I’ve been on hrt for a couple of months and one of the hardest things I’ve had to deal with is my light skin + dark body hair. While I’m not out to the world yet it’d be nice to have a smooth chest without short, visible hairs after shaving, which leads to my question. Have any of you dealt with this and found someway to at least hide body hair stubble?

    Epilating can work both dry and wet, and wet could be easier. Maybe try wet (i.e. during shower) if you’ve tried dry

      I’ve tried both and the only difference it made is how much it hurt as it pulled out some of the hair. It didn’t seem to make a difference in result, ubfortunately. 😞

        Then I don’t know sorry 😭. I have some dark spots myself after epilating, but that’s just the next hairs growing out, and/or ingrown.

        I hope you find something that works for you ❤️
