A member asked:
Does waxing chest/back hair cause any serious health problems like cancer ? can waxing eyebrows cause you to lose sight by pulling hair close to eyes

No such thing!: There is no connection between waxing and Cancer. Hair are not connected with the Vision either. So you need not worry!

No: What you do with whatever hair that Mother Nature gave you is your business. Waxing won't cause cancer or blindness.
