Suggestion: You might try removal creams or shaving. Laser may give longer result.

Hair removal : Shaving is an option and will not make the hairs grow back thicker . Laser hair removal is an investment and requires multiple treatments but is effective for reducing dark hairs.

Other people say I mumble, however in my head I'm speaking at the same volume as them. I had to get ear wax removed as a kid, and feel I have a lot in my ears still. Would getting more removed help my volume when speaking?
