This might be weird, but... Knuckle Hair

AlexisM082, on June 25, 2015 at 6:04 PM

Posted in Wedding Attire 32

So I'm Italian.. And I have hair. Fine hair, but yes... I have hair. On my knuckles... And my toes. It bothers the hell out of me and I usually quietly wax them every 2 or 3 months when I start to pull on them. There's maybe like... 5 or 6 hairs on my knuckles. Am I the only one who plans on waxing...

Am I the only one who plans on waxing their knuckles/toes before the wedding or any pictures happen? Today has been super weird... I figured I'd just add to it. I'm totaly not joking either... Sadly.

    I epilate the hair on my legs and once had the genius idea to try it on my toe. NEVER AGAIN! So much pain! I could not imagine waxing them, so shaving it is.

    It's a IDGAF kinda day/someone will probably get a laugh outta this so - yup, this is an issue for me too. (also a generally peach fuzzy face with a few rebel hairs that like to look like the start of a beard and tash. as well as pale arm hair APART FROM a band near the inside of my elbow which is very freaking dark)

    The toes/feet will either be getting hidden in some pretty shoes or meeting their demise at the end of a razor.

    Knuckles - I've found loom knitting has dealt with that for me since the friction has effectively burned away the hair/a few layers of skin on all knuckles aside from my pinky so it's like the hair is scared to grow back.

    It's amazing!! I have been waxed and plucked and shaved. Like shave twice a day... Super dark thick hair. Not pretty. Laser hair removal is the answer!! There is a difference between lasers. Any laser hair removal system you can do at home - TOSS OUT! won't work! Do your research - you need a place that has a medical grade laser.. to have one like this they need to have a doctor that is on site. He/She doesn't have to do the treatments but that's the only way to make sure that it's medical grade. Spa grade lasers aren't as powerful and can take more treatments.

    eta: the lasers pick up on the pigment of hair. Not the hair itself. So as long as there is pigment in the hair you're good. (sorry blondes, red heads and grey Smiley sad )

    I shave my toes/feet too. Ugh. I do have hair on my arms, but it's just too much trouble to do anything about it honestly. I do get get the hairs above my lip threaded occasionally. I'm Italian and Puerto Rican - I understand the struggle. Haha

    I shave my large toes and the top of my feet, I do not shave my knuckles but I shave my hairy Italian arms! Just the lower half of my arms though, not up into my shoulder area...

    Alexis - I did under arm hair laser hair removal, I had a total of 12 sessions from a highly rated place, unfortunately due to the type of hair I have, the removal didn't work so well. My armpit hair is thinner than it once was, however it still exists. It was a bummer, however I didn't find the procedures painful.

    I have peach fuzz basically everywhere lol. Except this ONE BLACK CHEST HAIR that my FH found(out of my view when I look down) I was mortified at the time, but now he tweezes it for me lol. Awe, true love. ETA: But even with peach fuzz, I still shave my knuckles & toes!

    I shave the hair on the tops of my big toes. I also have hair on my knuckles but I'm lucky it is so blonde it is almost see through, so I don't bother removing it.
