Question:

Is waxing of hands legs and private parts permitted for women?

Answer:

Bismillah

It will be permissible for a female to remove the hair from the arms, legs and private parts by using cream, wax, powder etc… It is also acceptable for women to use razors to remove hair from below the navel, but it is better for her to remove it by plucking it out. (Raddul Muhtar p.406 v.6 & Mirqaat p.212 v.8, Aapke Masaail p.111 v.7)
