Anyone else got a fluffy (hairy) face?🤨

My cheeks are quite “fluffy” with soft blonde hair - it’s never bothered me but since menopause “got” me, it’s become more noticeable.
My hairdresser commented on it and offered to remove it - my skin looks better and my make-up sits better with it gone. Should I continue to remove it? What do others do? Remove or ignore?
Advice/suggestions please

Have this and under 30! Sides of face and down neck 😳😳

Dark hairs on chin and side of face- tweezers always at hand!

Feel your pain but do what youre comfortable with!

Peach fuzz
All over.
Try the lillibeth brow shaped
YouTube has a few videos on peach fuzz removal. You’ll have to do it regularly but it definitely smoothes the skin out and makes it look better

It’s a soft peachy fluff, always had it ( and a small patch at the bottom of my back) but its def. got more obvious , could be the blessed HRT? Anyway my makeup looked better and stayed in place longer so I think we could be staying fluff-free for a while yet!
Seem to do nothing other than remove bloody hair lately... going to ask for a lawnmower for Christmas!!😡

May be controversial but I bought a face razor on eBay. It does the job for me!

Been getting my full face threaded for years (I'm 35) have to tweeze out 2 massive black pube like hairs from my neck every 4 weeks too Confused

bornonasunday · 01/10/2019 20:19

Could also grow my own pants and trousers within a week, since damn menopause started ... but that’s a whole new story😆
Mother Nature certainly has the last laugh!

It used to be my lip but my chin is so much worse now. Literally every 3 days before I get growth, leave it 3 weeks and I've basically got a beard.

I've bought everything, cheap and expensive and to be honest tweezers are the most reliable thing I've used.

randominternetperson · 01/10/2019 20:31

I am fluffy of face too (no black hairs yet thankfully though I'm not quite at menopause stage so I'm sure I'll get those too when the time comes)
I get regular dermaplaning, my make up and moisturisers go on like a dream after it!

Wax.

bornonasunday · 01/10/2019 20:58

Oooh! Don’t think I could cope with waxing😱

Epilator and tweezers - painful at first but sooooooo satisfying when you manage to eek out a stubborn oneGrin

Thanks Vaggiemight, I’ll have a look at this. And thanks to all posters, glad it’s not just me being a furry face!! Make-up does look so much better, someone at work even commented on it today😀 Funny how I’ve been furry all theses years and not been bothered by it, but now I look like Winnie the bloody Pooh😡 Menopause, Menopause GO AWAY!!
