Thanks SO MUCH for this thread! I was about to make an appointment for laser removal but decided to order the Avon hair removal cream instead. If it works, it will buy me some time before I have to make an investment. I have very fair hair on my upper lip, but it seems to be getting worse with age and is coming in on my chin (YIKES!!) a tiny bit. I'd rather nip it in the bud early. We'll see!
