The pumice stone, deriving from a volcanic rock, is used mostly in South Asian countries as a means of removing unwanted body hair. The use of pumice stone is very common in India and Pakistan. It is used in the shower on a daily basis to help maintain hair free skin.

The pumice stone works to exfoliate the skin removing dead skin, and hairs. Over time constant use of the stone can help to reduce the amount of body hair. To use the stone simply rinse with water and lather with body wash. Focus on certain areas at a time to maximize results. Rub the stone in a circular motion over the affected area then rinse. Daily use will eventually remove body hair permanently.

Of course this method requires patience. The pumice stone can show results in a minimum of one month if used daily. Beware though, those with sensitive skin should not use the stone every day. This is an affordable and effective method to remove unwanted body hair.

 

Turmeric and Gram Flour Scrub

Turmeric is a root deriving from the ginger family. This root is known for its antiseptic properties and countless beauty benefits. In India, turmeric is often used to remove facial and body hair. Turmeric is known to carry substances which inhibit hair growth.

Gram flour is known for yanking hair out from its roots. When combined, turmeric and gram flour create a scrub that removes hair as well as thins it out. When used consistently this scrub reduces the amount of body hair and helps to turn coarse hair into fine strands.

To create this scrub use equal parts of both turmeric powder and gram flour. Add milk to the powders until a thick paste is formed. Apply the paste to the affected areas and leave on until it dries. Once the paste has dried, using circular motions rub off with a wet rag or shower sponge. Rinse the affected area after rubbing.

Milk should be used to create the paste, not water because turmeric has a tendency to leave a yellow stain. Milk helps to minimize the appearance. After rinsing if a stain remains, use a cotton ball dipped in milk to remove the color. Before trying this method, it is best to test a non visible area first. Use this method two to three times a week in order to achieve permanent hair removal.

 

Baking Soda Infused Cleanser

When infused with a mild cleanser, baking soda can help reduce the appearance of facial hair as well as thin out coarse hair follicles. Known for creating finer hair, baking soda is often mixed into facial cleansers and scrubs in hopes of removing facial hair.

Depending on how much cleansing product is used, a few pinches to a teaspoon should be mixed into your daily face wash. When rubbing the product on your face, pay extra attention to the affected areas. Daily use can help thin out thick hair follicles and for some even diminish facial hair completely.

Beware though, baking soda is not suitable for all skin types. Before applying to the whole face, it is best to test a small patch first. When using this method, it is recommended that the baking soda be infused into the cleanser every other day. This method works slowly but surely. While the goal is to reduce and remove facial hair, baking soda can also help remove acne scars and blemishes as well. Talk about killing two birds with one stone!
