Ok, 2 major hairy places to worry about on my face. I have hair on the sides of my face. It is in the aprox. 1inch space along the sides of my face under where your side burns would be, down to the corner of my jawbone. It has always been blonde and just a little BUT, is getting darker and thicker. ANYONE ELSE HAVE THIS? Also, under my chin. Not a bunch on my chin but under it, like between my chin and neck. I have waxed it once down there and is starting to come back. I was thinking about electrolysis but am scared it will hurt. I am a huge baby when it comes to pain but am ready for this hair to go away.

Hey yeah i had this too not so bad on my chin/neck area but DISGUSTINGLY BAD on my sides! i had it lasered...well IPL is the actual term intense light pulse or something it did wonders. had it done 2 years ago now and never had to touch it again!
Before i had tried everything from waxing/shaving threading to bleaching!(which was the worse as in the light it shows so bad!)
With the IPL it doesnt actually hurt it was just a little tingly feeling when the machine is placed on the skin so i would recommend it if your worried about pain!

I have horrible "side burns" just like you describe down to my jawbone and now it is starting to be on my cheeks and I have the "whiskers" on my chin and I have upper lip hair. I wax every 1-2 weeks and the hair has gotten darker and more coarse over the past 1 1/2-2 years. I hate it...I would love to get laser, but I think it is expensive and doesn't always work the first time.

i think many of us have that problem but dont do electrolysis it hurts alot and its not meant for large areas because they have to zap each hair follicle.thats alot of zapping plus it left me some scars

I'm so paranoid about starting to do any of these. My worst area is upper lip, but sides of face(sideburns) is starting to get annoying. I'm afraid if I start waxing it's something I won't want to commit too. But the bleaching is obvious as pp said, and I'm having to do it much more frequently.
COnsidering IPL, but for those that wax, how noticeable is it after a week or two?
Thanks

The trouble is that however quickly or slowly it grows back, you've got to let it grow out long enough for the wax to grip before you can wax it again. You're probably able to hide your sideburns without too much difficulty, but you won't be able to hide your moustache during that period.
I have the same type of hair problem. i take spironolactone and use the vaniqa creme but neither seems to be helping much.
I shave every other day. It's a struggle for me, because shaving my face makes me feel very "unwomanly" but I can't afford laser treatments right now because of school.

waxing is good on light hairs as even when its growing back it doesnt show that well..but it is quiet noticable on the upper lip after a week! however am so used to it now i dont care weather people see me and think oh my god man lady! hehe! its only a wk and then its off again!(i wax my upper lip every other wk! which i dont think is that bad.
