    First of I tell you waxing is not recommended by any doctor on face so better do electrolysis this is best treatment for the face for long term purpose.

    I wish someone had told me this about 3 years ago. I swear it makes the hair grow back thicker. :(

    Have not read the other comments yet so apologies if this is a repeat.

    Source? Have you asked all doctors?
    In my own experience, electrolysis didn't work AT ALL (even though I'm an ideal candidate with pale skin and dark facial hair) whereas with the waxing I have noticed a reduction in the amount of it. Cheapest, quickest, most effective option of the lot. Brilliant :)

    Judi, I would take vervena's post with a pinch of salt, I think they have an ulterior motive.

    I don't think waxing would make it grow back any thicker than any other 'plucking' method. It's supposed to weaken the root each time it's done, threading will have the same effect on the root too. Perhaps your hair is growing thicker with age? (Not implying your old btw:o)
