Upper lip hair Options

[janegruff]

it's so horrible...i have hair...like a mustache. It wasn't so visible at first. Now I can't look in a mirror. It's so embarassing. Is there some kind of solution? I mean, I heard about bleaching (how does that work?), waxing (does it hurt?), and shaving (like a guy?!?)? Help!

[toxicXgurl]

why dont u waxed it? at first its gonna hurt but its quick pain that and after the next time u go snd do it wont hurt as bad cuz ull get use 2 tha pain

[Nicolatofu]

no no no to shaving! pluck! i do that if it seems like it's getting visible to me...never tried bleaching. they also have lotion you leave on for a couple minutes that you wipe off that wipes off the hair and it doesn't hurt...

[lilJdawg]

Wax, Pluck, or bleach it. I have that too. I hate it. Dont' shave because it will grow darker.

[yeseulx3]

don't wax. it hurts like hell.

[janegruff]

Thanks for the replies. Umm, if you pluck it, do bumps come up? i mean like the hair being pulled up would pull the skin up or something like that. Sorry, I'm rambling. What do you use for waxing? And do you wax everyday?

[Nicolatofu]

no, plucking doesn't leave bumps...it may leave it red, but that goes away after a few minutes... you don't wax everyday

[Chii]

plucking hurts like hell and so does waxing...so i shave...and by the way, it doesn't grow out darker, it just appears that way because when you shave, it's at an angle

[bad_girl]

yeah i dont think it comes out darker either. but i'm too busy to do anything about it... not that visible.

[OhXiet_ItzDonnA]

oh, i have it too but i dont wax or pluck it or even shave it. i want to get it bleach though. to a very very light color. oh and shavin would make it darker and thicker, just like men

[christiee_nax]

yep. dont shave it. it'll grow thicker, coarser, darker and more visible.

if it isnt all that much and not that dark, try bleaching.

if not, wax it

[leeniex3]

wax it T>T it wont hurt ... <3 dont worry ... mostly eeryone gets that ..

[toodlepops.]

wax it. it may hurt, but hey, whats the price of beauty?

[DixieDaCutie]

[size=1]pluck or wax!!! noo no shaving--

good luck w/ that

[jasloveelmo]

don't do ittt

[usagimoon72287]

im sure its not bad im sure you notice it and think its alot, just leave it if you mess with it it will grow thicker and you will be in a huge mess

[FLIPxADDICTION]

haha shaving, might as well end up with a beard.

use nair, or pluck it.

[xMayleex]

i have a light one, i dont wax but plucking seems to hurt i have used bleaching it does help but if your skin is dark dont chose a light colour or it might be easier to see it

[Nugget]

wax it!! i waxed mines last year and im 13 now...i didnt hurt that much..i laughed since mai sister does everyone elses eyebrows and its funny since u kno its ur sister and family matters..i dont know but wax it..but im guessing it depends on the persont that waxes it??

[Nugget]

ok i thought i already did this but i guess it got erased..anyways..wax it...it doesnt hurt alot..mai sister did that to me when i was 12 and im 13 xp anyways..it doesnt really hurt..but thats me..maybe it depends on the person?? i dont know

[Nugget]

sorry that i triple posted here..mai comp is failing on me..=\

[Shattered_Hope]

wow...err..just avoid using a razor..waxing will help you the most out of the ones that have been suggested..plucking will hurt...but just..calm down?? go to your mom..and ask her...she's probably been there..

[xj_liana_tx]

don't wax, it hurts like hell, just ignore it, if it really bothers you, have laser surgery

[inquisitive_]

The best and easiest way is to bleach it. It doesn't hurt and only takes a few minutes.

[angelrevelation]

well i pluck. hehe i never thought of nair! i just use it for my legs! haha i'm slow sometimes... but nair kinda wears down my nails... i'd suggest pluck (it doesnt hurt after a while) or wax, which probably hurts at first too, but you get used to it.

[angelrevelation]

well i pluck. hehe i never thought of nair! i just use it for my legs! haha i'm slow sometimes... but nair kinda wears down my nails... i'd suggest pluck (it doesnt hurt after a while) or wax, which probably hurts at first too, but you get used to it.

[you suck]

dont bleach thats like ur kinda albino. dont pluck that hurts too much and god do not shave. do u wonder HOW guys get such thick mustaches? cuz they shave. wax...please

[sheddingtears]

DO ANYTHING, BUT JUST DON'T SHAVE IT. YOU'LL REGRET IT. I HEARD IT GETS ALL PRICKLY AND DARK.

[*stephinika*]

yeah i'd wax...it would hurt at first but once you get used to it, then you'll be fine.

[gigiopolis]

DON'T SHAVE. If you shave, you'll have stubble like a guy. It'll hurt. =(

Try waxing. It hurts a little, but the pain stops coming in a minute.

