A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

Today, I waxed my upper lip hair. My boyfriend later told me that he missed my mustache rubbing onto his. FML

Today, I attempted to bleach my body hair so I wouldn't have to shave. A little while later, I realized that I'd also succeeded in bleaching my skin, which was incredibly noticeable. I'm hosting a pool party this weekend. FML

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

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 realized that I have an odd habit of plucking the tiny white hairs on my upper lip when I am overly stressed. But only the right side. I noticed when examining my face and seeing they'd all come back black. I've got half a mustache. I'm female. FML

Make it stop
Today, I have what is probably a cold sore on my upper lip. I also have a mustache, which keeps rubbing against it. Because of this, no matter what I do, it stings. The next few days are fixing to be very, very long and miserable. FML

Today, I was on my way to meet my partner's parents for the first time. Although I was in a rush, I managed to hop into the shower and shave. I now have a cut on my upper lip. I'm a woman. 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

Red alert
Today, I was going to bleach my bikini line, as I have not been able to shave there due to some ingrown hairs, and I also have to lifeguard every day. As it turns out, I'm allergic to the bleach. There is now an angry red, burning rash on my crotch that you can see around my swimsuit. FML

Don't listen to them! Waxing, plucking, shaving, etc. makes your hair grow out thicker and darker!

No it doesn't.

That's why you have to keep shaving, waxing, plucking etc.

Actually the more often u wax it can kill the hair Follicle so it actually ends up being less.

I've heard though that the one exception to that rule is the face.

Shaving makes hair appear to grow in darker and thicker because the base of the hair that grows out is thicker than what would normally be the end and hair grows a bit faster after shaving or cutting, but plucking and waxing usually have the opposite effect.

Don't fight Mother Nature. Go get a penis attached and become the man you were meant to be. Lots of guys would kill to have a decent 'stache, especially a bright red one!

Well done!

You can always use alternative methods such as waxing, plucking, etc. or you can use another brand of bleach. Someone I know had the same thing happen to them, but once they switched up the brand it made their upper lip hair clear blonde without damaging the skin!

Some people pluck their eyebrows. I still find that it's less painful and quicker if I wax mine.

42- I'm very grateful I am one of those women that does not need to worry about facial hair. It must be rough at 16 that you do. Wow.

I broke my own rule and assumed LOL, but you can't tell me you know everything about everything. This subject is just not something I have ever heard of. I always thought people with facial hair had to wax, pluck, or shave. Besides, its not as if me not knowing this has hurt anyone.

Have you thought about trying Nair? I dunno if you can use it on your upper lip, though.
annie_nk 23
You can but Nair can leave your skin just as red.

Oh well OP, what's done is done. I suggest you dye you hair also. So it'll match :P

Why not shave or wax it? It's a myth that the hair grows back thicker and darker... My mom always told me that it would so I wouldn't shave my arms. I shaved them anyway, and the hair is still as blonde as it ever was.
