Maybe you truly are oblivious to the hair that has grown in on your upper lip as you've gotten older, to the darkening shadow below your nose that is not the result of the sun reaching its zenith. You produce more androgens than other women (male hormones) or you're simply getting older, but the fact is that you have hair on your upper lip and, unless you plan on moving to an Eastern European nation, you need to take action: permanent action.Sure, lip waxing will get you by on the cheap for awhile, but we both know that in a week or two your body is going to fight back by making more hair. There is hope, however, in modern technology. Either Electrolysis or Lasers can permanently remove your facial hair.
Electrolysis has been used for years and requires running a current through each hair as it is plucked. Needless to say, it is not a fun process, but it is relatively inexpensive and guaranteed to work.
Lasers are relatively painless and permanent, but may require multiple sessions and can get very expensive.
Then again, maybe you will never be able to look at grandma in quite the same way.
