Shaving is the most common method used by many women across the world since it does not cost much. Although some women fear that shaving can cause the hair to grow back in its harder and darker form the opposite is true. Shaving causes the fine tip of the hair to disappear.

The strips are them pulled off leaving the skin smooth and hairless. Many women prefer this option because the results can last up to several weeks.
Although time consuming and a bit painful, tweezing is another common method especially for eyebrows and some few stray hairs. The rate at which one tweezes will depend on the rate at which the hair grows. Also, it can be rather time consuming if you have a lot of facial hair.
The use of depilatory creams is also common these days as an alternative to hair removal. All you have to do is choose a cream meant for the face to smear the unwanted areas then wipe after a few minutes.

Since both the roots and hair are destroyed in the process it becomes impossible for hair to grow back.
