Good afternoon ladiessss! So I can't be the only girl who experiences like slight peach fuzz above their upper lip. Even though it's not so noticeable I notice it. I don't want to get it waxed because it grows back way worse. So what are your guys suggestions!

As long as it isn't dark I wouldn't fuss with it honestly. Everyone has it, its just how the human body is made. It's actually a way the skin defends itself. And it's actually a myth that hair grows back thicker after shaving or waxing. The ends of the shaved/waxed hair is blunt because it's new growth. Longer hair that hasn't been shaved or waxed is tapered so it appears thinner. Waxing can actually stop hair growth over time because it damages/shocks the follicle as well.

But if it isn't noticeable why add an extra thing you have to do? lol. Girls are already expected to wax/shave so much. I wouldn't be trying to take on another area to have to worry about keeping hair free lol.

Lol that's true. But someone pointed it out. And I don't know if it's just me or tha way I am apply my make up but when I apply my cover up all over my face it appears darker.

Try blending it a little more, but if its really bad you can eventually try airbrushed foundation. The cold air from the airbrush makes the hairs stand up so the makeup gets under them right onto the skin, then when you warm back up the hairs lay back down and it gives a really flawless look. It's pretty neat how they work like that. But you could also just try blending downward. Blending upward can rough up the hairs and make them more noticeable and foundation/concealer less even.

But whoever pointed it out, tell them to grow up lol. Every human being has peach fuzz all over their body, that's just how the skin is naturally.

Everyone has it. if it's not black or a dark color just leave it be. if you think there's just a little too much, pluck a few. be grateful you don't have a mustache! lol. I'm Mexican so I'm just naturally hairy. my mustache was growing black since middle school. I started shaving it in like 6th grade lol.

Thanks you guys make me feel better. I felt insecure for a while I just didn't know how to come about tha situation bc it was a male who pointed it out. Would bleaching it be a bad idea.?!

You could definitely bleach it. there's one's made for peach fuzz. I wish I did that instead of shaving it lol.

I LEARNT THIS FROM WAYNE GOSS!

When applying makeup over your upper lip always apply it stroking downwards so the hairs lay flat :)

and I wax my upper lip and it doesn't come back worse!
