How do you hide your mustache when you're a woman?

Question

I'm trying to do a makeover on my friend but she has a mustache like she's on puberty. How do we fix it and make sure it doesn't come back and make it look like she didn't have one?

Please be specific like on how to wax, bleach, or any other ideas. Thank You!!!

Answer 1

If there's not too much of it, do you really need to do anything? Most guys are OK about women with, for example, a slight moustache.

If you do decide you have to do something, then there isn't a simple answer.

Facial (and also body) hair on women comes about in the same way as on men because of

1) your body being sensitized, before you were even born, to testosterone -- doesn't happen to all girls, but does to many

2) your body producing high levels of testosterone

The growth rate and coarseness of the hair depends on just how much testosterone is circulating in your bloodstream.

Steer clear of bleaching -- when someone sees you against the light you'll look as if you have a glowing moustache and/or beard.

As far as removing it is concerned it's worth remembering that

* Waxing, plucking, threading, epilating all pull the hair out by the roots and where the growth is hormonally-driven can actually stimulate a dormant follicle into producing more hair quicker. They also distort the root if done repeatedly, leading to hair growing at strange angles. And you've got to let the hair grow to quite a length before you can repeat the exercise. It can also damage the skin and discolor it. Long-term use of waxing also causes bad wrinkles.

* Chemical depilatories strong enough to remove the hair are very likely to burn the skin, cause swelling and cause long-term discoloration of the skin.

* Laser is also liable to cause burning and discoloration and in any case only works effectively on a dark hair/light skin combinantion.

* Electrolysis is very liable to cause scarring and discoloration of the skin.

Which, like it or not, leaves shaving which does not damage the skin. Best done with a men's-style electric razor, the best of which, for women, are probably those from the men's range of Norelco razors (Philishave outside the US). Most women who try a men's Norelco wonder why nobody ever told them about it before.

You can't hide it. The only other option is to remove it. You can use the new threader eze-tweeze which is not as painful as waxing. Don't bleach because it can still be seen except that it will be white! And don't shave it off or use chemicals in case they damage her skin. Check out this website for more info.

Depends on how darkish your mustache is .. and what sort of hair you have got for your lip . and it additionally will depend on what makeup you utilize .. a few foundations / coverups do not disguise the whole thing you desire to cover .. buh i propose you uhh wax , or shave ( in case your a man ) , or check out laser remedy .. so we can eliminate it for well . well success , and do not use makeup ( you are gonna get fairly embarrassed if any person unearths out .. or see's that your dressed in makeup to hide up a mustache .. Hope i helped = )

easiest and cheapest is to shave with electric shaver. i do not recommend nair. I have very sensitive skin and this product burned me and left scabs. very harsh chemical. I tried waxing, liked the results, but couldn't handle the pain.

recently had it lasered off. best thing I ever did. tho quite expensive.
