Finally I found you!! I hate hair on my face!!! You’re so honest and women need to know this stuff! Thank you!

Dermaplaning changed my life! I’m blonde and have sensitive skin. The peach fuzz was driving me nuts as I aged because it “grips” onto foundation and makes it look cakey. Bonus: the exfoliation level is comparable to microdermabrasion if done correctly. Minus the fuzz and dead skin my skin glows and looks youthful. I am frequently mistaken for being in my mid-to-late 30s…I’m 54 (and have NOT had surgery!). ☺️ Tips from medspa aestheticians: start with clean, dry skin. _Gently_ pull the skin taught—loose skin is easy to catch and cut yourself. Hold your blade (they use #10 scalpels) at a 45° angle; use short quick strokes; downward strokes are recommended by the razor companies b/c you’re less likely to get ingrown hairs, but what’s most important is to keep the direction consistent—many estys move upward and outward towards the hairline. After care: 10 min of steam is ideal followed by gentle moisturizer and/or facial oil, and sunscreen is a must for exfoliated skin. Only repeat every 2 weeks minimum (3-4 is better) as over-exfoliation is not good for your skin either. Lastly, never dermaplane over acne or broken skin as it can cause scarring and hyperpigmentation that can be permanent.

I’m always thankful to find a beauty YouTuber for us Ladies +50 ☺️ I love Makeup but I just can’t get my skin as flawless as the young girls/women here. And I get very frustrated. I used to go to a cosmetology to get my hair off with wax, but it was too expensive. I started with this way since last year and it’s better and cheaper.

Great video! I love your channel. I tried the small razors, and they were a good way to "get my feet wet" and the I saw the "Dermaflash" game changer. I got mine from QVC and I absolutely LOVE it. I use it about every 2 weeks. Of course, I do have the occasional chin hair that grows about 2 feet overnight that I will pluck in between- but that's just a wonderful thing that happens when you get older (she says totally tongue in cheek)

I just love how open you are about things that most women really don't want to talk about.. I actually do exactly the same thing and have exactly the same problems you do. Peach fuzz and then whiskers on the.. 😂

[Cstarsmoon]

Thank you for being so honest about all the products. I've spent too much money on things that didn't work out. UGH!

[laurazeller]

Thank you so much for all your video tutorials! I've been following you for about a month now and have completely redone my makeup routine thanks to you! Everyone is noticing the changes. And now, I'll be shaving my face. :)

Thank you for pointing out the lefty aspect!! I had no idea these were made for righties, but I should have assumed, considering everything is. I never even thought of that and can’t wait to see if there’s an improvement if I can manage with my right hand. I was SO happy once I finally gave in and started using those little shavers. My peach fuzz got crazy when I hit 40 and I was always too afraid of stubble to do it. It’s so worth it!

The tinkle razor is nothing BUT a dull razor! I started off using those little toy razors myself, but after watching Dr. Dray, decided to just use a regular razor and shaving cream. I shave about twice a month. It's so much faster, easier, and my skin is so smooth. Makeup applies so much easier too!

I was born with alot of peach fuzz and it never went away. I recently discovered that the hair doesn't get darker when you shave. Just more blunt because it's new hair. Just have a hard time getting a routine to make it easy and fast. Thanks! This helped way more than any other video I've seen on this topic. Definitely subscribing. I've seen 2 of your videos and I just love your content.

I have used a tool from DermaFlash for years to remove facial hair and dead skin. I absolutely love it.

A few years back I fell and hit my face on my four poster bed. I ended up breaking and cutting my nose which required stitches. My ear nose and throat specialist told me to shave my scar on my nose to prevent scarring. I did as he said and you can barely notice I have a scar. He verified that yes shaving a scar thins it out.

I love your videos they have helped me tremendously! Thank you and please keep making more. You mentioned that you have plucked your chin hairs and it reminded me of something that my mom always said to me along time ago “ You pluck chickens not hair, you tweeze it”

[BethKibby]

If you're late to the party, like me, I just wanted to let you know that Stacked is having a Black Friday sale right now. Pretty nice discount depending on how much you spend. Thanks for the great video. I've been too intimidated to try dermaplaning, and feel more confident now.

About 5 yrs ago (age 55) I was shamed at a luncheon when I told other women I shaved my face when we were discussing dermaplaning. So happy to see this now

[chrisvdd]

I was taught yearssss ago, i am 57, that shaving your peach fuzz will make your face feel sharp and stubby when it grows in and that it grows thicker. I always avoided it and just plucked away. Now I guess that was an old wives tale?

[dixiecat]

I use a one glide Once weekly which keep the dark whiskery chin hairs at bay .
I did have laser which was very good, obviously more costly, unavailable where I live now, so frankly was wasted money & all grew back once stopped .The one glide works just as well, initial cost was the same as one laser treatment so highly recommend or a similar brand .

[marydavidson]

I shave in the shower with the Quattro all the time and love it!

[lynnkelly]
