Can be real headache dear Ann Landers you recently printed a letter about a woman who was fired because she had a Mustache. You said she should get rid of it. Obviously you Are not aware that it is neither easy nor cheap to remove hair from the face. I know because i have had the problem Alj my adult life. Once a week i went for electrolysis and after every treat ment my face was a mass of scabs for developed scars on my lip Sand around my Mouth. My Mouth was often so swollen that it was difficult to eat or even take a drink of water. On top fall the hell i went through the facial hair came Back again an again. There Are reasons some ple do not have electrolysis. The major reason is the never too Young for Ann Landers Cost. Another reason is time. Some people work for a living and Aren t Able to spend hours going for treatments. The do it yourself hair removal products can cause problems for those who have allergies or sensitive skin. No woman enjoys having a Mustache Ann. The idea that getting rid of facial hair is a simple matter is incorrect. Please set the record straight.
