Does waxing hair really keep hair from growing back?

I'm curious, I have a lot of belly hair...and I'm a girl. Its embarassing and hurts my self esteem. Its def keeping me from having a realationship with someone.Does waxing hair really keep hair from growing back?
Waxing when done often enough will traumatize some hair so it will not grow back. Hence the bald patches on waxed legs and bikini area. It will not get rid of all hair though. So the answer is that it is Literally ---partially true!Does waxing hair really keep hair from growing back?
no, i wish it does!





all it does is 1) makes less hair grow back and 2) takes longer for the hair to re-appear/ grow back.





the only thing that will stop hair from growing back is electrolysis - which is a lazer type treatment - but it is very expensive!





Good luck, i know how you feel ;)
Plucking (tweezing), Shaving, Depilatory creams and Waxing are temporary hair removal methods.


Waxing usually lasts for 3 weeks, but it is painful.


Electrolysis and laser hair removal are ';permanent'; hair removal methods but are expensive and you have to find a trained professional, otherwise your skin could be damaged.

Waxing takes longer 2 grow back usually within 1 month just use your razor every day no biggie lol
Waxing hair is not a permanent cure for preventing the growth of hair. But in some cases, regular waxing would reduce the density of hair growth
yes wax it. don't pluck or shave it will grow back worse. Eventually w/waxing hair will be less/lighter and even non existent





neat and nair are not for sensitive skin. ';burns';
omg same here....yes it definately helps eventually...im gunna start waxing my belly now...didnt think of it before...i do my legs though ...nd now after like a year of doing it ...my hair just like pills out with my fingers
no it will grow back yet not as fast as it would if you ahved it.
Waxing just takes the hair away for a period of time. It will grow back. I get my eyebrows done every few weeks. But it takes longer for the hair to grow back with waxing then it did with plucking. If you want a permanent solution try electrolysis. It takes a couple of sessions and will cost a litte but the hair will never grow back.
First of all, I suggest you find a way - whether through counselling or just talking to someone you can trust - to deal with the body image issue. Nothing about you physically should be keeping you from having a relationship.





Waxing is a good option. Hair grows back slower and often thinner, but it does grow back.
No evuntly the hair will grow back. I suggest waxing in the summer when you were swimsuits. The in the winter just leave it. The hair will grow back in about six weeks!
Once you wax it, you are going to wax it forever.. It starts getting thicker and thicker.. If is barely noticeable I would live it alone for now.. Wear a longer shirt and get a boyfriend.. He doesn't have to see you without a shirt for a long time.. Good Luck!!
it grows back, I would not wax it....if anything they sell bleach for ur face hair, that u can use on ur stomach. or u can shave it thats what my mom does and so do i,and u cant tell...just a smooth belly
No it does not keep it from growing back. It will grow back withing 3-8 weeks. The best way to keep your hair removed and permanent basis is to get laser or electrolysis
waxing does not keep the hair from growing back. however, the hair does take longer to grow back because it starts fresh from the root instead of from the skin line as with shaving. however, waxing HURTS like bloody mad!!! if your prob is dark hair, not thick hair, try bleaching. you can buy hair bleaching creams in the same area as waxes. mix up a paste, slather it on, wash off after a few mins. hair will be bleached out blonde/white. lasts much longer than shaving the hair off and at most stings a little, but doesn't hurt like waxing.
it slows the rate of growth. i know it sucks although it could be worse it could be facial.
No it grows back~ Try some NEAT or NARE~
nope it grows back!!
You can wax, it will come back, it can stay gone about 4-6 weeks depends, some hair grows slower that others. It will come back finer and thinner but you can run the risk of ingrown hairs just like anywhere else. I would recomend going to someone rather that do it your self It sucks to getthe wax on there and then not have the nerve to pull it off. I've been there : 0 Also ,it can cause the hair to break off rather than pull out then you can get ingrown hairs. And they are not sexy. You can always bleach or use a product like nair don't go too far down you don't want to burn the um.... kitty ;)
No, but it usually comes back finer...get to know a good wax tecnician...%26amp; keep her as your friend!
Waxing will actually stimulate growth. If you really want to get rid of the hair, you should try laser removal or some other method.
