Interesting topic. I have exactly three hair on my chin. I have had them for years. I have only ever used a tweezer to pull them out at regular intervals. I have a relation who has the same problem, but she went a different route, she used threading and waxing. No sagging skin, but the hair is now much thicker and has spread all over her chin and looks quite bad, so she need to have her face cleaned before any event.

As you said, it is enough one tea spoon of turmeric, sugar and one table spoon of besan powder, two drops of honey. Add only adequate quantity of milk or curd to make a not too watery paste. Apply generously on the face, neck and all parts of body including under arms private parts, if you want. Leave it dry (may take 15 to 20 minutes time). One it has dried, against the direction of hair growth, by rubbing the skin in circular motion remove the dried paste. You can see hair falling along with the dried powder. Please don't expect 100% removal of hair on a single day. The body becomes soft, smooth, moisturised and surprisingly there is no tinge of turmeric in the body with sweet smell. If some of you in the habit of shaving, you may do so after applying the paste slowly. Some of the hairs will come out with root. Shaving may be done once in 15 days only (not on daily basis). Within month, the speed of growth will come down, hair becomes thin and altogether goes of in 3 to 6 months, depending on the thickness of the hair. Please give your feed back after one month

Daily application of turmeric is the natural way to remove facial hairs, though it's a slow process . If you want them to be removed instantly, go for waxing and threading. I go to Parlour for threading the facial hairs every month . It's like unavoidable now . If I leave for more than 2 months , it looks odd and forcing me to go for threading again .

The condition become worse if u leave for 2 months. the condition become worse if i leave for 2 days. itself. i could reduce hair growth on upper lip using thanaka powder but it is not working on my jaws and chin i think. i think i have to apply for years to see the difference.

Hi,
I would like to refer you to use waxing cream in your home. Because I also have the same issue, my facial hairs also more thick and grow faster and I hate it. Usually monthly once I do waxing for face, hands, legs but still I am looking to get rid of this. As I knew its nature, we can't do anything, when we reach more then 50's , automatically it will stop growing. And I used many home remedies, all in vain. At last one of my friends,suggested me to do waxing in home. Its very better, as we do daily brushing, hair combing, bathing . At least weekly once we can do it easily.

Pumice stones are harsh on face dear. Do threading or waxing, nothing else because face skin is really sensitive.

Not sure if this hair-singeing unit is available in India. It is available in KL, Singapore, and western countries. This is compatible for those who might have allergic reaction to hair-removal creams and chemicals. Or... very squeamish about suffering waxing/threading pains.
(singe = burn off hair)
