Title: Hair
Post by: Kareneva on October 23, 2024, 04:09:04 PM: Hi I cant log into my old account but wanted to ask if anybody else suffers with hair under chin, neck, jawline and a few at side of mouth

I shave it every morning and night it’s awful and I don’t know how to get rid of it for good

I went through menopause in my fifties and am now nearly 64 and apart from the ocassional flush symptoms have gone

I also have a ladies facial shaver-thingy to get rid of the hairs down my cheeks. I started a thread, years ago, I'll bump it.

When I started getting wiry dark hairs on my bum, that drove me mad and was the last straw so I purchased a Braun IPL to use everywhere, I wish I had got one years ago, only problem now is they are all turning silver!

Post by: LittleClaire on October 26, 2024, 02:57:51 PM: Yes I get it too! I used to get the odd hair now and again that I’d have to pluck out but noticing lately I’m having to pluck every day, and they are quite coarse hairs too. I get them on my chin, side of jaw and even right by the side of my ears it’s so annoying >:(
