Best hair removing cream for chin hair.

I only had my chin waxed two weeks ago and they are coming back already. I cant keep having the skin on my face pulled by waxing and cant afford to commit to threading. Is Veet cream ok to use on the chin? Does anyone else use a cream to do this?

Buy some wax strips to do it yourself in between salon waxes to keep the stragglers at bay? They are in my local Poundland store.

I use tweezers, and have done for 25 years. I can't use wax as they have to grow too long before it works!

How many hairs? I just remove them with tweezers as they appear. But I only get 3 wire-like ones.

A few on my chin spread out across an area. I will pop into Superdrug again (im in there a lot and have a loyalty card) and get some hair removing cream or wax strips from there.

Don't use hair removal cream! Once as a teenager I used hair removal cream to do my eyebrows (what a lazy girl!) and the after effect was horrendous. Everywhere the cream had been turned out like a rash! I took a full week off school. I couldn't leave the house it was so bad! Wax or tweezers for sure

Ooh they are so annoying, I get 2-3 , they just appear from smooth skin then I can't stop touching until I get tweezers on them.

I use the Tweezerman pointed end ones, if the tweezers aren't 100% they can snap the hair which IME gives rise to a spot.

This what you need! Does one hair at a time and is as close to permanent as you'll get....until they invent something that really is permanently 'permanent' gr.pn/2vjC7vs
