There are different types of facial hair, which need to be considered when you are choosing the best hair removal treatment.
- True
- False
Hair can be classified into 3 types: Fine, Medium and Coarse. Fine hairs are soft and thin and feel like the skin of a peach. Medium hair is thicker to the touch, but still soft. Coarse hair is more visible and feels very stiff, similar to a kiwi. To identify your hair type, look at the fuzz that is around the corners of your mouth, where facial hair is most prominent. The new Olay Smooth Finish Facial Hair Removal Duo works most effectively on Fine to Medium hair, while still being gentle on the skin.

I could be the poster child for facial hair. Never had acne as a teen but when I hit my late 30's UGH, acne from facial hairs, they get ingrown and red and nasty and I pick at them trying to get out that ingrown hair! UGH. I would be your poster child, but you'd have to cover up my eyes so nobody would know me.
