worstenemy: What are you referring to? Shaving is the best non-permanent removal option out there. Epilating, plucking, or waxing can distort the follicles and make electrolysis and laser much more difficult in the long run AND can even cause hairs to grow darker and thicker over the long term.
If you can't afford permanent removal, shaving (or bleaching) are THE best methods to prevent hair from becoming worse.
