Whats your favourite type of hair removal? What works for you? I just use tweezers and shavers at the moment, but I'm wanting to give waxing a go. I've been a bit scared to try it at home. Treatments I've had waxing and threading before both of them I enjoyed alot. Im watching out for the IPL ladies and keeping an eye out for their progress.

I wax & pluck my face.
Wax my forearms.
Shave my underarms.
Shave my legs mostly but when I can deal with the hair growth & have time I'll wax them.
Wax "other areas"

I shave/epilate my body, tweeze my eyebrows and wax my face. I would love to get laser at some point though!

I am the same Macs, I shave/tweeze and haven't actually had a wax in over a year :/ but I just bought an epilator last week... so far so good :) that top lip though... tears in my eyes no matter what I have done.
Threading has probably the best results but also the most tears in that area (I don't flinch with other areas, only my upper lip).
 
Shave legs/underarms
tweezers for eyebrows and a cream for others, looking for new things to try though

I used to get wax down below then went to a salon for ipl. Best thing I ever did! Now I have the home one that I'm using. Still shave legs and underarms until the ipl vanishes all those unwanted hairs

I forget about my epilator, I got one for Xmas last year but I hate it! Might sell it.

I tear up every time for my upper lip. I haven't had threading and waxing in salon for a while now. Tried the creams but got a bit burned so I stay away from them.

I shave my legs and pluck my eyebrows. Hair removal isn't a big issue for me so I haven't been tempted by any other options.

I wax my face at a salon and pluck and shave and sometimes cream in between times. Shave underarms and legs, and wax elsewhere when I'm up to the pain!

Oh I agree Macs, upper lip is very sensitive. I do the odd bit of plucking there between waxes and it takes some courage!

I'm quite grateful my mo' isn't unruly and so I don't need to wax it :P I was shaving armpits and legs, but now I wax my legs, and I was waxing my armpits but I think I'll go back to shaving. And for the lady jungle I use one of those awful stinky hair creams especially for that area - it's the only thing I've found that doesn't give me ingrown hairs! And I pluck my eyebrows when I can be bothered :D

I shave for my body, pluck my eyebrows and cream for my top lip. Ive used wax strips occasionally in the past but I always end up missing bits so they annoy me.

I shave, except my eyebrows which I pluck and I occassionally use a hair removal cream above my upper lip. I'm also keeping an eye on the IPL and I'm a wimp about waxing.

I either wax or epilate (and tweeze eyebrows) but I have been so so tempted to buy an IPL....still trying to justify it to hubby though ;)

I would love to try the ipl removal but most preferred is waxing. My mum first tooke to a salon for my brow shape and waxing. Then later for leg waxing. I haven't had the full lady garden waxing but the basic bikini trim.
I just wax at home now for my facial hair brows & upper lip. Shave for lower parts from armpits down you get the drift lol. Atm I'm using the Nads facial wand and it's ok but then dispenser part isn't very user friendly and needs modification.

Tweezers and threading on face. Waxing rest of body preferred but known to shave when poor or no time to get in for a wax. I really do need to look at ipl.
