Facial hair - beginning to look like Rasputin!!

I am still using tweezers for my chin hair but they grow back so fast I need to check every other day. I wish the hair on m6 head grew so fast I would be like Rapunzel by now. I too am interested if anyone has had IPL removal and if it is any good.

I use veet sensitive for nostrils and upper lip area - both very effective. Tweezers for chin hair - but that’s getting too much now, so I’m going for electrolosis. Lazer treatment is not permanent- I’ve been told and does not get rid of white hair.

Ive had chemo and had a weird hair loss experience. Almost gone from head, gone from legs, and underarms but still on chin, specially left hand side where I have a downy half beard effectively !!

I usually have lip and chin waxed.

I had pcos as a younger woman and was alway prone to a hairy chin. I tried every thing going electrolysis was painful and expensive and only works on the dark hair. All things have drawbacks I settled on a razor and although I dislike it, it is the best for me.

if it is that bad then electrolysis is the only anwer. Left undealt with I would have a beard to rival my DH's. I tried the creams, eplilators which are fine with those with just a ladylike over growth.

But if it is bad, and mine was, electrolysis is the only answer. I have been having it for 40 years now. weekly to begin with, a couple of times a year now,

I've got a rechargeble Braun facial epilator, magic and very quick and easy to use. Tashless in no time!

I’ve started shaving too! Nicked my chin the first time so have learned not to press too hard. Must remember my face is softer than my legs?‍♀️. Make up goes on so much better without the peach fuzz.

I've tried the little pencil things but they did little, and I used to get threaded or waxed but it grows back so quickly that I gave up and now shave every morning with a good quality, man's razor.

Thank you for the tips, ladies. Especially the one about nostrils - I wondered if I might be the only one with these particular perishers!!

I use a very small gadget made by Braun. It cost about £20 in Boots. Very effective.

Laser hair removal, either in a salon or using a home device. The ones on Amazon are about £60 with 3000 5star reviews.

I get mine threaded or waxed. During lockdown, I had to resort to sitting with a magnifying mirror (oh the horror!) and plucking them out with tweezers. The relief when my local beauty salon reopened was incredible.

Epilator. Takes practice - learn the general thing on legs, and then go steady on the face. Smoother for longer than anything else (I haven't seriously done the Veet type of thing). Couple of minutes in the morning and all is lovely! The skin is less injured than with tweezers and apart from truly wiry ones, they come through softer. At the same time I started using an exfoliating glove, so that may help too. uk.braun.com/en-gb/female-hair-removal/epilators

I pluck as much as possible and then burn off the rest (sounds dramatic). I just swiftly run a lighter over my chin/neck. They do this in middle Eastern countries. It works very well for fine hairs.

I do this because I can't use depilatory cream because it burns me, and waxing my chin and neck leaves raised red splotches that take days to go away. I wax my top lip with no problems.

I know tweezing out eyebrow hair is permanent as I did it when I was a young woman . Now my eyebrows are sparse bristles which I cut off with scissors when they grow long so my eyebrow pencilling will not leave gaps.

I use a battery shaver for my nostril hair . I find I have to press down slightly on the business end so I apply Savlon cream afterwards .
