How to get rid of long sideburns (for girls)

Girls can grow facial hair for a variety of reasons, but whatever the cause, it’s annoying! If you have long sideburns growing on the sides of your face, you can find effective methods to deal with it. There are some good options for getting rid of sideburns, such as using epilators, waxes, and hair removal creams. If the above methods don’t work, go to a salon to have your sideburns professionally removed.

Using the epilator

Buy an epilator. The epilator has multiple mechanical “arms” that can pull out multiple hairs at once. This can be quite painful but effective. Remember to choose a machine designed for facial hair removal. Facial epilators are smaller than body epilators, but their small size also makes them more precise and easier to control. ^{[1] X Research Source}

An epilator is great if you can tolerate pain and want quick and lasting results.
Some epilators can be used in the shower, when the soft, wet sideburns are easy to pull out, thus making it less painful.
If you are afraid of pain, you can take an over-the-counter pain reliever before using the epilator.

Wash one’s face. Use a mild cleanser to remove dirt, oil or cosmetics from your face. You should also tie your hair up in a high ponytail and use a headband to keep short, “child” hairs away from your face. Separate the sideburns on one side of the headband. ^{[2] X Research Source}

{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/c/c5/Remove-Sideburns-%28For-Girls%29-Step-3-Version-3.jpg/v4-728px-Remove -Sideburns-%28For-Girls%29-Step-3-Version-3.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/c/c5/Remove-Sideburns-%28For -Girls%29-Step-3-Version-3.jpg/v4-728px-Remove-Sideburns-%28For-Girls%29-Step-3-Version-3.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight” :345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}

Shorten long sideburns. A good facial epilator can remove small hairs as well as larger hairs on the temples, but short hair is easier to control. Use scissors to cut the hair short so that it is only about 0.5 mm long. ^{[3] X Research Sources}

{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/8/85/Remove-Sideburns-%28For-Girls%29-Step-4-Version-4.jpg/v4-728px-Remove -Sideburns-%28For-Girls%29-Step-4-Version-4.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/8/85/Remove-Sideburns-%28For -Girls%29-Step-4-Version-4.jpg/v4-728px-Remove-Sideburns-%28For-Girls%29-Step-4-Version-4.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight” :345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}

Push the epilator onto the sideburns. Turn on the epilator and slide it over the sideburns against the direction of hair growth. Try not to push too close to the hairline to avoid accidentally pulling out the hairs outside the sideburns. Remember that too sharp sideburns also look unnatural. ^{[4] X Research Sources}

Do not press on the skin or move the machine too quickly. You should use gentle strokes upwards until most of the sideburns are removed.
Skin can be slightly red and swollen after pulling your sideburns, even into the next day, so it’s best not to use an epilator right before the big event.

{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/6/6c/Remove-Sideburns-%28For-Girls%29-Step-5-Version-3.jpg/v4-728px-Remove -Sideburns-%28For-Girls%29-Step-5-Version-3.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/6/6c/Remove-Sideburns-%28For -Girls%29-Step-5-Version-3.jpg/v4-728px-Remove-Sideburns-%28For-Girls%29-Step-5-Version-3.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight” :345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}

Use tweezers to pull out any remaining hairs. The epilator cannot remove all sideburns, especially the hairs near the hairline. You can use clean tweezers, carefully pulling out any unwanted hair. However, you should consider leaving a few strands to keep the look natural. The effect of this method can last from a few weeks to a month. ^{[5] X Research Sources}

Don’t forget to clean the machine after use. Remove the head of the machine and use a small brush to clean the hair. It is also a good idea to wipe the “engine tongue” with alcohol.

Use hair removal wax

{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/1/1d/Remove-Sideburns-%28For-Girls%29-Step-6-Version-3.jpg/v4-728px-Remove -Sideburns-%28For-Girls%29-Step-6-Version-3.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/1/1d/Remove-Sideburns-%28For -Girls%29-Step-6-Version-3.jpg/v4-728px-Remove-Sideburns-%28For-Girls%29-Step-6-Version-3.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight” :345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}

Buy a facial wax hair removal kit. The skin on your face is more delicate than the rest of your body, so you need to choose a product that says it’s safe for your face. If you don’t want to clean up spilled wax, you can look for a roller wax or a product that is a wax-ready patch. ^{[6] X Research Sources}

Most at-home waxing kits are microwaveable, so you can easily heat them up in the kitchen.

