The black hair on my chin is growing so fast..It's like I have to shave everyday. Is there anything I can take to slow it down

Can you up your dose of Met?

I was on Gluc XR 1000mg and my chin hairs slowed down so much that I could almost skip a day of shaving (that's a lot for me, I usually have a 5 o' clock shadow.)

I had to go off the gluc though and it's worse than ever now.

I do a combination of an over the counter hair reducing lotion (I think mine is Jerkins, not sure), and plucking instead of shaving. I still have to do some touchups every day, but only a major plucking every several days.

Vaniqa creme will slow it down.....but it must be used daily or the hair comes back. Learn more about it at www.Vaniqa.com
