Hair between top lip and nose

I have just discovered I have black hair above between my top lip and my nose. I am really panicking about this. My mum says it just looks like i have not washed my face so it isnt that bad but bad enough to lower my confidence. Is there any way I can get rid of it? I don't want to shave it off because of the re-growth and I can not dye it coz i have really sensitive skin. Is there any other way? Help! :frown:

Hair removal cream.....works just like it does for a bikini line, no drama :smile:

Although....you do have to paint a white 'tach on yourself for about 5-10mins, so I woudn't let alone see you, wee bit embarrassing.

Moustaches are all the range nowadays among young troubled women!

You can use hair lightening cream which kind of bleaches the hair. People use it for arms, eyebrows etc as well as face hair. Plucking or hair removal creams are probably not a good idea as it'll always grow back thicker.

if you can afford it, laser it! Depending on the thickness, you only need go 3 times (maybe a couple more to finish it off) and more or less its gone..! simple! yet a tad bit expensive.

Wax it off - that's what most women do

wax it! bleach it!
tie it in a bow and plait it!

Are you sure it's obvoise enough for people to notice?

Pluck it or cream it. I don't know much about the creaming thing.... don't do plucking hairs either to be honest... heh. Don't shave it though, it'll grow back twice as bad.

Most asian girls thread it off
Its relatively painful, and needs to be done every 3 weeks, and then after a while, the growth is less.
Its a common problem but nothing to worry about!