{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/3/3b/Remove-Sideburns-%28For-Girls%29-Step-7-Version-3.jpg/v4-728px-Remove -Sideburns-%28For-Girls%29-Step-7-Version-3.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/3/3b/Remove-Sideburns-%28For -Girls%29-Step-7-Version-3.jpg/v4-728px-Remove-Sideburns-%28For-Girls%29-Step-7-Version-3.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight” :345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}

Tie your hair back. It will be annoying if the wax gets on the rest of your hair, so be sure to tie your hair back. Tie your hair into a ponytail and use a headband to hold your hair behind the hairline. Remember to clip the bangs too, leaving only the sideburns that you intend to remove. ^{[7] X Research Sources}

If you don’t have a headband, you can use bobby pins or a speculum to hold your hair.
You can also use a scarf to tie the rest of your hair to prevent entanglement.

Wash one’s face. Make sure to wash off any cosmetics, oils, and dirt on the skin. Waxing can leave the skin vulnerable to bacteria, so it’s important that the skin around the sideburns is clean. ^{[8] X Research Sources}

If you have sensitive or oily skin, you should apply a little talcum powder or baby powder to the skin that is about to be waxed.
Do not use wax if you have just taken a prescription or over-the-counter retinoid within the past 10 days, or the wax can cause the skin to peel off along with the hair.
Do not use wax if the skin is sunburned, peeling, or torn.

Shorten long sideburns. For optimal results, sideburns must be of the proper length prior to waxing. Normally, the length of the hair should be about 1 cm long. Use small scissors to trim the sideburns to the appropriate length. Note that this method may not remove hairs shorter than 6mm. ^{[9] X Research Source}

{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/0/0c/Remove-Sideburns-%28For-Girls%29-Step-10-Version-4.jpg/v4-728px-Remove -Sideburns-%28For-Girls%29-Step-10-Version-4.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/0/0c/Remove-Sideburns-%28For -Girls%29-Step-10-Version-4.jpg/v4-728px-Remove-Sideburns-%28For-Girls%29-Step-10-Version-4.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight” :345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}

Heat the wax. Be sure to follow the instructions on the product packaging. It is especially important not to overheat the wax to avoid burns. You can test a little wax on the inside of your wrist to make sure the temperature is right. This area of skin is thin and can be used to estimate whether the wax is too hot to use on the face. ^{[10] X Research Source}

Apply wax on the sideburns. Wax kits often come with a wax applicator that you can use to spread along the hairline. Apply wax in the direction of hair growth, trying to cover the entire hairline to ensure that all unwanted hairs are removed. Remember that you won’t be able to wax the same area twice without irritating the skin. ^{[11] X Research Source}

To make it easier to apply wax to each strand of hair, you should place your other hand on the cheekbone area to stretch the skin away from the temple while applying the wax.

{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/c/cf/Remove-Sideburns-%28For-Girls%29-Step-12-Version-3.jpg/v4-728px-Remove -Sideburns-%28For-Girls%29-Step-12-Version-3.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/c/cf/Remove-Sideburns-%28For -Girls%29-Step-12-Version-3.jpg/v4-728px-Remove-Sideburns-%28For-Girls%29-Step-12-Version-3.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight” :345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}

Apply the fabric strip over the wax. Make sure the wax is still warm, and let it sit for about 10 seconds. Run your fingers along the length of the tape to adhere to the wax. ^{[12] X Research Source}

Peel off the ribbon. For best results, you should use one hand to stretch the skin, with the other hand to peel the cross band upwards in the opposite direction of hair growth. If you don’t stretch the skin, you can cause bruises on your face. Pulling the band against hair growth is to prevent hair breakage in this step. ^{[13] X Research Source}

Skin soothing. The skin around the sideburns will be red and perhaps slightly swollen after waxing. You can apply a paper towel soaked in a mixture of 1 part low-fat milk to 1 part cold water for 10 minutes. The lactic acid in milk has a soothing effect on the skin. You can apply it every few hours. ^{[14] X Research Source}

Instead of a milk-water mixture, you can use an over-the-counter moisturizer, antibacterial or hydrocortisone cream, or aloe vera gel. There are also soothing creams available in some wax sets that you can use in place of the above creams.
Be sure to avoid any strong products such as alpha hydroxy acids, retinp, or benzoyl peroxide for at least 1 day while the skin is healing.
Remember to apply sunscreen to the skin around the sideburns, as newly waxed skin will be more sensitive to the sun.

Use hair removal cream

{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/9/93/Remove-Sideburns-%28For-Girls%29-Step-16-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Remove -Sideburns-%28For-Girls%29-Step-16-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/9/93/Remove-Sideburns-%28For -Girls%29-Step-16-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Remove-Sideburns-%28For-Girls%29-Step-16-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight” :345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}

Choose a hair removal cream (or depilatory cream). These products use chemicals to break down the protein in the hair, causing the hair to fall out of the hair follicle. The most important thing to consider when choosing a cream is the sensitivity of your skin. You should choose one that is formulated specifically for facial hair removal and contains vitamin E or aloe. ^{[16] X Research Source}

Hair removal products come in creams, gels, rollers and sprays. Roll-on and spray-on products are less messy, but with cream products you can apply a thick layer.
If you have sensitive skin, consult your dermatologist about the right hair removal cream for you.

