We’ve tried waxing but my 15 year old wants to try bleaching. What do you think? And if yes, buy the stuff at the beauty supply ?
yes waxing hurts, but sometimes so does bleaching- it can burn your skin if you are not careful.(then you can end up with redness and even scabs) if you do use it make sure you do a patch test on your arm before you put it on your face. i used to use bleach(sally hanson and jolen brands), until i started reading about how all the chemicals in beauty products are toxic. some are hormone disrupters, some are carcinogens. now i actually use an electric razor(like the kind guys use) it is much less irritating.i know most women are afraid that the hair will grow back thicker, but i have not experienced that, and besides, even if it does, you are still going to be removing it somehow, right?the other thing i didn’t like about the bleach, is that it actually bleaches your skin, too-so your upper lip looks all white and the rest of your skin looks normal.also, when you bleach, you obviously aren’t removing the hair, and it is still visible, something that i did not like.
