Facial Hair Removal Option for Women - Removing unwanted hair
on the jaw line, chin, & upper lip

What causes facial hair in women? The same hormones that cause
it in men. Let's face it: we're a hairy breed. And in the all
too human world of beauty, we value smooth, hairless skin. Our
hormones create hair, even in the female of the species, and as
women we spend a lot of time fighting Nature to please Fashion.
Removing facial hair is an issue for women all over the world:
even in ancient times, women used hot honey and tree saps to
remove unwanted hair from the jaw line, upper lip, eyebrows and
chin.

Waxing Unwanted Facial Hair

Today, waxing is still a popular hair removal option: it's
relatively inexpensive, more thorough than plucking individual
hairs with tweezers and can be done any time. Hot wax kits
consist of a "wax" made of sugar or honey, (this is called
"sugaring"), beeswax or resin. The easiest way to do waxing at
home is to buy a microwavable wax, apply with a wooden spatula,
then spread with a strip of cotton muslin and pull off the wax
along with the offending hair. But, if you don't have the
patience to melt the wax slowly at the recommended power setting,
stir it thoroughly, test a tiny bit on the tip of your finger and
ascertain whether it's too hot, you shouldn't do that kind of
waxing because you run the risk of getting badly burned.
Microwaves work hot and fast, and the wax must be carefully
watched, timed, stirred, and tested before applying. It takes
patience.

Bleaching Upper Lip Hair to Reduce its Appearance

Another popular at-home hair removal method is bleach. You can
buy cream bleaching creams that are mixed with an activator and
then applied to the facial hair. You cannot use cream bleaches
on eyebrows or anywhere near your eyes?if they get in your eyes,
you can go blind. Some people may experience facial redness or
sensitivity from bleaching, so it's a good idea to do a 24 hour
test patch first. But if the bleach doesn't bother your skin,
and if you use it weekly, you'll not only be rendering facial
hair more invisible, after awhile it will become fragile and
start to break off, lessening its appearance even more.

Shaving is not a best practice for removing facial hair

Some people wonder how to remove facial hair by shaving, and
this is a good place to say that shaving is a bad idea. It will
leave stubble, and the only thing worse than facial hair is
facial stubble. Forget shaving anything on your face.

Electrolysis is permanent removal, but become an old technique

Electrolysis has long been considered a good way to remove hair
permanently, but it's pretty much a bygone era at this point.
Electrolysis is permanent, but it can cause pinpoint scarring;
it's expensive and it hurts like blue blazes. Treatments cause
redness and swelling or breakouts, and you risk infection. Scrap
electrolysis: if you want permanent hair removal and can afford
it, the thing to do is laser hair removal. Unlike electrolysis,
there are no needles involved; pain is practically non-existent,
any redness disappears in an hour or so, and it really works.
Laser hair removal is the best remover on the planet: thousands
of Brazilian bikini lines can't be wrong!

Threading is similar to plucking, but currently trendy

Threading is a newly rediscovered method of hair removal that
can't hold a candle to laser hair removal, but it has its uses
because it's cheaper. It's basically hair plucking, only it's
done with a thread that's rolled across the skin, catching the
hair and pulling it out. It's trendy and you'll pay more for it
than by going to a beautician for a tweezing session because it
takes special training. Frankly, most of us don't see the point.

Gotta Have a Great Pair of Tweezers for the Daily Upkeep

For cheap, fast daily hair removal at home, you've got to have
a pair of decent slant tip tweezers. They aren't as easy to find
as they should be! They must be properly balanced: the cheapo $2
no-name tweezers you get at the supermarket are never balanced
enough to get the job done. Buy tweezers from a reputable company
like Revlon, and then guard them with your life.
