Black, thick, silky hair is beautiful. However, when it starts to grow so conspicuously on your face, the hair starts to become very annoying. Thus, many decide to have their facial hair removed by shaving. 

Sadly, hair removal conducted under unhygienic conditions can result in an acne breakout. Additionally, depending on different bodies, hair could grow thicker or thinner.

The natural remedies below may help you to safely “kick out” the “unwanted guest”. Nonetheless, you should consider this thoroughly before applying these methods.
