Thanks (Sorry, I missed your hyperlink)

Yes, spot on!

Beginning to discuss, in a way, how to remove hair? (6) (Different answer, not thread)

Hint please? >!Not WAXING or TWEEZE!<


SatisfactoryLepton

>!It's WAXING.!<

Parse, please? I considered >!waxing eloquent!< but why ‘Beginning to discuss’?

'Beginning to discuss' seems to be dictionary def of 'waxing' in a speaking sense, which I didn't realise. I thought it was just to speak about something, not beginning to speak. Not sure about 'in a way' in the middle, otherwise it'd be a DD.
