Hair removal is the removal of body hair, and describes the methods used to achieve that result. Hair typically grows all over the human body during and after puberty. Men tend to have more body hair than women. Both men and women tend to have hair on the head, eyebrows, eyelashes, armpits, pubic region and legs; and men also have hair on their face, abdomen, back and chest. Hair does not generally grow on the palms of the hands, the lips, certain areas of the genital structure, or the soles of the feet.

Forms of hair removal are practiced for a number of reasons, including cultural, sexual, medical and religious. Forms of hair removal have been practiced in almost all human cultures. The methods used to remove hair have varied in different times and regions, but shaving is the most common method.

The desire to remove unwanted hair from the body exists in both men and women, but it is usually women who wish to remove the most hair from their bodies, causing them to seek the easiest and longest lasting method of hair removal. Shaving, the most traditional method of hair removal, is often an annoyance because the unwanted hair returns very quickly. The razor can also be unkind to hard to reach places like the underarms. The commercial market has responded to the desire for easier methods of hair removal by coming up with many alternatives to shaving.
