Amazon.com: Nad's Hypoallergenic Facial Wax Strips, 24 strips (Pack of 2): Beauty

I don't wax my face at all, I feel blessed as I don't have the slightest hint of facial hair and don't pluck eyebrows either. However, I haven't shaved my legs since the age of 16, and since Nad's makes good products I recommend them. I use the kind that comes in a jar with cloth strips, but again, just the legs. I used to use Sally Hansen cold wax hair remover before Nad's.

There is no heating involved, so it's fairly painless and the results last about 6-8 weeks.

Look into Dermaplaning. I get it done and LOVE it.

I bought Olay's hair removal kit at the drug store. Worked perfectly, no pain.

Laser only works on dark hair. So for light peach fuzz try waxing at a spa. I have the light peach fuzz on my cheeks and was thinking about going for threading. But every time I let my peach fuzz grow in, I wax it off again as I can't stand it. But the waxing makes me break out a few days later. Has anyone had threading done for peach fuzz? I would like to know if that really works.

wax.. (professional).. you can get it cheap done at walmart or a nail shop ($5-10 since its just your face).. why wax? wax maybe a bit painful initially but hair grows back thinner and takes longer to grow back.. over time it will take longer and longer and grow back finer and finer

It isn't glamourous, but... I have great results, and no nicks, just using a plain pink daisy razor every morning.

I have no interest in using expensive creams on my face, due to possible harsh chemicals.

Electric epi hair removal sticks cost a pretty penny, and have to be used for quite a while to stop regrowth. And they feel like a pinch with each hair root, and they also don't prevent new hair growth from happening... so you're never really finished with electrolysis tools.

I'll stick with the straight razor.

Yeah. I just use my Cleo Shaver. Can go directly against the skin, and it never cuts. I use that for facial, and pits. Works great.

Go for the threading. No chemicals or risk of burning which happened with the wax. For in-between intervals I use a battery operated eyebrow / nose hair trimmer. I leave that in the car so when I am in traffic at at stop sign I can see ery clearly! I swear by the threading but it will leave you a bit red in patches: the next day I look 5 years younger. Costs about $25.
