    I absolutley loved listening to Emma in this video and the thinnng hair videos. I find her absolutley adorable and so fun to listen to, could listen all day long. I have PCOS and all the things Emma mentioned and my GP doesnt take me seriously at all and I think until you can hold their hand and give them a bout of what you are going through so they can feel for themselves they will not understand. Emma you are stunning depsite how you feel sometimes dealing with all that.

    I am so sad the video ended. I have been listening to Emma’s podcast for about a month now (started with episode one and trying to catch up to the most recent ones) and absolutely fell in love with her voice and character.
    Wow you both are so natural in front of a camera and I love the friendship you share. Please get her to do more videos with you? I thoroughly enjoyed these videos so much.

    I have PCOS and after having my son, the situation was beyond camouflage. Full-on thick black beard all along my jaw and neck. I tried everything. IPL did absolutely nothing. Zero. I just plucked every day, which resulted in loosened neck skin after a few years. In the end, I shaved it all off and a few days in, I did electrolysis. It hurts only the first three times I think, but you can apply a cream beforehand that numbs the area, then it's not even annoying. I did it every few weeks and a year later, I'm completely hair-free. Of course, after three to four months you're already at the stage where you don't mind growing them out because they are so much thinner and blonder. Please try electrolysis if your facial hair is due to hormonal reasons, it's an annoying process but it's the only thing that works. Even laser was a waste of money.

      Anastasia Pentias ..I need to try this..is it expensive? Roughly how many sessions do u need?

    • @anastasiapentias7355
      @anastasiapentias7355 6 лет назад +4

      naz kousar you'll be done in about a year's time if you do your monthly sessions. The sessions here in Greece are about 50 euros each, but then get a lot cheaper (15 euros) as your session after about the third treatment are significantly shorter : you have fewer hairs sprouting out every time but also thinner and lighter, which means a much quicker treatment.

    • @greenknitter
      @greenknitter 6 лет назад +4

      naz - I'm getting it done at the moment and my beautician has recommended at least 8 sessions because they do grow back, just lighter each time they're zapped. I have quite sensitive skin and not a great pain threshold so I find it painful, especially on the top lip, but everyone has different pain thresholds so you may not find it so. No matter, it really works brilliantly, far better than anything else to permanently remove hair. It costs me €30 for a 30 minute session- I'm in Ireland.

    So pleased this subject has been discussed openly. I’ve always been hairy and now I’m 50 it’s getting even worse. All the teen mags I used to read (Jackie & Blue Jeans 😉) used to warn us girls in the 70s and 80s NEVER to remove our facial hair otherwise we would end up with coarse men’s stubble. I suffered with a moustache for years before I dare try waxing. It’s fabulous that we now have the tools and knowledge to get rid of facial hair which can really knock your confidence. Thanks for sharing Emma. You’re not alone!

    I have used an epilator on my legs, underarms and bikini line for over 30 years. Now have no hair on my underarms, the odd one or two on my legs and the occasional one on my bikini line. The first time is the most painful, after that, merely uncomfortable, due to the hair growing in cycles. Once a week is usually enough to keep smooth. Highly recommend!

  • @jilangeltuyl2373
    @jilangeltuyl2373 5 лет назад +16

    Dear Nadine and Emma: Don't fear the epilation!..I use it, wherever. One becomes used to it, after three or four goes, in that particular area. Becoming 'used to it', means that the nerves in your skin don't feel it, anywhere near, like the first few times, of using the epilator. And the skin is so baby soft! The trick is to purchase the right epilators, for the different parts of the body. By right, I mean the best makes, and the also the size, in relation to the part/s of the body. When epilating, you must apply a certain pressure, otherwise it will be painful. For the face, I use a battery powered XD-3007 facial epilator. It isn't that strong, but I am the same colouring as Nadine, and therefore do not suffer from course, dark, hair. For the body, I use Emjoi....different sizes for different parts of body. Every girl should start with an epilator, and then it probably wouldn't be that painful, in the beginning. Emma, please, please, stop the shaving, and the plucking, epilation is so much easier, long lasting, and eventually permanent. In saying that, I do agree, also, that the laser is long lasting, and eventually permanent. Laser only works on dark hair. Electrolysis is also permanent. Epilation works on all hair, it is inexpensive, but it is something that only the person with the hair, must apply to themselves. I am certified, degreed, skin therapist.

