    I have been waxing for years and don't use a razor in between. I find that I only get about a week before little hairs start to grow and as I have dark hairs you can see them - is there anything I should be doing to prevent this :) thanks

    I've only been waxing for a few months now, I get it done once a month. I find I have find hairs growing back after about a week and it starts to get noticeable by week 2. My hair is probably long enough to get rewaxed after 3 weeks but I leave it till 4 weeks anyway.

    I have noticed the hairs getting softer and softer with every wax, I assume that'll eventually plateau off but it means the regrowth is less and less noticeable.

    I don't think there is anything to be done about it, some peoples hair just grows faster than others. You could try some of those hair minimising body lotions that are floating around but from what I've heard they are pretty much ineffective.

    The only real options are moving to something a little more permanent like laser hair removal. Since your hair is dark it should work pretty well as long as your skin isn't dark too.
