My beard shadow remains though. It’s just this powerful. What can I do: even as a femboy my testosterone sensitivity as a communist male are just too high. Communism is simply too powerful. 😔
You might have to try waxing. That should murder the hair roots. Laser is definitely the best solution if you’re sure about it.
if you’re sure about it
Honestly idk. I hate how my face looks with facial hair but:
- I enjoy shaving my face (when I’m not too depressed to do it). It brings me some odd sense of peace.
- I love how my face looks like with shaving foam applied.
- I like how when I get too depressed to shave, the hair growing out adds to the sense of depression and how bad I look at the time.
but also
- I will never afford it.
Waxing and epilation will make the follicles stronger. It’s not recommended to do those if you’re going to do electrolysis at least (idk about laser) as it will take longer to be effective.
I’m pretty sure waxing pulls at the hair root, which does sometimes damage it and cause the resulting hair to come out weaker than before.
How many passes did you do and in which directions?
I have to go cheeks to neck, outside in, then inside out. (Never neck to cheeks.)
Every direction. I kept going, but the thick hair is just under the skin yet visible. :(
You might damage your skin if you keep going till you get it all. The trick for me is shaving every day (which you may already do) usually after a warm shower. But it also still helps to rest a hot flannel on my face first. Seems to help make everything supple so the razor can do it’s thing.
Yeah before laser I’d do three passes (with the grain, across the grain, against the grain) and then a final touch up pass for any stragglers. Too much is def irritating though!
Do you have to shave at all after laser? Or does it obliterate the hair follicles completely?
In the first few treatments the dark hairs are obliterated, then progressively lighter hairs are obliterated until there’s nothing left. I’m on my… 5th? 6th? One of those, which will hopefully be my last. Though I’m told it can come back due to hormone changes, so don’t expect it to last forever in the post-apocalypse I guess! 😅
Nice, I got one not too long ago to use with my legs because everything else plain works like crap for those, it works very well but I haven’t been keeping on top of it at all since it’s still winter and I’m basically always wearing pants anyway 😅
If no one sees it’s now prime time to shave funny patterns on your legs. 😝
