Waxing gave me ingrown hairs, which suck a lot. It looks like you have a bunch of zits.
I've found that nair is best for me, as I only really need to remove the hair for a week or so at a time (beach vacations, etc.)
It grows back within about 5 days, and it can be a little stubbly when it grows back, but it's quick and cheap.

Laser Hair removal is the best option , but depending how hairy you are , it will take alot of time for it to finnish. They cant do it at once on max powder, thatll just burn the skin. Last time I checked it was one session about every 2 months (you need 1-2 months for the skin to heal before getting the next treatment ), for 1-2 years for the hair to be gone. and its quite expensive also.

As Shera stated, laser is considered to be permanent. However, as a precaution for the laser hair removal, don't use one that DOES NOT touch your skin. Ones that are ACTUALLY intended for hair removal will most likely have to have skin contact. (Some places try pass off lasers intended for tatoo removal as ones for hair removal. These ones will turn your hair gray rather than actually reduce it).

Your best bet is either waxing or laser hair removal. waxing enables for longer periods in between needing maintenace and keeps the follicles soft...so no rough stubble when it begins to grow back, plus leaves a nice smooth as a baby's bottom finish...wheras neat only goes to the surface not down to the root and you'd have to maintain alot more often...laser hair removal is permanent hair removal...very effective however very costly too. Do not shave as this will cause your regrowth to come in more coarse....

Coming from another hairy Italian, I use Nair for Men once a month or so on my arms and back. It's a bit messy but it works well.

You may want to check on this Hair No More gel review

It might not be appropriate if you have large amounts of hair to remove. In that case.. I suggest a wax and then maintain with this gel.
