Threading, tweezing and shaving have been around for many years. Tweezing refers to plucking out the hair one by one using a tweezer. Tweezing facial hair takes time and lots of patience.

Waxing caught on with crowd in the recent times and is highly sought after for facial, especially upper lip hair removal. The method is simple and the wax is affordable.

Everything you NEVER … I mean EVER … wanted to know about body hair removal products!

With science’s great inventions … we can launch a spaceship to land on moon but we cannot control the growth of hair!

There are three primary types of products that are used to remove hair. The first is a depilatory, the second is wax, and the third is a tweezers. Arguably the tweezers could be called a tool and not a product, but considering how limited our options are, I will call it a product for the sake of argument.

A depilatory is generally a topical cream, ointment, or lotion that is applied to the area with hair for a prescribed period of time (normally between three and ten minutes). After the application time, a warm moist washcloth is used to wipe in the direction of hair growth where the depilatory has been applied, and the hair is then removed. Depilatories generally remove the hair at the surface (not at the bulb) and therefore noticeable hair growth occurs in a relatively short period of time after using the depilatory. Depilatories contain various chemicals and can cause an allergic reaction, even if previously used with success. Therefore, it is recommended that they are tested on a small area each time before fulling lathering them on the area in which hair is to be removed, so that any potential allergic reactions are minimized. Depilatories can be purchased at most department stores and drug stores for a reasonable price.

The second product commonly used to remove hair is wax. What does wax do? It allows you to pull, by the roots, large number of hairs at once … that a tweezer alone cannot yank out in one chunk! It is the most painful way to remove hair, but the pain is also very short-lived as a temporary stinging sensation. Wax is generally heated, then carefully applied to the area to which the hair should be removed, and then with the use of a special “strip” the wax is pulled off after briefly cooling, which removes the hair underneath it. In order for the wax to work properly, the hair must be grown out long enough for the wax to adhere to it, and short enough that it isn’t “bunched up” within the wax. Generally 1/4″ hair is desirable for a good wax. Compounds are made to both remove residual wax and also to provide a cooling sensation to the area that was just waxed, thus taking away the sting. If you have very thin or sensitive skin you may have a raised red area … similar to a welt, though not as severe, after having an area waxed. Wax generally

The do it yourself most economically best hair removal
1 Wax

Do not use sugar wax which is soft and very hard to use. Use the microwaveable wax that is rock hard when cold. If not sure, open the package and check that it is a very hard wax. If do not wish to open packaging at the store then make sure is says the word ‘hard’ or ‘microwaveable’ on the package. Brand names include ‘Nair Hair Removal
2 Tweezers

High quality tweezers are expensive and this precision tool should be not abused. Tweezers must be cared for in order to do the delicate job on your face. The tips need to be perfectly aligned to grab the hair without fail for quick work. After waxing, use the tweezers to touch up afterwards or in between waxings. Waxing very coarse hairs do not pull the hair out all the way sometimes. Waxing before tweezing makes the hair slip right out. Without waxing, tweezing will break off with the root still in – that’s just as bad as shaving.

There are many tip styles for tweezers; pointed, rounded, slant, straight and tong. Tweezers can be gold or nickel plated. A stoned tipped tweezer has ceramic tips for better gripping for a very sure grip on the hair. An automatic tweezer is when the tweezer retracts while the handle are squeezed and should not be confused with epilators, which is a tiny spring that turns quickly. There is even a tweezer with a LED light on it.

3 Depilatories

Hair on the upper lip on a woman’s face could destroy the whole image. There are various ways though to get rid of it.
It usually depends on the person itself and how well you can handle pain and what results you expect.
By bleaching it what you can achieve is to make the hair stronger and it looks so but so ugly especially if it’s a proper moustache.
You can try the tweezer to remove the excess hair but you need lots and lots of patience.

You can also try the facial hair removers which are as bad as shaving your face. Hair will be there within two days. (By the way, NEVER EVER try to shave your face)
The best solution is the laser but it’s expensive. If you can afford it, go for it.You get permanent results.
The second best solution is electrolysis. It is not as expensive as the laser and you get permanent results as well but it has two negative things. One is that it hurts so much, especially on the upper lip and the second is that it for a session of 15-20 minutes you pay quite a lot.
The third solution is the one that most women prefer.
Why? Because it’s not that expensive and you get results for more than one week. Waxing. But only from experienced proffesionals.
Don’t try to do it yourself. The bad is that it also hurts but it’s only for a few seconds. You can waxing twice a month and you get hairless, smooth upper lip in a low cost.Plus that time after time your hair on the upper lip grow weaker.
