Title: Hair Removal.
Post by: catlady on April 10, 2013, 02:48:45 PM

Hi Ladies
I wonder if anyone can recommend a good hair removal cream.
I have hairs on my top lip and chin that seem to be growing more.

I could'nt stand to wax, much too painful.   I pluck them but that's painful too.

Anyone got the same problem and what do you find works best at removing them.

See my thread 'My Chin! ' ......... I have spent the last 20 mins tweezing small hairs from my upper lip, under my chin, around the sides of my face  :o

Someone....can't remember who gave a really good description of threading and also a thingy that you can buy that does something similar.

I am considering the thingy but I have meno brain today and can't remember what it's called.

I have eyebrows, upper lip and chin threaded every 3 weeks.  In between I pluck the thicker darker growth.
