When I had mine done it was costing around $40 and was lasting 2 full weeks, thats when a few hairs would show back up. I had to have it done every 3-4 weeks.
I only did that professionally once, but it was too expensive, so I bought waxing stuff for home. The question is, what is your skin color and hair color? See, I have an exhausting regimine when I waxed. I have very fair skin, but coarse, black facial hair. And when you wax, you have to let the hair grow back to a certain length, and that's just not acceptable for me! So I would bleach the hair that was growing back, I'd have to do this every other day until the hair was long enough to wax, then I'd wax. But the bleaching of course means lots of reflection from the sun, so I had a blonde beard instead of black--not that much better. It wasn't so bad when I lived up north (I could hide under turtlenecks and scarves in the fall/winter/spring months), but I moved to Florida and that option was out!
Try waxing, but just be aware of what that entails. From what I've seen on these posts, it seems to me most women shave. I know, it's horrible and manly, but it's the cheapest and best way most of us have found. Good luck.

You're right about that -- and a glowing blonde beard when it's seen against the sun is very obvious.

I don't know that it's most, but certainly a great many of us shave.

I'm sure all of us who shave have felt that way at some point. I know I certainly did when I first started shaving as a teenager. Especially when I began shaving every day. Of course at that point I would have loved to be feminine -- but how could I feel feminine when I had to shave every day like a man and when I didn't have proper breasts either? But what I eventually came to realize is that you don't need to be feminine to be a success as a woman. I've got a great husband who I've been married to for well over 30 years. I've got kids. Lots of the much more feminine girls I was in high school with don't have kids at all. Some of them have never been married. Very few of them have been married to the same guy for 30 years +. I've still got a great physical relationship with my DH -- very few of them seem to have much of a physical relationship now.

I think the thing is that if one has just a very light growth of hair, then there may be several ways of dealing with it. However, for those of us whose facial hair growth is little, if any, different from that of a male, and especially if our hormones are outwith the normal female range and possibly even in the normal male range, then the chances are that we're unlikely to find a better answer than shaving. If there were one, probably would be used by most men, whereas the reality is that most men shave.
thanks for the advice ladies! my skin and dark is quite dark, i really dont want to start shaving at the moment i use hair removing cream every other day and thats going okay i guess ill have to think about the waxing
