go for the wax job. hurts like hell but if you get the right person it will last 2 months and after awhile it goes away. i had the hairiest back on the planet and after 10 yrs of getting it waxed its about 20% of what it was originally. i had very dark coarse black hair and it hurt like a mother at first, actually had blood spots all over my back. now i can barley feel it and yould never know it had just been waxed.
