- 1). Shave your fingers. Since the fingers are small areas, shaving the hair there doesn't take much time. Finger hair also tends to be finer than hair elsewhere on the body, so stubble won't be terribly prominent. You will have to shave your fingers about once a week to keep them hair-free.
- 2). Pluck your finger hair. If you just have a few hairs on your fingers, plucking is a viable option. Invest in a good pair of tweezers that will grasp hairs firmly. If you have dense finger hair, plucking may be too painstaking.
- 3). Purchase a hair waxing kit. These kits usually include wax, an instrument to spread the wax and strips to remove the wax. Follow the kit's directions regarding heating up, applying and removing the wax, as instructions will vary from kit to kit. Since waxing pulls hair out from the root, results generally last 3 to 6 weeks.
- 4). Consider electrolysis. As the only permanent hair removal method available, electrolysis involves treating each individual hair follicle with an electrical current, effectively killing it. Since the finger areas are small, they serve as good places to receive electrolysis. The number of sessions you'll need depend upon the density and growth cycles of your finger hair.
- 5). Get laser hair removal. If your finger hair is dark and your skin is light, you're an ideal candidate for laser hair removal. Lasers can work with darker skin tones but are not effective on blond or light-colored hair. Though laser hair removal is not technically permanent, it can offer you significant long-term hair reduction on your fingers. Most professionals will offer a free consultation to discuss your situation with you.
