Have you had it done? Any unwanted side effects? Was your skin lovely afterwards? What's it like when the peach fuzz grows back? Is it something you have to keep doing and how often?

It was lovely and then it broke me out significantly all around the jawline, which has scarred Hmm. Skin looked gorgeous when I had it done though, taking off the callous hairs makes you glow and the skin feel so smooth. Makeup goes on easier.

I havent found it grew back thicker but it does grow back in fairly quickly and you can start to feel it- nothing like stubble but definitely some texture.

I wish it worked for me but never again. I've done it twice and my jawline is still in a state with lumps and marks months later. It was fine before.

Loved the effect but it made the skin around my mouth go super sensitive, was the strangest sensation ever! Lasted for ages until the hair grew back!
And personally I felt it made more hair grow back, but not sure if it was just more noticeable ....
Was weird having prickly hairs!

I'm too scared to do it again now 🙈🙈

I do use the thing I used when I'm shaping my eyebrows tho so works for that haha

I bought some facial razors from amazon and do it myself rather than go to a salon. Once you get started it's addictive and I couldn't believe how much hair I was getting offShock
My makeup looks very smooth on and it apparently makes your skincare sink in better? Not that I can say I've noticed particularly but I do think I have a glow a few days after doing it.
I've been lucky I haven't broke out in spots even though I am prone to spots even in my 30s.

Forgot to say in terms of regrowth, mine grows back quick and within 10 days I could go at it again (I don't - I do it about every 3/4 weeks.) You can definitely feel it growing back almost like a soft stubble but it doesn't grow back and darker or thicker imo

I had the same experience as @dontgobaconmyheart - felt great when it was done but my jawline has never been the same again, regular pimples and scarring from the pimples where I didn’t ever gets spots before. The hair has grown back prickly and darker so I really do not know what possessed me to essentially have my face shaved!
