I've already shaved my moustache with a razor for the first time, will it grow back thicker?

Hello Dear
There is no proven evidence that shaving makes hair thicker or harder. New growth stubble will certainly feel that way.


Laser hair removal is the best way to permanently reduce hair growth.

Thanks for your question.  It's an old wives' tale that shaving will make your hair come back thicker, darker...  Shaving is actually good for your skin turnover and texture.  Why else would women pay for dermaplaning?  If you have dark hair, you should consider LHR.  It will take a series of treatments to reduce your hair production.  LHR treatments deliver a burst of energy to the hair follicles that are actively growing.  The energy destroys these follicles ability to produce another hair.  The hair shafts in those follicles will release and fall out over the next 1-3 weeks.  Other dormant hair follicles start producing hair every day.  It takes a series of at least 6 treatments to get most the hair growth.  Generally speaking, you should look for a facility where they have a doctor on staff and is usually there to answer questions.  Find out what type of machine (laser vs. IPL) they will be using.  A properly calibrated laser is usually much more comfortable than an IPL.  Using the correct settings for your skin type also makes it more comfortable.  Sorry to say, probably the most expensive treatment is probably the best.
