Has anyone used a home permanent hair remover
I've been using the Tria system for quite awhile now (They're selling version 4, and I have an original). It's taken me longer than your average bear since my tan tends to linger deep into winter, and so I only get 2-3 month period where my skin tone is light enough. (I just started doing touch up areas two weeks ago for this year) I can attest that it does work. The areas I've done have much slower hair growth, is very sparse, and what does grow is significantly thinner and finer.
The downside is the treatment area per zap is about the diameter of a pencil, so it takes a long time and a lot of patience to do a area of any size (the systems with a larger rectangular head take many more treatments to accomplish the same results). You also have to have relatively dark hair and light skin. There are systems that claim a wider range in each catagory, but I suspect the lighter your hair the less effective the treatments will be, and the darker your skin, the more likely skin damage will occur.

We talked about it, but it would be 30-mile trip and it sounds like it would take several trips. If I remember it was rather costly at least here in the Midwest. I am not that harry so a couple times a week in the shower I do a quick once over have been smooth for many years.
Anything you see advertised for sale as a "permanent" hair remover IS NOT a "permanent" hair remover. The only ACTUAL "permanent" hair remover I know of is genetics. Even chemo and radiation aren't "permanent" hair removers.
I use an IPL but can't tell if it works.
There are hundreds of IPL devices on Amazon. I can tell you the light is intense for sure and if you get one make sure to always look away when you use it or you won't see for a few minutes.
