Most men choose to shave regularly but even if they forget or choose to postpone the operation, nobody bats an eye. When it comes to women though, facial hair is embarrassing and the more you have, the bigger the problem and the more out of reach the solution. Plugging it is painful and takes long enough to think it over and over, while waxing doesn’t work if you have sensitive skin. In fact, waxing can create an entire different problem that will in turn require another complex and procedure, so it defeats the purpose.
Causes
Abnormal facial hair development, even so, is referred to as Hirsutism. It can be triggered by increased stages of testosterone and other androgens. Usually Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome is the major cause of Hirsutism. Hirsutism can also be hereditary. Sometimes use of certain medicines can also cause facial hair to grow.
Doing nothing is not an option and shaving is a big no-no too, as it will only cause facial hair to grow faster and thicker. Being a natural phenomenon, doesn’t mean that we should take it as a fact of life, instead focus on the causes and try to make amends. An irregular menstrual cycle is going to amplify the problem, but before jumping to conclusions remember that there are many drugs that have undesired side-effect and some of them make the facial hair problem worse. Hormonal imbalances, both chronic and caused by a pregnancy are also responsible for excess facial hair.
While shaving, waxing and bleaching are some of the temporary solutions to get rid of unwanted hair, there are some natural remedies – which may not offer permanent solutions – but help reduce hair growth.
1Use Spearmint Tea
Unwanted hair usually appears because of excess production of androgens. You can use spearmint tea to regulate the levels of these hormones. Take one cup water and bring it to a boil, add 1 tsp dried spearmint or 5-6 leaves of fresh spearmint and remove from heat. Keep it covered for 5 minutes then strain and consume. Or you can just buy spearmint tea available in the market. A daily cup of this tea is good to treat your problem of unwanted hair.
2Basil Onion Paste
You need 9 to 12 fresh basil leaves and the thin transparent membrane found in the onions. Take membranes of two onions and make a paste by crushing these with basil leaves. Apply this paste on the areas with excess hair. Using this paste for a month will bring beneficial result and you might end up getting rid of your unwanted hair forever.
