Hello Everyone,

But I dont have the money right now, so i want to remove my hair temporaritly like triming or any electric products..cuz i dont prefare waxing or threading..

Please can one suggest a good product....

Suggest that your physician visit this forum before continuing to offer advice about IPL on fine facial cheek hair.

I have personally observed IPL stimulate hair growth on the fine hairs that grow on the cheeks and along the sides of the face.

My suggestion is to find an electrologist and start with short appointments as this might be more affordable.

If this is still too expensive, trim the hairs short and be careful not to cut yourself!

Good luck.

Arlene, you've seen IPL stimulate hair on male faces?

The best, and really only temporary thing you should do, is shave with a razor like you would do on the rest of your face.

Once you have they money, you should get electrolysis, not IPL which isn't good for hair removal.
