womens facial hair

I shave mine, have had it since being pregnant with DS. I don't fancy an epilator and I've not tried the Wizzit but will look at it. I can't have laser treatment due to medication taking. I just hope next man in my life likes a hairy woman!

Wow - I have just bought a WizzIt and am thrilled with it - amazingly removed my chin whiskers with no trouble at all. Have been waxing and using tweezers with doubtful results. Ordered it from Amazon and it arrived within 2 days. A new me...........

I have dark hair and have my eyebrows, lip and chin treated by threading once a month. My mum prefers waxing. Occasionally I use hair removing cream on my cheek bones.
I tried electrolysis for years but it really did nothing.

For those of you who are unsure what threading is here is an example:

I have lots of fair hair, some fine some certainly not , I pluck and wax but if I go for a couple of days without paying attention to my chin I could make money on a sideshow!

Why does laser treatment not work on fair hair?

I find Louis Marcel the best cream.

Neither method makes hair grow faster (or thicker). Old wives' tale!

Does the braun epilator make the hair grow faster like shaving?very nervous of use on face

Got one! An Epilady (£20.99)

Thank you sherish. I'll have a look on Ebay. Checked on Amazon, but they were really quite dear.

Laser hair removal is only really successful with dark hair.

Nellie moser ,at moment people say they cannot see it but when the sun shines or in bright day light it can be seen,has only just appeared in the last couple of months due to a bad spell of anxiety,the doctor says use creams,have tried this but not too keen,any body had good results with hair removal creams and hair inhibitor,thanks

Marelli: I bought my epillator New in the box from eBay. I think I paid around £20 but they last ages. Well worth the money.

Thank you Flower that was the question I didn't like to ask.

I always pluck facial hairs, at first it was time consuming but they get finer and fewer as time goes on.

I pluck the odd one. What does threading do? how and what does it look like when threaded. Or is it pulled out after threading? Sorry to be so ignorant

Left to itself I would have a beard to rival DH's. It is dark and bristly do for over 30 years I have been having electrolysis. I started out weekly and now only go once or twice a year, but even then new hairs constantly make the progression from fine and downy to bristly and long.

I watched it being done once, and was astonished at the speed of the procedure - the client had quite a lot of dark downy hair rather like sideburns.

I have v. fair soft down on my chin line and top lip. I leave well alone. Occasionally there is a rogue white bristle or two which I pluck out when I eventually notice them.

Has anyone tried threading on their facial hair,not just eyebrows?

I've just had my top lip threaded and I would recommend it (I shaved it before)
Although it's quite painful, it's so quick that it doesn't matter and there's no stubble. It's supposed to stop the hair growing back.

(Depending on the make, of course)

Mine's a Wizzit, about £14.99, but they can get expensive at places like Boots etc.

glass ! I've got the same problem, and the hair is quite wiry, though it is white! I bought one of those Finishing Touch things, but really all it is, is a pretty shaver shaped like a pen. I've just run my fingers over my chin.... ! I sometimes use wax strips to remove the hair, but I have quite sensitive skin and feel like I'm removing a layer of it each time I rip the strip away. Perhaps an epilator, but are they not quite expensive, sherish?
