What's the best way to get rid of them, without going to a salon? It's not too dark but it's noticeable enough to annoy me. When I wax I get little dotty spotty bits that annoy me!
Help!!!

Epistick £1 ebay

It hurts like fuck the first time but is fine after that

GQT22 · 03/06/2017 22:01

I've seen this, it does look like torture. Is it quick enough with it being painful?

Isn't that Epistick just a different way of whipping the hairs out by their roots?

Wax is exactly the same.

Think it is. Maybe I just need to up my technique or pay for someone to do itHmm

Shave. Doesn't cause the hair to grow back faster/thicker (that's a myth). That's what I do - think I actually got the tip from mumsnet in the first place.

Yes, shave it. Takes 10 seconds.

Pay a little eyebrow and facial hair trimmer. Quick, easy and no risk of soreness. They are great for eyebrows.

Yeh I shave. Tried everything first cause I was scared of ending up like magnum pi but it shaving doesn't make it grow back thicker.

2 seconds in the shower every night. I couldn't get on with anything else-wax left me sore as did hair removal creams.

I got myself an electric shaver.
doesn't irritate my skin like removal cream and is quick.

Why not the salon, OP ?

I get eyebrows, upper lip and chin waxed for £ 15 and it takes less than 10 minutes which includes walking upstairs, sitting down, etc. I don't need my whole chin waxed but it's cheaper to have the whole package and she just does the bottom of my chin where I get the odd 'old lady' hair. No faffing. I don't go very often but probably should !

I use an eyebrow razor.

It's great.

GQT22 · 04/06/2017 19:51

I'm not sure tbh, saying that I was going to start getting my eyebrows done again. I'm a bit lazy at plucking them!
Maybe I should just do it haha!
