I just shaved my sideburns off because I thought it looked really weird to be a girl and have dark brown sideburns. Now it all stubbly and I can't pull my hair up or anything. I was just wondering if there's a way I could make them look better? Or should I just leave me hair down for a couple months? Does the hair grow in darker and thicker?

It will not grow in thicker. I would just wear your hair down for a few months, or use a wide cloth headband that covers the area. What ever you do, don't use eyebrow pencil to draw it in. It will be more noticeable then.
Use dabs of gel to tame the stubbies until they grow out.
I stupidly shaved my sideburns for the past two months. I was tired of keeping up with it so I decided to let it grow back. What a mistake! Not only did it grow back thicker, it grew back weird and resembles a man's sideburns!
I'm not sure what to do now. The hair was fine before and now it's thick! I thought it was a total myth that the hair doesn't change but in my case it did. I'm too embarrassed to wear my hair up now. Any help or suggestions? Thanks!

I have done that before. A lot of women get their face waxed which includes that area so just let the hair grow back just a little bit and go get it waxed. It will last for at least 4 weeks and maintain it.
Relax. Your hair seems thicker and tougher because it is short. Let it grow and the sun will lighten it a little and it will get softer as it grows. Soon it will be as before.
Hair only seems thicker when it has been cut because the ends are blunt. Eventually it will return to its prior condition.
I stupidly shaved my sideburns because I did not like they way they looked. I now have to shave them on a daily basis as they are back growing very stubbly and leaving a dark mark.
I am also having the problem with my really short bits which I cannot shave and I have used many hair gels to try and keep they pasted down, but they are not staying still. What else could I use to help keep these down as when I have my hair up in a ponytail they are very noticeable and it really gets me down.
You will just have to be patient and let them grow out. I would pull my hair back as little as possible.
I stupidly shaved my sideburns and at the moment they are literally like fuzzy stubble. I know I'll be fine as long as I'm patient and get some hair growth spray, but I was just wondering how long that would take.
Keep your pores open and clean for nice, even hair growth. I wouldn't put anything on topically. I notice when I take biotin supplements, my hair grows super fast. Maybe give that a try.
I started shaving the side of my face instead of waxing and I got carried away and start shaving some of my real hair. Now I don't know what is my real hair and what is the hair on my face if you get that. Like I had side burns and side of face hair and ended up shaving both and got self conscious and shaved more which ended up shaving some of my real hair.
How far do I take it up on the side of my head? How far should a women shave the side of her face? How far up do you take up your side burns? Please help I'm clueless at this. Thanks.You can go to a salon for a consultation, there they can help you mark out your hair line and even consult you about your sideburns. There is electrolysis, bleaching, waxing and several different options for removing unwanted facial hair but mainly they can show you where your hairline starts and ends so you dont get confused should you decide to do it again.
I shaved off my sideburns because I was concious of them and now it's stubble. Do I leave them to grow out or keep shaving them to get rid of the stubble?
So I stupidly waxed my side burns because they looked ugly to me and I'm scared that it looks bad now as it is growing back. Will the hair be thicker? It feels hairier; is there a reason why?
It will feel weird for a day or two and then that feeling should go away. A tiny dab of a cream (moisturizer) meant for your face my help take the "edge" off of it (reduce the finger feel to it) if you really want to, but it is best just to let it go naturally. If you feel there are ingrown hairs and it is getting infected...that is a whole different issue...watch for warmth and redness and talk to your doctor if it persist. DO NOT mess with infections!!
It makes me crazy that society makes us gals self conscious of things like this and wish it didn't...but this "what is beautiful and what is not" is as old as the ages. Maybe it is my age (OLD), but I say embrace every unique part of you and don't try to change it!!! You are beautiful because you are YOU!!! Flaunt it!!
So at the age of 23 I became a tad depressed; thought I looked horrible everyday. I started to see my peach fuzz, did a little google and saw something which in my state pretty much said shave it off.
What a regret that was.
Has anyone done this, and managed to get their face back to original state/ peach fuzz back? When the hairs grow out they are sticking outwards which is making it very obvious. I don't want my fiancée to notice them as I fear he will see me as unattractive.
I did not like my sideburns at all. Then one day it occurred to me to shave them off. And I have an event in month and 10 days. Can I grow them back in time? Will it look natural when I grow it out until that time?
Please any tips you can give me to grow it back? Can I grow my sideburns like they were before in a month and 10 days?I'm a girl and I cut my sideburns by accident and now they are really short and straight. It looks awful. Any tips? I need it to grow back ASAP.
I used the hair removal cream for sideburns? Is it all right? Will the hair come out thicker?
