Hi
I have noticed only just recently that the hair on my upper lip area is becoming increasingly noticeable. The hair is still soft.
I am dark haired and have a mediteranean skin tone.
Have never done anything to it before so looking for the best way to remedy this.
Would not think bleach is the way to go because of my colouring?
Has anyone waxed this area, or whatever and what were the results and the aftergrowth like?

Thanks
I really need to tackle it this week!

I use these types of things. And find them brilliant (Ah the joys of hitting 40 ). You can buy them or similar in Boots too but I've been using them for about 5 months now and think they're brilliant.

Never heard of that - can you really use it on your bikini line like is says?

What about your skin though, does it leave it red or/and itchy.
Is it suitable for sinsitive skin?

Yup, you can use them anywhere. Bikini line is only possible if you trim well first or only have a little bit of regrowth.
I have very very sensitive skin and I've never had any kind of problem on my face using it. I am extremely fair skinned but very dark haired (and my hair is extremely thick - I have some very nasty ones on my chin since hitting 40). I've never had any kind of itching or redness.
You need virtually no pressure on the skin - the less the better to be honest - and it really does whip the hair away in seconds and it's totally painless.

My friend is olive skinned and bleaches the hair. It's worth a try. If it goes wrong, you could always just wax it off.
