5. Why not use temporary methods?
One should exercise caution when selecting a temporary method of hair removal. Most temporary methods irritate the skin and may increase the
likelihood of ingrown hairs and scarring. In addition to constant maintenance, you will not achieve the look you want permanently. Some even compound the
problem instead of reducing overall hair growth.