[Me= Sex-C Love x...]

Well I don't shave, pluck, wax, or bleach...i dont think so anyways...I use a hair remover cream. You know Nair? For your face. It kinda works...but when you wipe it off...sometimes it won't go, because you didn't leave it on long enough and it sort of stinks. Not BAD stink, but smells kinda wierd.

[whvrgrl]

I tried Nair today. I didn't know about testing it first so I put it on. It's been half an hour and it keeps stinging. I'm so worried about possible allergic reactions! It hurts so much. Help!

[MetalChick77]

^ Did you use the nair for legs?! You shouldve used the facial one, its not as powerful!

Try putting lotion on it, it works for me :)

Anyways, i use bleach. Im not as white (like albino) either. I have to leave it on long enough tho, or else it wont work.

[aznsushi_t]

I feel yu ghurl! I got it tuu... don`t pluck it or wax it! its only qoinq to qet worse

[freeflow]

wax i guess ..

[Hiiatus]

Go for threading! it's that old method using, Indian method it's not like waxing kinda like plucking anyways that's what I do for facial hair and eyebrow it's pretty clean and doesn't hurt that much. plus afterward you're skin isn't red like when you wax it.

[Looow]

waxinnnng is probably the best =]

[KatieC_Jville]

It's okay like I had it then I got Sally HAnsens bleach for the face and I put it on my lip for like 10 mins and its gone nobody noticed or nuthin

[smyleefaceangel]

threading works amazing. It doesnt hurt as much as waxing or plucking...and the redness is gone pretty soon

[XxXAnimeLuvahXxX]

Never shave! It just grows back worser!

[XxXAnimeLuvahXxX]

Ooooh, how I regret the day I shaved...

[cyber]

dont worry about it...if it does look like that you have a mustache like a normal guy...like REALLY showing, go for the waxing...but do it proffesionally done b-cuz if you do it urself, ittl hurt b-cuz you mightve done it wrong....so yeah...i dont worry about mine...everyone has that mustache...

[x_hiccupy_x]

you should wax. it hurts for 1 second..but hopefully the person takes your feelings into consideration i use this one thing that takes it away, but it ends up burning my skin coz my skins sensitive and leaves a red mark and sometimes a scab like thing. not good. waxing also takes a lil while longer to come back and its less harsh on your skin. plucking is ok i guess but i tried and my eyes were watering like mad.

[xTINAA]

waxing is best. it doesn't come back right away and it might hurt for a splitsecond, but you'll get used to it. also i wouldn't reccomend shaving, because it's just like shaving anywhere else; you have to continue it because it comes back RIGHT away. I would also recommend plucking but only if there are a few visible hairs after waxing or something because otherwise it will probably hurt too much to do each individual hair. i know nothing about bleaching. haha

[babyxyelloe]

i would prefer waxing because shaving gives you speckles and bleaching? never heard of it.

[cheri_pi]

wax it. it may hurt, but hey, whats the price of beauty?

omg... dats just stupid
yah i have it 2, especially around the edges. ive never done nething myself to get rid of it, but my friends say dont wax or pluck, cuz it hurts a bunch. i guess wut most ppl say is bleach it, cuz it doesnt hurt at all, like ur not physically harming at all... idk. good luck.

[broadway-aholic]

they make nair especially for your upper lip it has like almond oil or something in it. It actually works

[ItzOnlySydney]

SHAVE IT OR WAX IT

[the_crox]

i don't do anything.... i have a light one though. I'll show it with pride! haaa.....

[*Azarel*]

.. I laugh at girls with mustaches.
Seriously though, I'm such a mean person.

[*mzkandi*]

.. I laugh at girls with mustaches.
Seriously though, I'm such a mean person.

lol...i do too

[hair products]

they got this laser procedure

suppose to hurt a lot, but you'll never have hair there again


btw..

this one lady who always came to my work place. she had a full blown moustache

it was really bad =/

[xlitoxb]

Does that Sally Hansen stuff actually work? I've seen it for commercials and stuff.. but *shrugs* I say pluck it. My cousin does so yeah.

[xoxxoxxox]

ummm shouldnt have touched it in the first place..jsut leave it alone..if u play with it more it mite get worse..? i dunno maybe bleach is okay..id unno never tried it

[LiLaZnGirL122]

jus leave ti alone... i hav 1 too wait.. EVERY 1 HAS ONE DUMMY!!

[sweetdreamsx3]

Shave it off..

[lilphoenix]

DO NOT SHAVE IT! WHATEVER YOU DO, DO NOT SHAVE IT!

it makes it thicker and more noticable later.


wax it. it hurts like freaking hell at first, but then you get used to it.

and if you DO wax it, then don't scrub the area harshly. [this is when you clean the excess wax off, unless you want the skin to tear off.]

