Hi curlywirly,

I believe you have 3 choices

Waxing is something that is done a number of times--it's not a one-time deal.

You could save up and get laser treatments and that claims to be permanant. But you have to go a number of times and I think it is approx 300-500. Do some internet searching in your area for "laser hair removal" and you can call in and get a free consultation and they can help you make an educated decision.

Lastly, if you don't feel that it is too hairy, but just shows up b/c it is dark, you could get the hair bleached. Some people do it themselves, or have a friend help. Others get it done at a spa/salon.

goodluck

I have also seen electric back shavers (basically a regular electric shaver with a really long handle for reaching). Search online and I'm sure you'll see one. It's a cheap and pretty painless alternative.
