Ok, back to the original post. I would wax rather than epilady. I wax the upper lip regularly, and it hurts but is brief. I do it myself but it can be done at a salon if you are afraid to try it yourself. The first couple of times you do it you can end up with a really red angry area where you waxed but the more often you do it the less you react to it, plus eventually the hair stops growing!! So an added bonus!!
Elizabeth, I have been on BHRT for a year now and my hair is also very thick and bouncy! Although it is not as curly as it used to be. And yes, I have bad hair days too!!
