A number of hair growth inhibitors are available on the market and generally claim to slow the growth of hair.

The basic idea behind hair inhibitors is that they are often used after you have removed unwanted hair using some form of hair removal to slow the regrowth of the unwanted hair.

Many hair inhibitors are available in various retail outlets and there is at least one product in particular that requires a prescription.

I don't have a lot of personal experience with such products although I did try one non-prescription product for a short period of time. Given that I didn't use it long enough to really notice any difference, I can't say that it worked and can't really say that it didn't work either.

The products often come in a lotion, cream or spray format and are usually applied directly to the area where hair removal has been conducted.

Whether or not every hair growth inhibitor on the market actually works is a bone of contention. You can certainly find a number of products on the market that make various claims and new ones are popping up on the market regularly.

Your best bet is to do your homework if you are considering using a hair growth inhibitor. If the product you are considering has independent and verifiable research on its merits, carefully read it and consider its findings.

If a product requires a prescription, it's because it is considered to be a drug so you'll need to speak with a doctor about its merits and possible side effects. The fact that it requires a prescription means that research should be available that documents its ability to slow the growth of hair.

When it comes to these sorts of products you'll need to learn how to figure out the difference between fact and hype.

Temporary and permanent hair removal technology is evolving constantly and is relevant to both men and women who want to remove unwanted hair.
