Re: wax. If you have irritation, you may want to try a different brand. The first time I waxed my eyebrows the skin all fell off. But I had a hairdresser I trusted who assured me that the better stuff she used wouldn't do it, and she was right.

Also, if you have a lot of small hairs, the microwave wax is a good choice because yes it hurts but only for a second, and its a lot quicker than individual plucks.

I went back to complain the next day. They said they should've put powder under the wax to prevent tear, irritation, rash. "Baby powder" will do.
We never went back there!
So . . . this might work.

15X mirror and Tweezerman tweezors from Bed, Bath & Beyond. They could grip a micro hair from across the room - can even send them to be sharpened for $5 (but you have to have two pairs - one to use while the others are being sharpened!).

Lip waxing is achieved on the same schedule as eyebrows. I love the Honee pot - yes, I have my own heated wax pot. If there's something special going on then I don't have to wait to get to the salon for a wax - just turn on the pot and do it yourself!

BTW .. still waiting for armpit / leg hair to do a disappearing act!
