I'm sick of my beard, I'm starting to look like Dumbledore

Just that really. I'm sick to death of plucking, waxing, bleaching, shaving and I can't use a Lumea thingy because 95% of the bristles not hairs, they're too coarse to be just hairs are white and the Lumea wouldn't work of them.

I've just ordered a pot of Frenesies Facial Hair Reduction Cream, which has cost A LOT, but I'm desperate enough to give it a go before resorting to electrolysis.

Has anyone else tried this cream?

S&B have had a few threads about this lately.

I’m sure you’ll get some great advice there. Just wanted to post to let you know help us out there.

Body hair is very unreasonable.

The hair on my head has become really thin and lifeless, yet my chin hair is thick and thriving. Oh and my lady moustache is so dark and lustrous that if they were still filming Magbum PI it could be a moustache double for Tom Selleck.

Oh not just you at all

It’s been the bane of my existence and I don’t have any solution as threading, waxing and plucking don’t help

I’m going to consider laser though as that seems to have worked for a few people I know - is that something that could work for you?

VanyaHargreeves · 03/12/2019 18:21

Not just you

Mine are mostly black

Again I've tried everything and really no option but to pluck

Will look at that cream.

@Meshy12, I contacted a laser place and they said that it wouldn't work as the hairs/bristles are white Sad

Electrolysis? I'm doing laser removal treatment at present and it's working really well, but the hairs are dark. Electrolysis would be my next step though...

@Liskee this is why I'm going to try the Frenesies first. Electrolysis is a last resort.

I wondered if anyone had tried the Frenesies?
