I started getting wiry hairs on my chin around age 40. I just pluck them. Lasers are typically ineffective on ladies facial hair. Electrolysis is the only truly effective option for truly permanent hair removal. Shaving hair does not make it thicker at all. Many high end spas do a treatment called dermaplaining (or something like that) and it shaves and super exfoliates your face.....it removes ALL of the soft vellus hair on the face. Plucking and waxing can make the hair grow in thicker as it disturbs the follicle beneath the skin.
