Recently I created a list of men that shave their legs like athlete's and models explaining why they're taking the razor to their them. Then I wrote my take on men having hairless legs in: Should Men Shave Their Legs? But, what's more important is your opinion. You can respond right on that page and read what others think. Don't be shy, I'm sure you have something to say about it.

When Tria first came out last year, the cost was $995. Then in February of this year Tria released an updated model with the laser firing two times faster and cut the price to $795. Well as of today, Tria is now $200 cheaper at $595.

For a limited time Tria Beauty is offering a payment plan. $295 down and seven monthly payments of $49.95 gets you Tria the home laser device (buy direct). Yes, it works out to be more like $645. But is still a great option if you can't afford the $595 all at once.

How clean the salon or spa you go to is a very serious thing. Many times I have wrote about the dangers of double-dipping. This is when the technician takes an applicator, applies it to the client's skin, and then puts in back into the wax pot to get more wax instead of throwing it away. They are supposed to get a clean applicator for each swipe to the skin, otherwise it can become contaminated by touching an area infected with herpes, for instance. The heat of the wax does not kill any viruses.

Unfortunately, there are salons or spas out there that double-dip out of ignorance, to save money or out of pure laziness. For the wax to stay uncontaminated, each employee must not be double-dipping for you to be protected. This segment on bostonchannel.com warns about an increase of cases of eye herpes in Midwest states that have been directly linked to eyebrow waxing and poor sanitary practices.

Double-dipping is just one of the signs to look for to let you know to run the other way and find somewhere else to get waxed. This list: Safe Waxing gives you the full run down.

Epilators work by removing each hair from the follicle for you automatically (think speedy electric tweezer). If the hair is successfully removed instead of broken, you can be hair-free for weeks versus the day or so with shaving. Braun makes a couple different Silk-épil Xpressive Epilators, but their 7281 body system shown on the left (compare prices) is the only one that can be used both in or out of the shower. This is not only convenient for saving time, but the heat from the bath or shower helps to soften the hair follicle so the discomfort is less.

All of their three models are fully washable, have pivoting heads to adjust to the contours of the body and a light so that you can easily see the fine hairs. If you're looking for facial hair removal, their 7781 Easystart model (compare prices) is their only epilator that can be used both on the face and body.