Test the cream on the inside of your wrist first. To avoid an allergic reaction, you should test a small amount of the cream on your skin, wait for the time indicated on the package, and then wipe it off. Wait at least 24 hours to make sure you’re not allergic to the cream – the chemicals can be very strong, because in the skin there are the same proteins present in the hair that the chemicals will break down. ^{[17] X Research Source}

Wrists are a good place to test the cream, because the skin on the wrists is as thin and vulnerable as the skin on the face.

Tie your hair back. A thick cloth headband will be a great cover for the hairline so you don’t accidentally remove other hairs. Make sure the sideburns are separated and not pulled back so you can apply the cream correctly.

Check the skin around the sideburns to make sure there are no open wounds, abrasions, burns, or flaking. Hair removal creams can irritate or cause chemical burns on already damaged skin.
Remember to remove makeup and wash your skin thoroughly before applying cream.

Apply a thick layer of cream on the sideburns. Use a dot to spread the cream instead of rubbing or rubbing it into the skin. Apply on both sides of the sideburns at the same time, and remember to wash your hands thoroughly afterwards. ^{[18] X Research Sources}

Hair removal creams can have a strong, almost sulfurous smell, and this is normal. If you are sensitive to odors, choose an unscented product.

{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/8/8d/Remove-Sideburns-%28For-Girls%29-Step-20-Version-3.jpg/v4-728px-Remove -Sideburns-%28For-Girls%29-Step-20-Version-3.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/8/8d/Remove-Sideburns-%28For -Girls%29-Step-20-Version-3.jpg/v4-728px-Remove-Sideburns-%28For-Girls%29-Step-20-Version-3.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight” :345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}

Wait for the cream to absorb. Read the instructions carefully to know how long it takes for the cream to absorb; Usually it will take about 5-10 minutes. Do not exceed the recommended time, or you may suffer severe burns. Many creams advise users to check after 5 minutes to see if the pores are loose enough for hair loss. ^{[19] X Research Source}

A slight tingling sensation is normal; But if the skin starts to burn, you need to immediately wipe off the cream, then wash the area with cool water and mild soap.

Wipe off the cream. Use a cotton ball or washcloth dipped in warm water to gently wipe off the cream, and the hair will fall out with the cream. You may have to wipe a few times to remove all of the sideburns. ^{[20] X Research Source}

Make sure to wash off the cream so that it doesn’t continue to react on the skin.
Hair can start to grow back in 1 week. During this time, your skin should be smooth and free of ingrown hairs. ^{[21] X Research Source}
Moisturize the skin after waxing. Most hair removal creams come with a soothing lotion to use after waxing.

Use professional service

Visit the salon to have your sideburns professionally waxed. If you are not confident about bleaching your sideburns at home, you can go to a salon or spa to have it done by a professional. Be sure to choose a salon that is clean and has a licensed esthetician and hair removalist. ^{[22] X Research Source}

Ask friends and family if they know of a good salon. This is the best way to know which salon is professional and trustworthy.
If you don’t know anyone who usually waxes professionally, you can go online to read reviews of salons and spas near you to consider and decide.

Consult your doctor about laser hair removal. This procedure uses heat to destroy hair follicles in the early stages of hair growth. The results of this method are permanent, but since not all hairs are in the early stages of growth, this method requires multiple treatments to remove all sideburns. It usually takes 2-8 treatments to get rid of unwanted sideburns permanently. ^{[23] X Research Sources}

This trick only works for people with contrasting skin and hair colors, i.e. light-skinned people with dark hair. Hair follicles will not absorb heat from the laser if you have dark skin and light hair. ^{[24] X Research Source}
Remember to research carefully before choosing a laser hair removal facility. The laser can cause permanent damage if used incorrectly, so you need to choose a dermatologist or plastic surgeon who is well trained to do this procedure. ^{[25] X Research Sources}
If the person performing the procedure is a nurse or esthetician, make sure you have a doctor’s supervision.
Ask how many operating machines the salon has. The more options you have, the more likely you are to get the most effective treatment. ^{[26] X Research Sources}

Find an electrolysis specialist to remove sideburns. In electrolysis, a very small probe is used to destroy hair follicles with an electric current. The hair (here, the hair) will be plucked out and usually does not grow back. Just like in the laser method, the hair/hair must be in the right stage to be removed, so you may need several treatments. Some cases require up to 20 treatments. ^{[27] X Trusted Source US Food and Drug Administration Go to source}

Electrolysis is effective on all hair and skin colors.
It is very important to find a reputable and experienced professional to perform this procedure. Poor workmanship can lead to infection, scarring, and discoloration of the skin.
Electrolysis when done correctly has been shown to be a safe and permanent hair removal solution.
