There are plenty of hair removal techniques that you can choose from. The hair on your upper lip is usually very thin and can therefore be bleached. If the hair is fine enough, bleaching can make it practically invisible.


However, if the hair is thick, bleaching can make it look quite awkward, in which case, you need to try the other options.

Shaving is of course ruled out, as you will grow stubble within a few days, and no matter how thin the stubble is, it will look quite odd. Some women choose to pluck hair by using a pair of tweezers, but if your growth of hair is thick, plucking will be too painful and time consuming.


You might want to try waxing instead - this too will be rather painful, as it pulls out hair right from the root, but it happens quickly, so you will have a few seconds of intense stinging, after which you should be fine, except for a little redness and inflammation, which usually disappears within an hour or two.

If you want something less painful, you can using a depilatory cream, which will sort of dissolve the hair. These tend to stink, but they are quite convenient and easy to use - simply follow the instructions on the box.
