3) How long, in general, would waxing last?
-When I use nair, it's 2 weeks before it begins to bud back.
Laser hair removal is only about $200 per visit for one area. It'll add up to over $1,000, but that's a hell of a lot more saved in convenience and ease to my way of thinking.

Any of these 2 methods are painful at first, my thoughts are that waxing would be more painful because the wax pulls on the skin as well as the hair. the epilator only pulls on the hair.

(1) More painful than a friendly just-for-fun spanking, less painful than at-home dental work.
(2) It's very effective ... you'll be smooth as a baby. I didn't find it to be especially long-lasting. Started stubbling up within what - a week?
(3) Google is your friend.

1) every person is different therefore what one might consider excruciatingly painful another might actually enjoy (think tattoos.... some people cry, some love it)
2) every person is different therefore ones hair might start showing stubble in a week whereas another might make it the whole 6 weeks without growing any out (6 weeks is supposedly the max though)
3) just like Timm said...Google is your friend, or they have this thing called the yellow pages that kinda old school where you can look up businesses and stuff
Good luck!
