    I have hair on my upper lip. I hate it, drives me crazy! Something I found that works really, really good is the Nair hair remover for men. It works a lot better than the ladies, for me anyway. The things we women have to go through.

    Thank you Kay for the beautiful sig!

    I am ROFLMAO picturing us PT women looking like the "cavemen" on the Geico Car Insurance commercial!!!!

    Hairy women of Pt UNITE!!!!!

    Anna,

    I've used Surgi-Creme for years and it works great. I can't remember who recommended it to me. My mom used to use Nair on her face. And that was way back (32 years) when the chemicals were alot harsher. Especially your face. EEEWWWWWWW!! I shudder just thinking about it.

    Stupid question about hair removal

    I use tweezers & do the plucking thing myself.. I tried the waxing thing once on my shinn & you could have heard me for six blocks so that did it for me & waxing..

    Its a little pricey, but Laser Removal works and is permanent.
    A couple years ago I had my upper lip done. It has never come back. Also had my eyebrows done. Was worth every penny.
    just me

    I use Surgi-Creme. It's great. It also comes with a tube of moisturizing creme to put on after you use the treatment.

    All you do is dampen the area with a warm washcloth. I put it on with a Q-Tip. You only leave it on for 12 minutes then wipe off with a warm wet washcloth. Put the moisturizing creme on afterwards and you're good to go!!

    Epilady is shear torture, as is the wax. I tried NADS. Don't care for that much either.

    I consider myself very lucky in that I don't have to shave everyday.

    Dooon't do it. I forget the name of the product but it was something just like that veet stuff, I tried it on my face. It gave me a chemical burn! and I used it 1 less minute than it said, too.


    I'm personally looking forward to the laser remover but waxing is fine for now.

    ((they charge $45 for face here....))

    Kim, I can sympathise as I have the same problem. At the moment I get threading done, but will be saving up for laser hair removal next year.

    Have you tried to see if Veet or Nair make a removal cream specifically for the face???

    Thanks Kay for my great sig & avatar!!!

    We must be some pretty hairy women! I'll have to look into that Surgi Creme. Sounds a lot easier than the waxing.

    I did the right thing by setting you free
    But the pain is very deep.
    If only I could turn back time, forever, you I'd keep.
    I miss you


    I hear you whimper in your sleep
    I gently pet you and say, no bad dreams
    It will be alright, to my dog as dark as night.

    Fur as dark as the night.
    Join me on this flight.
    Paws of love that follow me.
    In my heart you'll forever be.
    [/SIZE]



    How I wish I could hold you near.
    Turn back time to make it so.
    Hug you close and never let go.

    Yeah, pretty soon they won't be able to tell us women from our cats and dogs! LOL
