Home Remedies for Unwanted Facial Hair
In medical terms, abnormal hair growth (on the face as well as the body) in women is
called hirsutism.
It has been observed that individuals with dark hair or pigmentation are likely to be
hairier than those with a lighter pigmentation or blonde hair.
People typically have hair almost everywhere on the body, except on the nails and eyeballs.
Thus, women do have facial hair, but it is usually only fine hair or peach fuzz.
Here are the top 5 home remedies for unwanted facial hair.
1.
Homemade Sugar Wax
This is a super easy and effective home remedy to get rid of unwanted facial hair.
Mix two teaspoons of granulated sugar (brown or white) and one teaspoon each of honey and
water.
Heat the mixture in a microwave or on a stove for about half a minute until it bubbles and
turns brown.
Allow it to cool.
Using a spatula, apply it on the areas where you want to remove the hair.
Place a cloth strip over the sugar wax and smooth it out with your fingers in the direction
of the hair growth.
Finally, rip it off in the opposite direction of hair growth.
Repeat as needed.
2.
Chickpea Flour
A chickpea flour face pack will help exfoliate your skin to remove dead skin and hair.
Plus, it can lighten the color of your skin and facial hair.
You can get chickpea flour, also known as gram flour or besan, from an Indian market
or health food store.
Mix together two tablespoons of chickpea flour, one tablespoon of milk cream, one and one-half
teaspoon of milk, and three-quarter teaspoons of turmeric.
Apply this thick paste on your face and leave it on for 20 minutes or until it dries.
Scrub it off using a facial loofah pad or simply a soft cloth dipped in lukewarm water.
Do this at least three or four times a week for about a month.
Alternatively, mix one tablespoon of chickpea flour, one-half teaspoon of plain yogurt,
and one-quarter teaspoon of turmeric.
You can also add one-half teaspoon of rose water.
Spread it on your face and leave it on for 20 minutes before scrubbing it off.
Another remedy involves mixing two tablespoons of chickpea flour, one-quarter teaspoon of
turmeric and enough milk (about 1/2 teaspoon) to make a thick, smooth paste.
3.
Green Gram Flour and Rose Water
Like chickpea flour, green gram flour also aids natural hair removal through exfoliation.
In addition, the combination of green gram flour and rose water works as a natural cleanser
for sensitive and acne-prone skin.
Add one and one-half tablespoon of rose water to two tablespoons of green gram flour.
You may add one tablespoon of lemon juice as well.
Spread the paste on your face and leave it on for 20 to 25 minutes before scrubbing it
off.
Do this three to four times a week.
4.
Sugaring
Sugaring works as a natural treatment for removing facial as well as body hair.
Unlike waxing, it requires pulling the hair in the direction of the hair growth, which
causes less pain and skin irritation.
Interestingly, this technique was established centuries ago in Egypt.
Heat one-quarter cup of water in a pan.
Add two cups of granulated sugar and one-quarter cup of lemon juice to it.
Continue heating the paste until bubbles appear.
Turn down the heat to low-medium and let it simmer for about 25 minutes until it turns
dark amber in color.
Turn off the heat and let the mixture cool.
Prepare your skin by dusting a little cornstarch or baby powder on your skin and then spread
the lukewarm mixture on your face in the opposite direction of the hair growth.
Put a clean rag or cotton strip over the layer of sugar paste and let it sit for a few minutes.
Finally, pull it off quickly in the direction of the hair growth.
5.
Spearmint Tea
Excess hair growth is often attributed to excessive production of androgen in the body.
Spearmint tea can help regulate hormone levels.
A study conducted by Turkish researchers indicates that spearmint tea can help women with hirsutism.
The study subjects were given herbal spearmint tea twice a day for five days in the follicular
phase of their menstrual cycles.
The follicular phase begins on the first day of your cycle and lasts about 14 days.
Boil a cup of water.
Add one teaspoon of dried spearmint to it.
If you have fresh spearmint leaves, use four or five of them.
Cover the container and let it steep for about five to 10 minutes.
Strain and drink the tea.
Have it twice daily.
