| Hi there
there are lots of different methods of which i can say i have tried and tested all and am now relieved of the hair issue. For the cheaper options I would advise waxing over threading anyday!! the regrowth with waxing is much better than threading.
If you are going to bleach/ hair lighten the hairs then DO NOT use the immac hair lightener - I have sensitive skin and gave me the fright of my life but settled after a day! I used jolen as a teen, but must admit Boots own version hair lightening cream is much kinder to the skin and less pungent - jolen made the tears start (I am very sensitive - eyes and skin). Did the electrolyisis but as the hair were mega thick and dark - a waste of time.
Can i say that now i have very few hairs left on my face. In 2000 i had a treatment called IPL (intensed pulsed light) just on my chin and after 2 sessions, the thick hairs were gone and after 8 yrs they did not return. I decided to have my whole face done and have had approx 5 done since february and now most hairs have gone. I have PCOS so have hair everywhere on the body too so trust me when i say I know how horrible and fvrustrating it is, but there are ways to manage it so much better. Your G.P could also give you a cream called Vaniqa which reduces the hair on the face - but as its expensive, if you dont ask you wont get. Should you consider IPL go somewhere where you know others have been as I went to one (run by a nurse- who had the seeting too high - which caused unnecessary pain and a small scar on my bikini line) hence i did not return and stuck to the trusted clinic run by beauticians where i had been in 2000. Several of my friends have since also been and had good results. Sorry for going on a bit, but it really is great and i wish i had it done sooner.
xx
