Facial hair.

Hi.

I'm in my late 20's. I get facial hair around my chin. It is embarrassing. Waxing costs too much. What's the best way to remove it that is cheap?

Hello,
For hair on chin, you can get shaving, waxing or epilation done. try to wax the hair out in a single strip as multiple strips may injure the skin more. After waxing apply ice(wrapped in a towel) and some calamine lotion on the skin which helps in soothing. You can also take some over the counter anti-inflammatory like ibuprofen after waxing.

However,the best method of painless hair removal is by laser treatment. I would advise you to consult a dermatologist/cosmetologist and discuss this option with him.

I hope it helps. Take care and regards.
