Mustache shadow

Hey all

I'm posting this to get info on how to get rid of a mustache shadow for good or at least for a little while. I don't hardly grow mustache hair anyway so I don't know why there's one there anyway. I've used covergirl invisible concealer and it conceals enough for me to be satisfied with it. But of course I don't wanna have to do this forever. Any reply will be appreciated.

Either Laser or electrolysis with go it for a long long time. Electrolysis is permanent murder of the stache hair follicles, and reduces the shadow as the pore the hair came from dies. The pore itself has blood vessels and a touch of pigment to support the coarse hair of the 'stache, and those go with the living pore. Sounds gruesome, but it works.

Seems as if laser hair removal is the only thing one can do to get rid of unwanted hair forever. Of course, the sessions cost a lot of money but it would be nice if I didn't have to pay all at once for those sessions. Is that possible and I wanna know if it's possible for other surgeries such as FFS? Btw thanks, Vicky^^

I know that there are constantly Groupons for laser hair removal that allow you to get them for dirt cheap. I would search around and see what you can find, Groupon is amazing! That is the only bit of info i can help you out with on this subject.

Good Luck,

Erik

You will pay by the session, and do not have to do them all at once. In fact they need to be spaced out over about a year to get everything done, since your hair does grow in defintie cycles all over your face. (Someplace between 20 and 30% of all hair follicles are dormant at one time, and have no hair in them for the laser to act on, but will regrow in a while).

Why not go to your bank (or a bank or credit union) and open a savings account that you can put money in as soon as you get a paycheck (some employers will do direct deposit for you) and before you budget it for your daily spending. I have done that for years and paid for cars and a bunch of things from my savings account. Make it an amount you can live without immediately, but that will add up if your leave it alone.

@Erik I looked through these groupons and it seems as if none of them are available in my town I mean I did see some for skincare and such but not facial hair removal in my town that is. You were right about the prices I mean groupons knock those prices down a whole lot.

@Vicky I could start a savings account and start saving up for electrolysis and any other procedure I desire but I can't afford to save money because my family always needs it for bills and such. Maybe sometime in the future I hope but not now. One major road block in the way of me becoming the woman I want to be is my mom's disapproval of it. If she ever comes to approve of me then that road block would be destroyed then I can maybe proceed with what I want to do. Again thanks for trying to help! :)

      This is what I'm seeing too. I hate it but it is the current reality.  I expect more trouble in the future since "they now have the perfect excuse to let go the brakes." Kinda funny how quickly things turned against us.  I don't think we can really count on the Democrats either.

      I'm sorry, I don't want to be overly pessimistic, but I think to an extent the truth is irrelevant here. There is an absolute torrent of transphobes-were-right-all-along stories emerging in the wake of the Cass Review, not to mention the WPATH Files. These are coming not only from the usual anti-trans suspects, but from reputable newspapers like the Washington Post and the New York Times. (David Brooks in the Times: "Hilary Cass is the kind of hero the world needs today.") And while I'm aware that both those outlets have been leaning anti-trans for a while, they now have the perfect excuse to let go the brakes.   Ultimately, all that's needed for governments to ban these treatments is enough public support, and I suspect that support may be rapidly growing. Since I work with trans kids, cis folks often bring up the topic with me when they have "concerns", and I have been amazed at the number of otherwise reasonable people who have latched on to classic anti-trans tropes like social contagion or the idea that trauma causes transness. Whereas in the past they were generally convinced quite easily by my obviously superior knowledge, I'm expecting the task of convincing them to get harder starting as of now.

      In those dimensions, not even Sophia Loren could hold a candle to me. A Goddess....in my own mind. lol

      So, just imagine how spectacularly beautiful you'd be in four-dimensions April.

      That does sound hard to keep up with.  I use patches, changed twice a week.  But I have to have my phone set to remind me.  I just don't think about it.
    • April Marie
      Oh, I am drop-dead gorgeous in a totally different dimension @Sally Stone! :-)

      Ladies, each of your comments makes me realize my decision to share my journey was a good one.  Before committing, I worried that my storyline wouldn't be of interest to anyone. I'm so glad I'm striking a chord with many of you.

      I am sorry to hear that. It just means something better is in your future!

      How we look in photographs isn't really anything we can control.  I've actually searched for answers and there are lots of good explanations out there like this one:   https://www.foxbackdrop.com/blogs/news/beautiful-photogenic-reasons-tricks-foxbackdrop#:~:text=Based on the light-creation,angular faces are usually photogenic.   The simplest explanation is a picture captures our image two-dimensionally when in real-life, we are seen three-dimensionally.  A person can be beautiful or handsome in real life but the two-dimensional image can be way different.  So, for those of us that don't think we look good in a picture, fear not.  We are much better looking in three-dimensions.

      This is your journey and no one here will judge you or bully you. This is a very accepting, non-judgemental place and you can process at your own speed. Having said all welcome Violet, we are glad you found us. I know we all look forward to hearing from you.

      Good morning    I should not have said about sleeping in, now I have to go in 2 ½ hours earlier.  Oh well at least I. Off tomorrow and Monday, I think.as of now, hope I didn’t just jinx that too.     Hot today high 80s dropping quickly and rain to the 60s for a couple of days then more normal 70s.  It just depends on which way the wind blows. Off the gulf, hotter, off the ocean, cooler, out of the north rain and when they all converge, look out.  That’s today.   i made a pot of coffee but I think most of it is going to waste.  My wife went back to bed and I’m not good with coffee when I’m hot, and I am. That’s my fault, I was 4 days.late with my E again.  I just st have a really hard time keeping on a 10 day schedule.  And my reminders aren’t helping..   now I’m going to peak by tomorrow since it isn’t all absorbed in one day, I’ll hold fairly steady but if I’m late again I’ll drop well below my target yet again.     Im down in the valley, the valley so low But I see my true love, at the top of the hill i climb the mountain, but she is not there for she has gone back down, to the valley below   I didn’t come up with a refrain and with that I’m calling the guys with the padded cells. lol   Willow
