Threading and waxing are the most commonly used methods for removing facial hair, but they are sometimes very painful and could make the skin red and blotchy. Laser treatments are another way of getting rid of facial hair, but it is also expensive and there is a risk of side effects, so not many choose to do it. Here’s a list of some of the most effective at-home hair removal treatments that you can choose from. What’s more? They’re all free of any side-effects. Lemon juice and sugar Lemon juice and sugar have been used as an ancient beauty technique to remove facial hair. For this method, simply mix some sugar and lemon juice in a little water and stir until the sugar dissolves. Apply it on your face with the help of a spatula. As the pack dries, the hair will get attached to it and will come off when you remove the pack. Lemon juice also lightens facial hair and skin. You can do this every alternate day, but avoid going out in the sun after application. Banana and oatmeal Mash a ripe banana and mix it with powdered oatmeal. Apply the paste on your face and massage it against the direction of the hair growth before washing off with cold water.
