Hair can be removed by any depilatory, but plucking may be harmful. It is preferable to shave the hair of the pubes and private parts with a razor or cut it with scissors, based on the hadith: "Five are from the fitra..." As for the hair of the anus, it is preferable to cut it with scissors to avoid injury. It is permissible to remove hair with nura from all areas. The use of electronic devices is permissible as long as they do not cause harm, and the fact that women predominantly use them does not prevent their use.
