Accepted Answer

Not against grain.: Insure you use fresh, sharp blades vice dull blades. If hair is &gt; several mm long – then trim before shaving. Wash area before shaving – warm water helps to soften hair. Use a lubricant when shaving. Avoid using products that contain alcohol or are scented.  Shave in direction of the hair – not against it. Be gentle when shaving – don’t push down too hard. Moisturize skin after shaving.

Accepted Answer

Unwanted Hair: I grew up hearing that the more you shave the more you will have to shave.  It may not be the best solution to be shaving that unwanted hair.

Many young women learn how to wax for these skin and hair concerns.  If you or your parents want there is also laser hair removal processes that may help as well.

Accepted Answer

Hormones: Some women are prone to extra hair, which can be effected by hormones, pregnancy, polycsticovaet , etc. This area is easily treated with hair removal laser.

Question 7

how to remove upper lip hair for people with sensitive skin?

Accepted Answer

Ipl/laser: Removal with light/laser treatments is best as will remove permanently if do enough treatments. Waxing/plucking will always irritate skin and can cause scarring.

Question 8

i was recently  had an accident  on my bilke and skinned my upper lip, how long can it take to regrow the hair? if it does regrow.

Accepted Answer

Not long, but...: Depending on the severity of the injury, hair should not take long to regrow. It should start growing out in a few days for mild scrapes, and a week or so for moderate scrapes. If the scrape is pretty severe, the damage at the time of injury, the inflammation afterwards, and the whole healing process, might be to much for the little hair follicles... In which case the hair won't return.

Question 9

i have some unwanted hair on my upper lip and i was wondering if i were to get it waxed if it would grow back in darker or more thick?

Accepted Answer

No: You can wax or shave or pluck or laser. None of these will change the type of hairs or the growth.

Accepted Answer

Yes : There is a cream called hydroquinone that can help with facial discoloration. It is a prescription cream and may or may not be covered by insurance. It is not guaranteed to work and may take a long time but you could ask your doctor about it. Hope that helps!!
