Today, I decided to use an at-home waxing kit for the first time to get rid of the hair on my upper lip. After experiencing the trauma of waxing, I fell asleep. A few hours later, I woke up to see that I now have acne everywhere I had waxed. I have an acne mustache. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Same thing different taste
Today, I had my back waxed to deal with the uncontrollable hair growth. Afterwards, I broke out in numerous pimples where the hair used to be. Basically, a lose-lose situation. FML
Today, I realized that my boyfriend really does have a problem with my upper-lip hair. I woke up this morning to him ripping a wax strip off of my face. All he could say after I stopped shrieking was that he had hoped it wouldn't wake me up. FML
Nair do well
Today, I wanted to look really good for my date. I was a little self-conscious, so I decided to use Nair on my upper lip just in case I had a female mustache. Unfortunately, it turns out I'm allergic to Nair. Now I DO have a mustache. A rash mustache. FML
Today, I tried to bleach my upper lip hair. I now have a bright red mustache. FML
Today, I waxed my upper lip hair. My boyfriend later told me that he missed my mustache rubbing onto his. FML
Today, I decided to wax my own eyebrows with a Do It Yourself kit from the pharmacy. I'm now missing half of my right eyebrow. FML
Today, I wanted to remove my mustache hair with hot wax. The hair is still there, but my skin is all burnt dark brown. Tomorrow is my first day at school. FML
Today, I decided to wax my eyebrows. My entire eyebrow came off. FML
Today, I went to the hair salon to cut 6 inches off my hair. When I got there, I decided to get my upper lip waxed for the first time. When my boyfriend came to pick me up for our date, I asked if he noticed anything different about me, the first thing he said was, "I see you got rid of your mustache." FML
Today, I was getting my chest waxed. The woman dipped the stick into the wax and hit her elbow, making wax fall into my eyes. FML

Why not just shave?

not necessarily. I know girls who shave there and they're fine.

It give horrible results for most women.

The more you shave the thicker the hair gets because of the stimulation of the razor. Waxing pulls it out from the root which will eventually make it dissappear. Think this hairy lady might just be a bit allergic to the wax. Try tweezers next time sweetheart..takes more time but you'll be zit free hopefully.

36= it doesn't make it grow back thicker, it just looks that way because when the hair starts growing back it's blunt and has not been exposed to the sun and possibly lightened.

If you're careful with shaving then you should be fine.

So your beard grew out thick and awesome for the first year or so? No shaving made it thicker? How cool are you omggg

#46, most people start shaving the second their hair grows in. It's not going to be nearly as thick as it will eventually be for another few years, so it gives the illusion that shaving made it happen. The hair also no longer has the natural tapered end that a fresh hair does. It's the most incorrect old wives tail, and if it were really true, your leg hair would be as thick as tree trunks right now.

I've always shaved my upper lip and had no bad results. Everyone's different though I guess

Epilator. Removes from the root, quicker than tweezing. Hurts on we sensitive areas though. Removing the hair from the root can over time weaken the follicle leading to a semipermanent or permanent reduction in hair too.

That epilator thing hurts like a bitch. I'd rather look like cousin it.

If waxing isn't for you I suggest going conchita wurst style.

that happens to me sometimes you have to make sure you pit this type of oil or lotion on after your done waxing off your hair or you will break out
