Bleach upper lip hair????

Question

Answer 1

yes i bleach my upper lip & know of many people that also do it, and they think its fab, it doesn't hurt like waxing or any other removal, and it lasts for ages. good luck.

Answer 2

I reckon this is one you want to think through very carefully, because it's very easy to make things worse rather than better.

* Is it really necessary to do anything at all?
Will anyone else notice it?
If they do, is it really unattractive? It can look very natural

* If you bleach it, you can end up with a glowing blonde moustache which really shows up when you're seen against the light. It's far more obvious than fine dark hair in those circumstances.

* If you wax or pluck it, you should remember that it's an area that responds to hormonal stimulation and that plucking or waxing can actually strengthen or stimulate moustache growth.

* Depilatories can burn the skin quite badly -- after all, skin and hair are very similar in composition and what destroys one is very likely to damage the other.

* Laser can actually get rid of your moustache permanently if you get the hair while it's still very fine and if the hair is dark and your skin very fair. But it can also damage your skin.

* Electrolysis can also get rid of your moustache permanently if you get the hair while it's still fine, but there's a considerable risk of scarring or distortion of the upper lip.

* Shaving is the last thing most people would think of, but if you use a men's-style electric razor it's the least damaging way of removing hair.

Probably the best answer, unless you've got a full-blown moustache, is to do absolutely nothing.

If your hair is naturally dark, then a light growth on your upper lip is perfectly normal, expected and often considered rather attractive. On the other hand, an obviously-bleached growth, or an absence of any hair at all on the upper lip, is liable to lead to a suspicion that you have a real problem with moustache growth, which is the last thing you want people to think.

Answer 3

There's a really good product called jolen that you can get its a cream bleach works really well, I use it because i have the same problem and don't want to wax cause it isn't a big problem.

Answer 4

i say wax it. bc sometimes depending how dark the hair is and you bleach it, it might turn a yellow instead of almost clear. Then the hair is more noticeable than if you never touched it.

Answer 5

Pay close attention to the directions. If you don't you could irritate you skin and look like you have a kool-aide mustache for a few days. Then EVERYONE would notice!

Answer 6

if you think its not very prominent then just do bleach.coz once you start waxing, you have to continue. Unless you plan to go for laser..............................
