Is there a way to stop random bits of hair growing down the back of my neck? (Photo)

Question

On the back of my neck, past my hairline there's always hair that grows and goes down my neck. It's on the left side and the right and it grows around two weeks after having it cut. I asked a few people who i know if they knew if there's anything i could do, and their best answer was to get it cut. I thought about laser surgery, but i'm not sure if that'd work on it? Thanks. ( i found the picture online, but it shows what i'm talking about)

Thanks for your question and photo.
It appears that you may be a good candidate for laser hair removal to address
the unwanted hair on the back of your neck. That area can be difficult to trim
in-between haircuts, so exploring the option of a permanent solution with hair
removal is a good idea. Visit a laser hair removal specialist to discuss your
candidacy for this treatment and, if so, how many treatment sessions you may need
to resolve your concern.

Thank you for your question about Laser Hair Removal.Laser hair removal would be a good option. Typically 6 treatments are recommended to start. You may need "touch up" treatments once or twice a year. To be sure what is best for you, see two or more board-certified providers in your area for a complete evaluation to make sure you are a good candidate and that it is safe for you to have treatment.I hope this helps.

Hello, Thank you for your question and for including a photo. The growth of hair down the back of the neck is a very common thing in both men and women. Because men mostly wear their hair shorter than women, this hair growth is more of a concern for men.  Laser hair reduction is a good option to rid this area of growth. Laser hair removal is a series of treatments, usually 6-8 treatments done 4 weeks apart in this area. Good Luck!
