I have a lot of facial hair; and I’ve been trying to properly combat it for a long time now.

I first got a safety razor, for a close shave - but the dark hairs were very visible and grew out a couple of millimeters by the end of the day.

I tried laser, but apparently my facial hairs are both light and dark, not to mention also having red pigments - so there weren’t much results.

Then i tried pulling hairs out, one by one - this has the actual results I want, but I have to spend so much time on it, and do it around 3 times a week to even keep it sort of under control.

I have a epilating machine (pulling hairs out), that work wonders on my legs - but my facial skin hates it, and last time I ripped my upper lip pretty badly

I’m hoping for permanent hair removal, but I have to wait for my doctor to hopefully send me to a place (electrolysis)

Does anyone here have any experience with waxing the face or such? Should I give up and live with the dark shades of shaving?

    Yes, but the assumption is that waxing will mean that I’ll get all the hairs, and that it will take far less time
