Can anyone recommend a good home IPL device for use on the face? For some reason when I hit 35 last year my body decided that all these random hairs would come out to play.

Rude tbh! 😂

I’ve got this one and it’s definitely helped with the hairs on my chinny chin chin (which randomly appeared after SB2 was born) just give a maintenance zap every few weeks now

edit 🥕
edit 2 - brown hair/paleish skin

It would be quite time consuming to do a larger area but hoping to try it on my pits at some point

I have one of these too and it's definitely helped with mine too. I practically had a dark beard if I didn't shave daily. When I use the Lumea on the reg (once every couple of weeks) they disappear to almost nothing, except a few white hairs which aren't nearly so visible. I've been a bit lax with it recently, but even then regrowth is nowhere near as bad. I am pretty much the ideal colouring for it though (paley, pale skin and majority dark, dark hairs) and I think that makes a huge difference to its effectiveness.

I think sandwiches are one of my favourite foods, but JM's are just always so sad and miserable looking.
 
As a woman who could grow a respectable beard, I am loving chin hair chat! At the moment, I'm loving mask wearing as it covers them up, but I may need an IPL once lockdown is over cos I am sick of plucking the buggers. Even the facial wax strips don't work. I have to use the leg waxing strips to get rid of the bristly sods.

I'm also dubious about the claim she was on testosterone. I have known a few FTM trans people and a couple who detransitioned. Their voices still sound masculine, and they'd said they're still dealing with excess body hair. Although Jack did mention she's had hair loss and bald spots, which can be a side effect, although the photos she's posted don't really show that.

Her sandwiches look like the ones you find in a vending machine at a long-distance bus station. Except with more eyelids and bollocks.

No no dear heart, that non existent hair loss and patchy hair is from STRESS x

You guys are the best. Thanks mods for allowing the off topic chin hair chat 😂

Glad to see you back Alan ❤

Well as long as the mods are allowing OT then I will put in a good word for the Braun Silk Epil pro 5 IPL machine. I have very pale skin and very dark hair (🔺) so it has worked absolute wonders for me!

Would I be pushing my luck to add a little .gif of what I looked like pre-IPL? Probably, but I’m going to do it anyway as I’m a complete maverick.
