I mentioned in another post that I really like getting my legs waxed when I can. I've been thinking about branching out to other areas (I've tried my back once) and was wondering if anyone has any experience getting facial hair waxed. I know some women do this for excess hairs above their lip, but I was wondering about getting a full beard done. I've seen some say to never do this and others say its not so bad.
If you intend on having permanent hair removal, waxing the face is a bad idea. It distorts the roots and makes electrolysis more difficult and painful. Yes people start out with laser but at some point electrolysis is needed to clean up what laser couldn't get.
Thank you Dena for the information. I hadn't heard that before and its really good to know.

Yup heard all sorts of stories about being unable to successfully kill the root with Electrolysis after waxing and plucking especially, My understanding is that the follicle is difficult to get to with the probe.
