You’re about to learn how to get rid of unwanted hair without waxing and plucking, and without spending tons of money on laser treatments and electrolysis. The following at-home hair removal techniques are easy, natural, inexpensive, and free of side effects. And most importantly, they’re effective. Let’s get started!
Method 1: Raw Papaya
Papaya removes hair and exfoliates skin while its natural enzyme, papain, breaks down hair follicles and restricts hair growth. This remedy works for all skin types, including extremely sensitive skin.
Process 1: Papaya & Turmeric
Tools & Ingredients
Raw Papaya
Turmeric Powder
Peeler
Grinder
Instructions:
Peel and slice your raw papaya.
Grind a few slices to make a pulp.
Stir ½ teaspoon turmeric powder into 1-2 tablespoons papaya pulp.
Apply the mixture to unwanted hair.
Massage for 15-20 minutes, then wash off with water.
Repeat 1-2 times weekly.
Process 2: Papaya, Turmeric, Mustard Oil & Aloe Vera
Tools & Ingredients
¼ tablespoon papaya powder (or 1 tablespoon papaya paste)
¼ tablespoon turmeric powder
¼ tablespoon gram flour
4 tablespoons Aloe Vera gel
2 tablespoons mustard oil
2 drops any essential oil (lavender, peppermint, etc.)
Olive oil or moisturizer
Clean, dry cloth
Instructions
In a bowl, mix papaya powder (or paste), turmeric powder, gram flour, Aloe Vera gel, mustard oil, and your choice of essential oil to make a paste.
Apply the paste to unwanted hair, spreading it in the opposite direction of hair growth.
Leave on 15-20 minutes or until dry.
Remove paste by rubbing with clean, dry towel in the opposite direction of hair growth.
Wash the area with water and pat dry.
Massage the area with olive oil or moisturizer for a few minutes.
Repeat 3-4 times weekly for at least 3 months.
Method 2: Chickpea Flour Mask
Chickpea flour removes unwanted hair and prevents future growth.
Tools & Ingredients
½ cup chickpea flour
1 teaspoon turmeric powder
1 teaspoon fresh cream
½ cup milk
lukewarm water
bowl

In a bowl, mix chickpea flour, turmeric powder, cream, and milk to form a paste.

Using your fingers, rub gently in the opposite direction of hair growth. If the mask has dried, wet your fingers first.
Wash with lukewarm water.
Repeat frequently to discourage hair growth.
Method 3: Turmeric
When mixed with water, milk, or yogurt, turmeric removes hair and prevents re-growth. It also has anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory properties that keep skin clear and healthy.
Process 1: Turmeric & Rosewater
Tools & Ingredients
Turmeric powder
Rosewater (or plain water or milk)
Warm water
Instructions
Add rosewater, plain water, or milk to turmeric powder and stir to make a fine paste.
