Natural Or Non-Chemical Hair Removal?

I found a recipe on the internet a few years ago for something called "Persian Sugar Wax". I don't remember the exact recipe, but I think it was 2 cups of sugar, 2 tablespoons of water and two tablespoons of lemon juice, boiled to the color of strong tea. If you do a search on the internet you can probably find the exact recipe. Then you use as any normal wax you buy in the store. I would recommend buying Sally Hansen's Ultra Sooth Skin Relief Lotion. It soothes your skin, and prevents the ugly red bumps.

Unless the hair is embarassingly thick, dark and on your top lip I would suggest you stop being dictated to by fashion and 'beauty' magazines and leave your body hair alone! If you think about it rationally you will find that the removal of female body hair, like men shaving, is dictated by social pressure and media driven fashion. It has nothing to do with health or natural beauty. Think for yourself and save money!
