If you are a girl, is it bad to wax or shave your upper lip?

Question:

Answers:
When you wax your upper lip, the hair may start to grow less there. Hair takes three stages to grow back. You will notice this more when waxed, plucked or removed with laser treatments. When you shave your upper lip the hair grows back the same thickness, but it grows in a different way and it may seem like there is more growing but there isn't.

It's a great idea, I don't like kissing a girl with a mustashe thicker than mine.

i dont think that you shoud shave, it will grow back stubby, rough and may be even thicker. Try waxing or threading.

Once you shave or wax it it will grow back thicker and more visible and you will have keep doing it the rest of you life. Unless you have a full mustache like a man then I wouldn't start shaving it. It's a pita.

I think its bad to shave it because it will grow back darker and thicker but if you wax often you'll be set.

If you wax properly, it actually won't grow back thicker. Only with shaving. However, if you don't have much of a problem with it and are not working in the entertainment industry (like modelling, where they make me also have hairless arms, back, etc., regardles), don't touch it. Even if it doesn't grow back thicker, having once removed it means that the hair is not used to growing in a certain direction, which means that you might have a couple messy stray hairs grow back on your upper lip in random directions (much more noticeable), and also the skin above your lip is much more sensitive and can easily rash and get irritated, which means you can go up to a week with a blotchy, red, and irritated lip.

I have waxed, shaved and plucked with tweezers. My boyfriend of 5 1/2 years does not have a clue or he just has not said anything.

DO NOT SHAVE.my best friend did this in high school & it made her look like she had a lil mustache & I didn't think she had 1 to begin w/. I recommend bleaching it unless u think you're really hairy.then maybe waxing would be better.
