Laser hair removal has come a long way in recent years, with advancements in technology making it mostly suitable for all hair and skin colours. If the prospect of permanent hair removal and smooth skin appeals, you might want to start investing now given that winter is the ideal time for laser treatment. The light energy from the laser enters the skin and is absorbed by melanin surrounding the hair follicle. Melanin is naturally present in the hair follicle, and when targeted with the laser in the right stage of hair growth, the hair follicle overheats damaging the bulb, preventing further hair growth. The process is called photothermolysis. In addition to aesthetic benefits, there are some medical benefits.

In the whispering alcoves of a Mayfair members' club, top facialist Teresa Tarmey and I are suffering from an attack of the giggles. We're discussing female facial hair, and like most taboo subjects there's an inherent humour involved. The poor besuited gentlemen at the table next to us look shellshocked: they've officially had their bearded-lady cherry popped.
What's the best option if you've got unwanted facial hair as a woman? Waxing, lasering, threading, bleaching, shaving or plucking - it's a minefield out there, and as someone struggling to manage a teeny, tiny ronnie, I want the best answer and I want it now. I must state that this post is strictly aimed at those who consider their facial hair unwanted - if you're rocking those sideburns or embracing your Frida Kahlo unibrow, I'm in awe and full of respect. But for lots of women, removing facial hair is a constant uphill battle that can never be permanently won. Ellen is obviously the expert here.
