If you’d rather tackle your bum hair less frequently, then there is a solution for long-lasting results. "Laser hair removal can be effective for a semi-permanent reduction," says Carswell. "It targets hair follicles with laser energy to inhibit future hair growth."
However, it's essential to seek professional treatment for this delicate area. "Additionally, as with all laser treatments, the success is dependent on the color of the hair—so it could potentially be more expensive if you have lighter hair," adds Smith.
