Is it better to wax or bleach facial hair?

Oh yeah, I'm not Chewbacca hairy in anyway ( I don't have any leg hair) but I'm a brunette so I'm very conscious of it and I think that when I wax I brake out or the blemishes might be as a result of my "cycle"

  • I wax. Myself. I bought a kit at Sally's and I do my eyebrows and upper lip every couple weeks so it's never out of control.

  • Wax. My mom bleaches her mustache and all it does is give her a blonde mustache LOL. Just suck it up and wax it. Sally Hansen sells really great wax strips that I use on my lip and eyebrows. I get the big ones so I can cut them down to size and sometimes I even use them on my armpits or legs.

  • Definitely wax.

    Lightening only makes things more obvious IMO.

    Definitely don't recommend Nair, or those creams...major redness/rash alert...LOL.

  • I've waxed, but I pluck it now. You're luck you have no leg hair (how is that possible???)

  • I wax mine. DH always teases me, saying I have more hair on my upper lip than he does. LOL Are you afraid of getting it waxed? I've been doing it since I was 10 b/c it was SO bad. It's not nearly as bad, and the hair is much more fine now.

  • I love NADS! You can get in most drug stores and Wal-Mart.
    It comes in predone strips ( my favorite) and in the whole kit
    I have used NADS on my legs and so far ( 1 1/2 weeks) later, still not even a stubble!
    I use the strips, less mess on my legs, face and belly!
