A. Much of this information was gathered from Dr. Sara Rosenthal's recent book Women and Unwanted Hair, as well as Sheila Godfrey's Principles and Practice of Electrical Epilation. While this information is no substitute for consulting a physician, I am dedicated to helping everyone learn about unwanted hair. This page discusses different aspects of unwanted hair and targets females. Many men also deal with unwanted hair, we are by no means ignoring their issues. For more information, please contact your physician.