      OH! I finally have found someone else who shares my "love" (if there was ever such a thing) for epilating! In between the daily tweezing on the face and waxing bikini area and eyebrows, I have an epilator for chin, neck, cheeks & sideburns. Then I have another epilator for legs and (deep breath) bikini area. And I agree, you do get used to the feeling similar to what occurs when you are getting a tattoo 😉

    OMGoodness, why have i never come across your channel before?!! This is a wonderful video ladies, thanks tonnes. I have always had a slightly darker tash, growing up I kinda put it to the back of my head as I found it was all consuming. The thing that got me worse when I was late teens was the bikini line and my armpits, so I ended up getting laser hair removal at a clinic and after twelve sessions on each it really made a difference ( this was about 15 years ago) the bikini line has never grown back fully and neither the armpit hair but it's grown back sparsely but tbh I am happily married and hubby has seen me give birth to both our sons, so there's no shame. Now our youngest started school a year ago so, I have been looking into my beauty type things, because, well I can, I never bothered when they were super little as I had even worse skin than I have now and I was just too occupied with being at home with the kids. Here's the clincher, my mother dearest and nan went through the menopause at 39, I'm 38 in a couple of months and for the last 3 or so years, there have been certain symptoms that could suggest peri-menopause , more recently, my tash hairs are coming up darker and I have sprouted a few more too, there have been sprouters on my chin. My peach fuzz on the sides of my face and down the neck etc is still pale atm so I am not too fussed about it but the tash has really been bothering me lately. I would love to get the at home laser, but that'll be a save up kinda thing. I seriously think it's down to hormone changes ( not that it shows up on hormone blood tests till right before you hit menopause as I hear it). I am really going to try my damndest to save for the at home laser though, because I was so impressed from laser hair removal from years back that an at home one would be proper lush!! Loved this open chat about it though, it needs to be done more thoughout society, let's face it, we're all human!! xXx

    I would never remove my peach fuzz. For that reason I will try all kinds of other tricks for the skin rather than dermaplaning! This new trend of women shaving their faces makes me absolutely crazy! I am not talking about mustache removal, or women who are concerned with bothersome hair as Emma is. (Emma you are beautiful by the way) I mean women shaving their entire faces...their velous hair.... their foreheads??? OMG!!!! For the sake of makeup application? No!!!! I think it is insane. Wait until they are over 50 and hormonal. They are going to look like Humphrey Bogart in The African Queen with his 6:00 shadow!!! 💗 you Nadine! 😘

    Shaving makes skin better,smoothes it out, reduces pigmentation and brings a glow to the skin, but after shaving be sure to apply a good sunscreen to face as your newly exposed layer of skin is much more prone to burn and tan!!

Hats off to Emma for being brave enough to speak about it in the public domain, be proud that you will help others by doing so. I cannot understand why GPs seem to dismiss PCOS so easily, surely it is worth dealing with earlier rather than later? oxox

    Surprised you didn't mention electrolysis. I'm currently having electrolysis treatment on my chin and upper lip and it's the ONLY thing that's worked to permanently get rid of hairs completely. Quite painful but I don't care because it works so well. I stupidly started plucking hairs many years ago and of course they came back darker and stronger to the point you could see them obviously with the naked eye, and I was sick of shaving every day so I'm getting electrolysis now. Worth every penny/cent.
    I had IPL laser done a few years ago but it never gets rid of the lighter colour hairs and I'm dark blonde. They also won't use lasers on moles but WILL do with electrolysis, another advantage.

But virtually all my eyebrows went from really thick to barely there. I started taking biotin every day and my eyebrows are back but so is the hair on my lip and sideburns. Unsure what to do. I am so relieved at getting my eyebrows back I pretty much ignore the rest. The baby hairs all over my head making me want to rejoice :-)

It is very fine and pale, which is lucky I guess as I'm 58 and well into the menopause. However, having had a close look, I spotted a few nose hairs that I might pluck out now, but I think I'll pass on all the torture implements that were demonstrated!!

    Medical Grade IPL works. The IPL you get in a normal salon won't cut it. You need the more powerful machines, run by nurses and medics. Once every 2 weeks for your first 2 sessions, then 4 weeks apart. I had 4 sessions on my legs and they've been hair free for 6 years, then started coming back very sparse.
    I had my whole nether regions done as a Brazilian, with IPL, I've hardly got a hair there and the hair between my thigh crease never grew back.
    I had really thick, tree stump hair, with two or three black hairs in each pore, even my breasts had dark hair, it was soul destroying.
    I spent every penny I had on hair removal, nothing spent on holidays, clothes etc. But it was worth it!
    Get this done before you're 50, ladies, you won't regret it.

    Emma please get tested for PCOS if you haven't already. I have PCOS and it doesn't just give you the annoying excess facial hair. It also affects how you process sugar and makes you prone to diabetes and heart disease. There is a long list of side effects like trouble losing weight, irregular periods, trouble getting pregnant. It is treatable so it's good to see a doctor to see if they can help reduce your symptoms. Take care.

    Dermaplaning/shaving is the best. I do entire face, forehead, nose, cheeks, everything with those little pastel razors that come in a 3 pack. Once every couple of weeks is plenty, regrowth is slow and not terribly prickly with the vellous hair. Plus I'm getting excellent exfoliation at the same time, loads of dead skin comes off! Sideburns might be pretty prickly though.

    Here’s the problem. As we get older, our eyesight gets worse, and that means we need a magnifying mirror. THAT’s when you see all those hairs (and other things) that make you nuts. I just tried using some Nair waxing strips, and they worked pretty well on some areas of my face. Unfortunately, I removed a small layer of skin under my nose that looks awful!!! I’ve tried shaving and it only lasts a short time. I want to try an epilator.

