Bleaching hair is not so much a hair removal method, but a quick and easy way to make those unwanted facial hairs less noticeable. Bleach disguises dark hairs, transforming them into a blonde or golden color; making the hairs harder to see. This can be useful on an area that has thin but dark hairs like the face or neck. At home bleaching works by applying a chemical, namely bleach, to the selected area, and the bleached hair is removed of its pigment. Dark haired individuals often find that bleaching a slight mustache is much less painful, more private, and far cheaper than other methods.
