flowerchild - I'm sory about what you're going through, but I can relate. I have a lot of chin hair. However, I don't wax, I shave. I actually apply bikini zone after each shave and that seems to help minimize the bumps for me. I still get some of course, but not as many. I don't know if it will work as well for you since you're waxing, but it couldn't hurt to try. I tried tweezing a few years ago and it did horrible things to my skin. I had too many bumps to count and they were all infected. The bikini zone didn't help that, so I tried an aspirin mask. I actually just crushed up some regular old aspirin and mixed it with Bactine and applied that mixture to the area. It really helped me, but I realized after that that I cannot use any method that actually pulls the hair out by the root. My skin just doesn't respond well to that. As for the marks, I haven't found anything over the counter that helps with diminishing them at all. So for now I just use make up to cover as much as possible. I would like to eventually go to a dermatologist, but it's just not in the budget right now. So I do what I can at home to try to make it all a little less noticeable, but I certainly understand how discouraging it can be. I hope this has been of some help to you. |
