I am an asian girl so my hair shows up black. this makes my mustache very obvious and gross. i know that shaving it makes it grow back faster and thicker so i can't do that! what can i do to get rid of it?

-plucking? does this make it grow back faster or thicker? this method hurts and isn't very efficient. they still grow back.
-waxing? i heard this is dangerous. can it be done at home? does hair grow back faster or thicker?
-bleaching? i heard this is dangerous too. can it be done at home?
WHAT ELSE?>

I wouldn't reccomend plucking. Not efficient at all!
Waxing can be done, and yes, it's kinda painful, especially in that area. This is a good method however. Gets rid of all of the hair quickly and will stay away longer.
Bleaching is also a good method, but it depends on how thick your hair is. Seeing as how you are asian, I wouldnt reccomend it. It's just going to look like a blonde mustache. Ethnic hair is thicker and sometimes harder to dye.
You absolute best method is lazer hair removal. It is expensive, but will permantely remove the hair. But if you think about how much you are going to spend on waxing and bleaching in your lifetime, it may be cheaper in the long run.
Good luck hun!

WOW. Um . Shaving dosent make it grow back faster or thicker. Thats a rediculous myth. If that were true every balding guy would shave his head. How about all of the above. Plucking, Bleaching, and Waxing.

If those are dark, use bleach to fade the color. If those are big size use trimmer like "Finishing Touch". If those are a lot, use hair removing cream to disappear those. If those are thick use tweezers to pluck those off. You can do any of those above mentioned at home and safely. Waxing can be done, but should seek professional help. Otherwise there are electrolysis and laser therapy too to remove those professionally for ever, but very costly :) Hope the info will help you!

No heat wax strips aren't dangerous. Still painful as waxing goes.
It will grow back, no thicker or courser than before. Bleaching only seems to work if you have minimal hair. If you've got alot of hair it still shows just blond. And in your case maybe reddish, because dark hair doesn't always lighten easily. The only way to get rid of it permanently is laser hair removal which is expensive and time consuming. Though you may find that worth it.

Waxing is the best. It lasts longer and is less painful than plucking. Its not dangerous unless the wax is to hot. I'd go to a salon and get it done. It costs usually around $8-$10. They do have at home waxing kits as well. Good luck

I like waxing and have never found it dangerous. There are fairly low cost but effective wax strips that can be used at home - just be sure to have baby oil on hand to clean away excess wax.

Everything that you mentioned will work just fine. Plucking will take a while tho, I wouldn't suggest that. Waxing will work great, but if its not too thick, do the bleaching.

You can use those personal shavers. They carry them lots of places, but you can even go to walmart. They will say for your face, or even bikini areas. Just look where the razors are. And don't worry its not really a razor blade, more like a trimmer. But works great! Fast and easy. By the way don't bleach, just my opinion. I tempted it..and to be honest when the sun hits its like "here i am!" Hope that helps :)
