Upper Lip

Hey guys I've been waxing my upper lip for quite a while now but it always seems to grow back in less than 1 1/2 weeks and I'm really struggling. If anyone can tell me why or what to do that would honestly help me so much and make me feel so much better. so please drop some suggestions xx

Bump. I'd like to know this too.

I've tried hair removing cream (quick regrowth), threading (lasts about 2 weeks) and electrolysis (years ago, very expensive and made little difference after two years of regular sessions).
I now use my Epilady, very quick and easy about every two/three weeks. Occasionally need to tweezer the odd hair and I do use a facial scrub regularly to prevent ingrowing hairs.

I used to wax my top lip and chin and then had laser treatment about 10 yrs ago. They told me then it wouldn't last forever. I still have plenty of dark hairs now but it is definitely more sparse that it used to me. Although there are plenty of thick dark hairs... I have it threaded which lasts 1.5/2 weeks but I'm saving up to have top up laser treatment

I'm having good results with a Philips lumea. I don't shave it I just let the hair frazzle, every couple of weeks and the growth is noticeably lighter, in fact I don't need to thread or wax now. I am pale and have a luxuriant black 'tache though!
