For women everywhere the presence of facial hair can be a huge embarrassment. The desire for facial hair removal is so strong that women try almost any means that promises an end to this masculine feature. The following tips are meant to educate women about the safest and most effective means of removing unsightly facial hair.

There are several ways to remove facial hair in women including waxing, using a depilatory cream or bleaching. The easiest, least painful and most cost effective is to use a depilatory cream. This solution works by changing the chemical makeup of the hair at the skin line, making it easy to wipe away. While this is effective, it is not long lasting, usually needing to be repeated every three to five days. Be sure, when choosing this option to only use a cream that is formulated for the face, creams that are to be used on other parts of the body may cause irritation to the face.
-
Another temporary, but rather affective form of facial hair removal is waxing. Waxing consists of applying hot wax to the area where hair is to be removed. The wax is then pulled in the opposite direction of hair growth, taking the hair with it. This method of hair removal is expected to last four to six weeks for most people. One point of interest, when hair is removed via waxing, it tends to grow back lighter and finer than before. Be very careful when waxing as the wax can be hot enough to scald the skin.
-
Sugaring is becoming a popular alternative to waxing, which can cause redness and bumps on the skin. This method involves placing a syrup ball, made of sugar, water and lemon juice, onto the skin and then quickly striping it back off. The striping motion removes the hair by the root. Sugaring is also a good alternative for anyone who has had burned skin due to wax that was applied while it was too hot.
-
There are some women who do not like the idea of actually removing the hair from the face, the reasons for this fear are varied, they could have had a previously bad experience or have very sensitive faces. Whatever the reason, these women may be interested in bleaching. While bleaching is not an actual facial hair removal method, it does make the facial hair harder to see. It is an easy and quick procedure that lasts approximately three weeks.
-
Shaving is never recommended for facial hair removal in women. Shaving needs to be done on a daily basis and causes the hair to grow back darker and more course than before. While all of the other methods listed are equally acceptable for both men and women, shaving should only be attempted by a man.