[*salcha*]

plucking doesnt hurt when you do it a lot

[hpsm2]

uh oh, i shaved... that makes it darker?

[TrueMex3]

.. I laugh at girls with mustaches.
Seriously though, I'm such a mean person.

ur so mean!!!

they got this laser procedure

btw..

this one lady who always came to my work place.  she had a full blown moustache

yeahhs- i heard about the laser procedure. i dont think it hurts, its just really pricey... ><;;;

ummm shouldnt have touched it in the first place..jsut leave it alone..if u play with it more it mite get worse..? i dunno maybe bleach is okay..id unno never tried it 

yeahhs i dont think u should touch it either. if it really gets on ur nerves, pluck or wax. just dont shave because it will soon become really thick and when its thick= dark!

[xsweetxcandyx]

rule 1. NEVER SHAVE it will make it worst...

you should wax are use Nairs upper lip cream, i used that.. it works great..no painbut it takes like eight minutes tho

[lilphoenix]

uh oh, i shaved... that makes it darker?

ask any guy who shaves.

[blah1234567]

i rip em off

[linister]

i bleach... sally hansen extra strength... i just use that cuz it has more but there's another one that is just for facial hair, you just put it on and wait 7 minutes and wash it off but if you wait too long its kinda burns, but if you're darker skinned it might look weird cuz it makes the hair blonde and if you do it too often (more than 1 time every 2 weeks) it makes it really noticable... both of my sisters got this laser thing done but they're older and have jobs and money... its pretty expensive and you have to go a couple of times... my cousin uses nair, the cream stuff... its kinda weird the first time you do it but after that it looks natural... threading works too, its fast and doesnt hurt, i do that in between bleachings...
hope that helped

o yeah... threading is really good too...

[lakerfever2476]

So , if you shave the best thing to do is to stop ?

[fitchbarbie_ox]

deffinatly wax it. i waxed mine once and it never grew back. but iuno if that will happen to you. but its worth a try. its just hair rite? and its not like anybody is gonna KNOW that you wax unless you go tell the whole school lol. good luck. xoxo elle

[sunissed14127]

Does that Sally Hansen stuff actually work? I've seen it for commercials and stuff.. but *shrugs* I say pluck it. My cousin does so yeah.

I use the Sally Hansen face bleach (you can buy it at walmart) and it works.

[sammehmyst]

i guess waxing would be the best choice. wax it on like.. a friday night so the next morning no one will see you swelled up.

or you could bleach it. there might be some shaving cream things that the hair just comes off too.

[bravodancer04]

DO NOT SHAVE iT!! pluck it or wax it..my aunt used this hair removal cream and it came back the next day..so idk

[EmmalieV]

wax or pluck.

[doodlegumdrops]

just a question:

how long does it take upper lip hair to grow back after you've plucked it?

[O x LiseE x O]

Try the "Nair upper hair remover" I read about it online ... you just put it on let it sit for so long, then take a towel and wipe it off, and off the hair is. Did I mention you just WIPE it off? No pain involved.

[MetalChick77]

does facial hair remover make the hair come back thicker?

[lovemeofrme]

ok...bleach it...i do it and you don't even have to do it often and it's cheap and if you buy the right stuff it'll last a while so yeah...but don't shave and i'm scared of waxing so don't do that either..lol

[Too Asian To DIE]

i shave... the last time i shaved was lyk 2 weeks ago... i dun see any lil hairs yet... weird... its all smooth

[VGyrl88]

NO to shaving, it's evil because it leaves hair holes (black little dots) thingy; what are those call? Waxing is the better choice because it takes longer for the hair to grow back..Plucking is good too but sometimes a bump would pop up and they are like little bits of zits (they do go away after awhile so no worries)..And I don't know about bleaching..

[shortiiex]

i only could see it up close...or feel it

[bxnena]

No naiR my friend got burneD` ..nd if u pluck or wax makeshure u do it fri so no`1 would notice da rEdniisz at skoo or outside..

[mzawesome]

yeah dont wax hurts but u could get used to tha pain lols yeah use tha creams it just comes off. no pain involved.

[Animelover113]

pluck, wax, or bleach are the good options. plucking and waxing hurts, but that's the best choices to go with. as they say, beauty=pain

[c0oki3_m0n$tah]

i wouldn't shave if i was you...plucking...its not the same as plucking eyebrows..if u wana pluck, open ur pores by putting on a steamed towel or something for about a minute. it hurts less. i never tried bleaching or waxing..i heard waxing can give you rashes tho...i wouldn't want rashes on my face...

[lakerfever2476]

I pluckk. It doesn't hurt anymore ;; only in the middle. =_=