Also, when I had my salon I literally waxed my whole face... it was FAB! It’s smooth and better than any exfoliating... smooth as can be!!! There’s also a cute little battery operated rotating disc shaver that is sold in every colour everywhere and it’s great for those strays. 💞

    A Poster mentioned
    using Spearmint Capsules.
    What a great idea! 😊
    PCOS is actually Insulin
    Resistance, so it makes sense
    that a natural anti-Testosterone,
    in this case the Spearmint,
    would work to reduce the
    hair growth.
    Natural Progesterone can
    also help with slowing or
    stopping unwanted hair
    growth ...
    It may also help reverse
    hair loss.
    A diet that lowers insulin
    levels, such as the
    Ketogenic diet, or even a
    Vegan-Keto diet would keep
    insulin levels low enough to
    lower hormone levels in both
    PCOS sufferers and those
    going through Menopause
    or peri-menopause.
    Nothing beats a Try ...
    and going very low carb Keto
    for a month or two may also
    help with regulating monthly
    menstrual cycles in the
    premenopausal women.
    And also slow down hair loss.
    Love the Video!

    I’ve been using Silk’n Flash & Go which acts the same exact way with the Philips machine you have. It also has five levels and needs full contact with the skin before it will flash.
    It was C$300 and fits in the size of my hand. It’s slowed down my hair growth a little bit. I suspect it’ll take half a year before I’m satisfied with the results.

    I think I still carry emotional scars from my facial hair. I was in my 30’s before I finally had the money to afford electrolysis, which did take care of the problem. Even in menopause , it is nothing like it was then. What I did not know, until the electrolysis people pointed it out, what that I had a hormone imbalance. Please tell younger women with a lot of hair to get tested because it can be corrected and then the hair, once removed, will stay away.

      Electrolysis. Permanently gets rid of hairs that lasers won't- grey and blonde hairs. I'm getting it done at the moment and I'm blonde but many of the chin hairs were quite dark and coarse it's the only thing that has gotten rid of them for good. Get a recommendation for a good practitioner as there are some cowboys out there who don't do it properly. €15 for 15 minute session, €30 for 30 minutes- Irish prices.

      Vicky Keating-Brown You're welcome 🙂 I understand, having been through it myself and it really sapped my confidence and made me very self conscious of it. I hated having to shave nearly every day like a guy.
      Some people get laser hair removal done first then use electrolysis on the hairs that remain (ones laser won't get rid of like white, blonde or grey, or hairs on moles). I did this but some hairs came back after laser. Personally I find electrolysis more targeted, cheaper and is fully permanent. Laser is often touted as permanent but actually it's not necessarily. Laser does massively reduce hair coarseness and numbers and can destroy root follicles if done properly but it can regrow if the follicle is just damaged and mostly puts hairs into dormancy. They grew back lighter, finer and fewer but I wanted them GONE so am having electrolysis. Depends on many factors which way you choose like cost, access to technicians (good electrolysis techs can be hard to find here at least where I live as laser has taken over from it a lot), pain tolerance, and the results you're looking for. Best of luck and I hope you have success in tackling it :)
      Feel free to ask if you have any more questions.

      I'm not sure how that happened but I'm nearing the end of my treatments - now only get one done every two months and 95% are gone and not regrowing. I presumed you did your background checks and got a recommendation for an accredited technician before you started? The equipment was in modern, clean and in good working condition? (I went to one place where it didn't!) They should have sat you down and explained everything about how the treatment works including the biological process of hair growth and how they're formed in the follicles, and what to expect from the treatment- managing expectations, the timeframe and how many treatments it will likely take, pain levels/pain management during and after, how to get the best from each session including what NOT to do, how they will blend it into vellus hair for a natural look, and aftercare requirements, in a free unhurried consultation before making an appointment for the actual treatment itself. That's what mine did for at least half hour, Without all that you will not get the desired result. My technician takes pride in her work and told me she would rather not take my money than not do a professional job where the customer was not 100% satisfied and getting visible results. She is the best I have ever met at her job. That's what you should look for and not settle for anything less.
      A year is a long time to not see permanent results! Did it grow back straight away? Do you have any medical conditions like PCOS that cause hirsuteness?

I only use actives on my forehead and cheeks where the laser doesn't contact and I crave the opportunity to use actives all over my face.

    I don’t understand this trend for women shaving off the peach fuzz hair off their faces. Surely they will eventually get stubble? Unless I sprout one of the thick black coarse pube type hairs - usually on my chin or near my ear- I don’t bother. This is really why super hd cameras and magnifying mirrors do nothing for anyone’s self confidence. Nobody has looked at their skin using one of these and not found some sort of imperfection. Ladies need to give themselves a break and accept we have hair, pores and so does everyone else!

      I use one of those exfoliating peels you use on dry skin. You let the gel get a milky color, then in a circular motion, go over your face. It all balls up, and if you have peach fuzz on your face, these balls stick to the peach fuzz. They don't rinse off, they don't wash off. They're very noticeable because they're white, hanging there off the fuzz on your face. The hair above my lip turned dark, while the rest is blonde. Hormones, I guess....lol
