How TO tackle it
There is a myth that shaving or plucking makes hair grow back thicker and stronger, but this isn’t the case,’ says consultant trichologist Carole Michaelides.

‘It’s more an optical illusion — rather than being long and fine, the hair is short and stumpy.’

Endocrinologist Dr Rina Davison adds: ‘There isn’t one best way to remove hair.

‘In some people, waxing might cause ingrown hairs and infections, and bleaching isn’t always an option for darker skin.

‘Laser is an effective treatment, but it is expensive and you must make sure the trigger of the unwanted hair has been rectified.

‘If it is a hormonal condition, for example, this must be treated first or you will continue to grow the hair and the results won’t be permanent.’

If the hair is triggered by a hormonal condition, the British Association of Dermatologists recommends a range of medical treatments available on the NHS.

These include anti-androgens to block male hormones, eflornithine cream to slow hair growth, or the contraceptive pill.
