Shaving or trimming facial hair does NOT make it grow back thicker, darker or faster. I promise you…This information has been passed down to us for generations and honestly it’s caused more unnecessary plucking and skin damage than many things I can think of.
I’ve treated hundreds of people in clinic for facial laser hair removal and never, ever has it grown back worse for shaving or trimming! Of course, You have to do what is best for you but if the worry of your hair becoming worse for not plucking or tweazing is stopping you this may be of help! Andrea x x
Still not sure ?

“No significant differences in total weight of hair produced in a measured area, or in width or rate of growth of individual hairs, could be ascribed to shaving.”
