Excessive facial hair growth especially to women is both frustrating and depressing. It does not only grab confidence from most women but it is also a lot of money that is being spent for the treatments to remove excess hair permanently. However, there are always alternatives other than the expensive electrolysis, laser hair removal, and irritation depilatory creams.

Natural female facial hair removal methods are now spreading and have even been praised for its non-irritating and inexpensive form of hair removal remedy. Two of the easiest and most natural ways are waxing and plucking. Another one is termed as facial sugaring which can be made by heating sugar and lemon juice together then with the aid of cornstarch, applied to the hair then immediately pulled away against the direction of the hair growth. Painful as it is, it can also give soft, moisturized and smooth skin. You can also buy a ready made natural sugar mixture like MOOM Organic Hair Removal Kit which is available in any supermarket. Bleaching creams are also an option.

However, make sure you try a 24 hour patch test first to check for any skin irritation before buying a product. Lemon is one natural bleacher. Using lemon with honey everyday can result in visible changes in your hair. When bleached, facial hair becomes lightened in color and breaks off in the long run. One reason of excessive facial growth is due to high levels of testosterone. Lowering down testosterone using the all natural spearmint tea can also significantly lessen the growth of the hair. On one hand, make sure to try and test out products first before applying it on your face to avoid skin burns and irritation.

Unlike some men, who relish a bushy beard or a fashionable mustache, most women do not want to make decisions about styling facial hair. In fact, they do not want to think about it at all. Lip, chin, or cheek fuzziness is not considered a female attribute in our society, which is why many cosmetic manufacturers ardently work to create useful hair removal products. These can vary from sharp razors to soft creams, but all have the same goal of trying to remove hair shafts and follicles that grow in unwanted places on the female face.

Pluck out unwanted hair with tweezers. Since females use tweezers to shape their eyebrows and sometimes remove unwanted nose hair, they also may try to pull out those fine, dark hairs over the top lip or sprouting on the chin. Sometimes they explore around the ear area, too, in search of fine hair growing downward as though to simulate a shadowy beard. These are hard to grasp individually, so tweezers work best for individual long hairs or those that can be more readily visualized around the lips.

Try a depilatory cream. By following the product directions carefully, you can get rid of visible unwanted facial hair in most areas. Just be careful about using these products around the eyes. You may have to apply the cream over several days’ or weeks’ time to see consistent results. Experiment with hair bleaching products. If you can’t remove the hair or don’t like the idea of peach fuzz or stubble, you can try a bleaching cream, though you may have to experiment on small, hidden areas of your face first to be sure you don’t lighten too much the areas where the hair is located. As with other chemical products, be careful when using it around the eyes on the brow areas.

Sharpen your razor. Use a steel or plastic razor, preferably one made for women, to scrape away surface hairs around the mouth, on the chin, and over the cheeks. The down side to this method is you may have to keep doing it, since a razor doesn’t get at the hair follicle, which will continue to grow. You also may feel a light stubble if you have a lot of facial hair that needs to be removed, as some women with special conditions do. Cover it with cosmetics. If all else fails, apply enough natural-looking foundation to cover any mild hair growth so others can’t see it. You also can get electrolysis for hair removal, which may be permanent or require repeat visits. Contact a local doctor or a plastic surgeon for more information, or visit online websites for details.
