Women are increasingly likely to embrace their body hair, with one in five now content to let their leg, armpit, and bikini lines grow.<\/p>\n

A poll of 2,000 adults suggests body hair trends have changed in recent years, with 22 per cent of females now \u2018more likely\u2019 to leave body and facial hair unshaved when it suits<\/span> them.<\/p>\n


\n<\/p>\n

And for some, this approach is liberating, as 14 per cent said their body and facial hair allows them to express themselves.<\/p>\n

However, the findings suggest many are keeping their body hair due to wider concerns around removal methods and painful past experiences.<\/p>\n

Half are worried they\u2019ll get skin irritation or allergic reaction due to hair removal, while 33 per cent fear they\u2019ll get spots and 31 per cent worry the process will hurt.<\/p>\n

The research was commissioned by Philips, makers of the Facial Hair Removal 5000 Series – a new tool designed specifically for women so they can gently remove facial hair – to look at changing attitudes towards body hair.<\/p>\n

Junior doctor Dr Kemi Fabusiwa, who is working with the brand and has an interest in skincare, said: \u201cWomen today are much more concerned with finding the best hair removal tool for them, especially when it comes to their face.<\/p>\n

\u201cRightly so, as incorrect facial hair removal can lead to hyperpigmentation, irritation and, in the worst-case scenario, even scarring.\u201d<\/p>\n

Of the 87 per cent of women who said having facial hair bothers them, 19 per cent choose to remove their \u2018peach fuzz\u2019 because it prevents them from having a smooth base for their skincare and makeup.<\/p>\n

But 62 per cent of women have tried to physically remove hair from their face – with 73 per cent using tweezers to do so.<\/p>\n

The study, via\u00a0OnePoll.com, also found 12 per cent have risked injury using scissors, while 12 per cent have attempted to pull it using their nails.<\/p>\n

And a small number (two per cent) have even resorted to using Sellotape to get rid of their facial fuzz.<\/p>\n

Chlo\u00e9 Fallon, spokesperson for Philips, said: \u201cWe know that every individual woman's grooming routine is as unique as they are.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd all women should feel able to express themselves via their body hair in whatever way makes them feel most confident.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf or when they choose to remove their facial hair, we want them to feel confident in their method of removal – and not reach for the dangerous, painful or unsuccessful techniques we know people have resorted to in the past.<\/p>\n

DR KEMI\u2019S TOP TIPS FOR REMOVING FACIAL HAIR<\/h3>\n
    \n
  1. Always start by gently washing and drying the area of the skin you are working with to clear pores and help prevent irritation<\/li>\n
  2. Ensure you have a mirror and good lighting to clearly see where the hairs are and the areas you want to focus on.<\/li>\n
  3. Finally, use an electronic facial hair remover, which will gently cut the hairs close to the skin without causing friction or skin irritation like you would see from more traditional hair removal methods.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
