Nobody can deny the fact that women have more pressure to look perfect and hide their flaws.
Facial hair can be one issue many women have to deal with, but men may not be aware of that as it is a taboo and we find ways to keep it a secret.
If I go back to my teen years I can remember worrying with my best friends if we had a moustache! I wish that was all we had to worry about these days.
I am not surprised that several women have chosen this way of hair removal. I understand that in some cases the problem is so severe that they think this is the best solution. I remember a girl writing about her situation on her blog. But she didn’t write it as a suggestion to others, it was a confession she made to talk about something she had to face every day and bothered her.
Let’s not judge them about their choice. They may do it because they tried other things with no desirable results, maybe they started shaving their face because they weren’t aware of other methods or they couldn’t afford a more expensive way of getting rid of the unwanted hair. And to be the devil’s advocate, I have seen girls who have been having laser sessions for too long and I can see they still cope with the regrowth of the hair.
Lately I have noticed popular YouTubers talking about how they shave the hair on their face, but they describe it as a habit they have chosen because it is beneficial to them. There I was surprised. First of all, I thought it would be difficult for a beautiful young lady who has million of followers to reveal that they shave their faces.
In addition, I had never thought that it would be a great idea for a woman to shave her facial hair as the result may not be what you expected. It is said by these women that shaving is like exfoliating and it makes the skin glow. I have also read that this is the method that movie stars like Marilyn Monroe and Elizabeth Taylor used as it makes the make up look smoother.
