What is it?
While electrolysis sounds more threatening, the premise behind this method is that a needle zaps the hair at its root and kills it.
Electrolysis offers permanent results, but of course, there is no guarantee and effectiveness varies from guy to guy, hair follicle to hair follicle. This procedure must be performed by a professional electrologist and requires weekly appointments for optimal results. The upside is that electrolysis weakens hairs a the root and eventually eliminates growth.
Ideal parts to zap: Eyebrows (unibrow), sporadic hairs on face or neck
Pain factor: 6/10
Bottom line: Since it's more time-consuming than waxing (it could take up to a year to eliminate hair completely), save the electrolysis for your unibrow or other small patches of hair that you want to get rid of for good.
