Hair Growth Remedies

Is there any product out there that actually inhibit or atleast slows down the hair growth (underarms, legs, etc.). Please don’t suggest laser hair removal and etc. its too expensive . Im looking for a cream or a lotion?

I haven’t ever waxed yet, but it just seems to make more sense to pull in the direction of hair growth, that they would come out easier and it would hurt less. Can someone please explain?
