electric razor, but instead of cutting off the hairs it pulls them out, like loads of little tweezers all over your leg. I know it sounds horrible, and it has got a terrible reputation, but it's by far the cheapest, most effective way to get them out. It has the same effect as waxing (longer period of time without hair growing back, gradual thinning of hair growth the more you do it) but it's free once you've bought the epillator and it won't take off your tan! The 'pain' is totally exaggerated as well; honestly, you get used to the sensation within a minute and after that it just feels like tiny, quick little pin pricks. You can pick up an epillator at any good healthcare or beauty store (eg Boots/Superdrug if you live in Britain). Hope that helps! x [ hebe's advice column | Ask hebe A Question ]

It costs a lot but it gets rid of the dark hairs and leaves the really lights ones you cant see. Well.... when I wax my leg the tan I got fades a little but then I just go swimming and stuff like that and then I comes back lol. Hope I helped! :) [ rosie2999's advice column | Ask rosie2999 A Question ]
