Facial hair is a constant battle for me, especially post menopause. I have a lot of it, and it's very coarse and jet black. Creams don't work for me, because they don't seem to get all the hair. So I pluck - twice a day. I take 5 min in the am and the pm, with a magnifying mirror and pluck the hairs the instant they are long enough to be grabbed with the tweezers. If I don't do this, I get a visible beard.

I prefer plucking to shaving because plucking at least lasts longer than shaving.

In the new year, I'm thinking of buying one of those ultra pulsed light hair removal machines, as I've read good things about them, and see if I can come up with a solution that doesn't require daily maintenance.
