Beard Problem

[Windelbaby]

I have problems to remove my upper lip beard completely, also on my chin even after a complete shave you can still see it minimally. I often put on make-up and then go out as a woman, but I can't get the beard completely covered. Do you have any tips on how I can remove it or cover it up completely? I'm not considering removing it completely at the moment.

Could just wear a mask over your face.

Windelbaby,

Everyone is different.

Don't be ashamed of who you are.

If it concerns you, carry a small electric trimmer in your purse.

I could but I don't want to hide under a mask.

Thanks CodHero24 I also do not want to hide. I just want the beard is no longer seen because I want to go through as, Drau. Shaving helps a little but a small shadow of my beard is unfortunately still there. I feel very uncomfortable with it.

DailyDi I have actually also thought about bleaching but, I am so far undecided whether it can help. Are you sure it can help me?

Contact a makeup professional who has experience teaching makeup to gender diverse clients. I'm genderfluid but I don't always shave my beard when my gender switches from a man to a woman, there are a lot of reasons for that which I wont go into.

I found a makeup artist who helped me learn and perfect a natural based look that works when I have my beard and when I don't as well as makeup styles that convey more masculinity or femininity depending on my gender at the given time and gender expression.

There are specific makeup colours that contrast with different beard colours that can hide them virtually completely. Hiring a makeup professional for personal lessons isn't cheap but for me it was worth every penny and dramatically helped reduce gender dysphoria as well.

If you can't afford a makeup professional, you can always try youtube makeup tutorials.

Wenden Sie sich an einen Make-up-Experten, der Erfahrung im Unterrichten von Make-up für geschlechtsspezifische Kunden hat. Ich bin genderfluid, aber ich rasiere meinen Bart nicht immer, wenn mein Geschlecht von einem Mann zu einer Frau wechselt, es gibt viele Gründe dafür, auf die ich nicht eingehen möchte.

Ich habe eine Maskenbildnerin gefunden, die mir geholfen hat, einen natürlichen Look zu lernen und zu perfektionieren, der funktioniert, wenn ich meinen Bart habe und wenn ich ihn nicht habe, sowie Make-up-Stile, die je nach Geschlecht und Geschlechtsausdruck mehr Männlichkeit oder Weiblichkeit vermitteln .

Es gibt spezielle Make-up-Farben, die mit verschiedenen Bartfarben kontrastieren, die sie praktisch vollständig verbergen können. Einen Make-up-Profi für Privatstunden zu engagieren ist nicht billig, aber für mich war es jeden Cent wert und hat auch dramatisch dazu beigetragen, die Geschlechtsdysphorie zu reduzieren.

I went to a specialist who couldn't do it completely either. Of course I will still try sorry that I have taken so long for the answer

 

Would it be possible for you to post the makeup colors via a link or send them to me privately?

Wenn Sie sich keinen Make-up-Profi leisten können, können Sie immer die Make-up-Tutorials auf YouTube ausprobieren. 

Youtube I have tried for a long time. I can't find anything good in German. My English in unfortunately not so good so I do not always understand what is said in the video.

I know that some people have problems with body hair, that they want to get rid of, or they want to hide. One of the things that may be a problem is that if you wanted to hide it, you would have to use some sort of make up to do it. Do you remember the 1966 Batman? Cesar Romero the one who played the Joker, was adamant that he did not want to shave off his trademark mustache. In order to make sure that he could keep that mustache, he would make up is entire face, and cover the mustache. If you watch Batman and you watch the joker closely, you will see that he has his mustache. It’s just covered up by white make up.

I can also understand that there are people who may want to remove permanently body hair that bothers them. The only way to remove something permanently is to get electrolysis, but we know that that is very expensive, and also can probably be painful if you have to do those type of treatments. You could also try something like near, but then of course that doesn’t remove the hair for long either. So you’re basically looking at two options: one is to have your face shaved, and then cover with make up to make sure that you don’t see it, or do you have it removed electronically, which may cost a lot of money.

This tutorial has English subtitles; no actual speaking involved. It might be easier to translate the steps into German:

How about if you get a wax kit wax it yourself , or go to a salon to have it done.

Plenty of people use wax.

From waxing I can only advise against that I tried although it was specifically for the face. It only hurts and brings nothing because men have a different hair structure.

I know the Batman but unfortunately I have not seen it. I will continue to try makeup and one day have my hair completely removed when I am ready to come out completely.

How are you shaving.   Try bucking the general shaving trends:

Use a good multiblade (I use Henry's but before I used Gillette Fusion).
Use a good shaving oil or gel not a foam.
Shave upwards on the grain (this is what they tell you not to do but it does a better job).

...Gawd I luv this way too much LOL. ?

The product your looking for is Dermablend makeup. It is a professional product that is used to cover completely. It can be used to cover scars and tattoos along with beard shadow. I hope this helps ?.
