Lemon Honey Paste
This remedy is especially good for removing facial hair. Make a paste using four teaspoon honey and juice of one lemon. Rub gently for 15 minutes all over the face in the direction opposite to your hair growth. Wash off with lukewarm water. This can effectively clear your facial skin, if carried out twice or thrice a week.
Sugaring
Mess alert! This home remedy is quite similar to waxing, except it is done using natural ingredients and without any chemicals. This is however, a bit messy and quite sticky, but it works! You will need half a cup of water, 4 tablespoons of sugar and 1 teaspoon lemon juice. Mix everything and heat in a pan till it bubbles up to a smooth texture. Cool it to a lukewarm temperature, and apply a thin layer in the direction of your hair growth. Use a strip of muslin cloth to cover the area, press for two minutes, and pull it off in one swift move. Repeat all over the body. The effects of sugaring can last as long as 6 weeks.
Dough Ball
This particular remedy is even used on babies to thin out or stop body hair growth. All you need is a ball of kneaded dough, dipped in some oil. Rub the ball rigorously all over the body where hair growth is high. Over time it will surely reduce hair growth, so it is best to start early!
Hair growth can also be affected by changes in diet and lifestyle. A cup of spearmint tea twice a day is known to reduce male sex hormones in the body, that cause hair to grow. If you’re overweight, now is a good time to take up an exercise routine, as excess weight can also contribute to hair growth. With these simple home remedies, you can have a smooth, envious body naturally!
