Having unwanted hair on your arms, upper lip, or other area can be annoying. Having hair professionally removed with lasers can be expensive, and harsh home chemicals can leave your skin irritated and raw. Luckily there are many home or natural remedies you can try to remove unwanted hair safely and effectively. Here are some natural hair removal techniques you can try.

Papaya 

When you mash fresh papaya you get a papain-infused concoction that can work wonders in removing hair potentially permanently over time. Papain is an enzyme present in papaya, and its usefulness on hair removal is beneficial: when applied to hair regularly, it gets into the follicles and weakens them. This makes original hair removal much easier and can actually block hair from returning for good. Apply this mixture to areas you want to remove hair on and you will see results within a few weeks.

Tumeric

A potent antibacterial herbal root that you can find in many Oriental stores and produce markets, tumeric is known for its ability to slow hair growth when applied to the skin. If you shave regularly, you will want to apply shaved tumeric to your legs, underarms, and other areas in between shavings to keep hair from growing back as quickly. You can mix tumeric with papaya pulp if desired to speed hair removal results.

Egg and cornstarch mask

For smaller problem areas like the lip or armpit, you may want to stick to a traditional wax using natural ingredients. Egg mixed with cornstarch provides a thick mask that, when dried, can be peeled off to remove unwanted hair. The rich fatty acids present in eggs help to nourish and plump the skin affected, leaving you with a youthful, radiant glow sans hair. Do this treatment whenever you want to get rid of fuzz, using just enough cornstarch in your egg mixture to create a paste that will stick.

There are many reasons to try natural remedies to get rid of hair. Some remedies are much cheaper than beauty products, and all of them can potentially reduce irritation to sensitive skin. Natural remedies can work as well as traditional counterparts, although they may take a little extra time to see results. Once you start using a remedy to get rid of your unwanted hair, you will want to stick to it until you have all your hair removed or softened for removal in order to benefit most.
