For many women, facial hair removal is a must. After all, facial hair, be it in the form of peach fuzz, mustaches and beards, are marks of maleness that absolutely has no place in a woman’s face. Unless, of course, you have the desire to become the next bearded lady of the circus.

Causes of Female Facial Hair

It must be emphasized that every female and male on the planet has some form of facial hair albeit in different degrees of lushness and lengths. Women, however, are not generally known to possess facial hair in abundance when compared to men.

And if the fashionably unthinkable does happen, many causes can be pinpointed. Women with uncommon amounts of facial hair may polycystic ovarian syndrome, or may be undergoing hormonal changes brought by menopause and medications, or may be suffering from hypothyroidism without them knowing it.

Often, the facial hair removal method used depends on the cause although general methods may also be applied. For example, if menopause has been pinpointed, taking birth control pills may do the trick.

Methods of Removal

Fortunately for women afflicted with facial hairs, there are many methods of removal available. Some of them require little by way of time and money while some of them will indeed be time-consuming and pocket-draining. Thus, choosing from among these options will often depend on how much time and money you can commit as well as the type of facial hair.

First, you can shave your facial hair. Although this is the least painful of all facial hair removal methods, you probably will not like the shadows and stubbles as well as minor cuts and ingrown hairs that it creates, which will give away the fact that you shave like a man.

Second, you can pluck wayward hairs with a pair of tweezers. Unless you have a relatively high level of pain tolerance, you may not like this method especially when you suffer the side effects of prominent nicks, irritation and redness on your skin.

Third, you may bleach your facial hair, which is probably one of the safest and easiest of methods. Well, of course, you don’t really remove your hair; the process just makes facial hair significantly less noticeable by making it closer in color to your skin tone. Do avoid this method of facial hair removal if and when allergic reactions set in.

Fourth, you can purchase depilatory creams that contain chemical substances formulated to dissolve hair follicles. You must use said creams according to label instructions since side effects like skin burns and allergies will be experienced. And if you are not one for chemical smells, then depilatory creams are not for you.

Fifth, you can visit a licensed dermatologist for laser and electrolysis treatments. These are relatively effective and permanent treatments for facial hair although you might want to dig deeper into your pockets and pain tolerance levels.

No matter which facial hair removal method seems applicable to you at first glance, always think through your options. Keep in mind that your face is almost always the first body part seen and, consequently, assessed. In this case, it may not be putting your best foot forward but putting your best face forward.
