Hair removal is a pretty annoying thing, especially for us women. But what's even more annoying is facial hair. I don't struggle with upper lip hair or anything but I do have naturally thick brows that grow faster than you could ever imagine. And I've recently started noticing this one hair growing on my chin that's been seriously freaking me out. I can't decide whether I should pluck it out with a tweezer or just shave if off. What's really the best way to deal with facial hair?

For years I heard the best way to remove facial hair was with waxing. But that was before people started saying that all the tugging and pulling leads to wrinkles and sagging. Some models swear that shaving their faces leaves them with a smooth and glowy complexion but I have a pretty hard time believing that. So what's the best way to remove facial hair without risking that nasty 5' o clock shadow?
Well some people think that the R.E.M Spring is the solution. Supposedly this little gadget –a very thin spring or coil–works wonders and especially for fine, upper-lip hairs. All you have to do is roll it back and fourth a few times over the area you need to defuzz for great results. But it's not the only way you can get rid of pesky facial hairs. Here are 5 other facial hair removal methods you might want to try!
Threading: I get my brows threaded very 3-4 weeks. It not only leaves me with a nice and natural shape but it helps yank hairs out by their root. Whenever that annoying black hair pops out on my chin, I have my brow expert thread it right out!
Shaving: According to reports, women like Cleopatra, Marilyn Monroe and Elizabeth Taylor all shaved their faces. And apparently a lot of women are doing it these days 'cause it supposedly leaves you with a glow. You can get it done at a spa or do it yourself with Gabriella Womens Eyebrow & Facial Razors($3). And NO your hair won't grow back thicker!
Hair removal cream: Looking for a painless solution? Try the Veet Facial Hair Cream Kit ($7). It even helps restore your skin's hydration.
Waxing: I'm not against waxing facial hair. It actually works pretty well, you just want to keep in mind that constantly pulling and tugging over time will lead to sagging skin.
Tweeze: I don't recommend tweezing when it comes to upper-lip hair or any fine, peachy pelos you might have on your face. But if you have a few spiky hairs on your chin or jaw line that you can't bare to see, here's where the tweezers come in.
