Title: Going to work and out in public with beard growth
Post by: suzifrommd on December 06, 2013, 07:50:49 AM
Monday is my first electrolysis appt. I will have about 3 days beard growth on Monday when I need to go to work.

Has anyone gone out in public or to work with pre-electrolysis beard growth?

Is there a way to cover it up?

How did it work out?

Have you thought of pleading allergy/pollution/cold and wearing a paper mask like you dentist wears?

I've done some electrolysis, and since my whiskers grow indifferently at best, there are mornings when there's nothing to note so I don't shave...but by 5 I've got stubble.

No one has ever mentioned it, but my cover story is "I'm getting electrolysis and it's necessary to get some length in the hairs."

I'm 100% out, btw.

I am still in process of facial hair removal.

I just use a concealer stick, primer, foundation (a heavy one) and powder. Completely covers it all 100%.

As far as beard growth goes...like more than a days worth...nuuuuuu. It needs to be shaved off nice and smooth.
Ppl would stare at me if i didnt shave everyday and do all the makeup.

Edit: But then again I ger laser, not electrolysis, so I guees its diff for u
