so, i am 17 and i have been shaving my beard and moustace for 1 year...
but i dont like it now, because the hair is thicker and grows faster... i have to shave 2-3 times a week and i dont want to... I'm only 17!!! my father shaves 3 times a week!!!... but i took out some hair with a pincers... and i saw that it grows back much slower, and less thicker...
q: do u think that using my mothers epilator on my face, could damage my skin???

using shaver will definitely cause the hair grow faster and coarser.. try to use pincer, the best method (if you have time).. my bf does that, and he has a very smooth skin...

The epilator is not recommended for facial hair - unless it is one that is specifically for facial hair - there are a few out there that are specified for that. However, there are some other hair removal products for facial hair. Such as Nair, again - make sure it is for facial hair only. There is also waxing - fairly painful, but possible. I will say that most facial hair removal systems are typically for females - I've never known a male who used them. But I would think that anything that a woman could use would be safe for a male. Other than that, I would recommend that you see your doctor about further steps. However, I would wonder if you really wanted to mess with your facial hair as later you may change your mind and decide to grow a beard or moustache. I can't say what using these products would do to later hair growth. Good luck.

i dun think u should use the epilator as it will make ur pore bigger, and the reason it grow slower is that it pluck ur root off,u r still having puberty i assume so it natural to have ur hair growing fast as it will slow down as u get older, well, this it what i think.

Not sure about the epliator.. but I would not risk it. Just to make you fell better I had to start shaving when I was 14, and daily...

I don't think you should do that since the hair in your beard might be far apart from each other when you're older.

if you have a problem with razor rash i would not do it. i recomend if it makes your skin break out when you shave neutragena razor defence shave gel and a good sharp razor.

Can you get to a skin doctor to talk about this?
Anything you do on your own could make things worse.
