When you determine that you would like to remove or reduce your facial hair, consider consulting with your physician. They should be able to recommend and discuss various options, as well as provide warnings regarding the risks. Each of the above procedures has associated risks. Before undergoing any, it is a good idea to consult with your doctor about those associated health risks. For example, electrolysis cannot be used if you have a pacemaker. You and your doctor will also need to consider underlying health conditions. There are a number of conditions, some benign and easy to treat while others can be more worrying, which can cause more hair growth or hair growth in unusual areas.  Hormone fluxes, which can cause changes like these, are associated with age (making young teen girls and older women more prone to this problem). Hair changes can also be caused by tumors in the glands which control hormones or in response to pregnancy or certain medications. Look out for other symptoms associated with hormone disorders (like irregular periods, weight gain, acne, or hair loss). Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a common hormone condition that affects up to 10% of women and is a cause of unwanted hair (also known as hirsutism).  Medicines used in the treatment of PCOS can significantly improve excess hair problems.

summary: Ask your doctor about recommended treatments. Consult about associated risks. Consider underlying health conditions.

When moving a hive longer distances, it is important for all of your bees to be contained inside. For best results, plan to move your hive during the night or before dawn. Staple a piece of #8 hardware cloth over the entrance to your hive. If the bees are becoming agitated, use smoke to keep them calm. Avoid leaving the hive sealed for longer than 1-2 hours, especially during hot weather. Slide a ratchet strap around the sides of your hive from bottom to top. Thread the strap through the bottom of the ratchet until it feels taught. Crank the ratchet until the hive feels solid and secure. Slide a dolly under your hive, tilt it back slightly, and roll the hive to your vehicle. With the help of a friend, lift your hive into a truck bed or van. It is important to keep the hive as level as possible during this process. Use additional ratchet straps or rope to secure the hive in the vehicle. You want to be sure the hive will not tip over or slide around during the move. Remove any rope or ratchet straps that held the hive in your vehicle. With the help of a friend, place the hive on the ground. Use a dolly to deposit the hive in the correct place. Remove the ratchet straps and hardware cloth. After you move the hive, your bees will need to completely reorient themselves and establish new foraging patterns. Do not disturb the bees for 3-5 days after moving the hive.

summary: Plan to move your hive when it is dark outside. Block the entrance to your hive. Secure your hive with a ratchet strap. Lift the hive into your vehicle. Secure your hive in your vehicle. Place the hive in the new location. Leave the hive alone for a few days to let the bees readjust.

The Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, has received multiple reports from consumers who experienced long-lasting and severe side effects from the application of henna for temporary tattoos. Side effects include, but are not limited to, red lesions that are raised and weeping, loss of pigmentation of the skin, blisters, increased sunlight sensitivity, redness, and permanent scarring.  These reactions can occur immediately after getting a temporary tattoo using traditional red henna or "black henna." Reactions from temporary henna tattoos can also occur up to two or three weeks after receiving the tattoo. You can also experience adverse side effects from hair dye that contains “black henna.” If you are purchasing henna to use at home on your skin or hair, make sure you examine each ingredient listed on the label. Avoid any color additives in henna dyes to be used on the skin. If you are getting a henna tattoo from a tattoo artist or your hair dyed by a professional, make sure you inquire about the ingredients in the dye they will use on your skin or hair. Ask specifically about the inclusion of p-phenylenediamine, or PPD, and avoid getting a tattoo with this additive. Children can be particularly sensitive to henna. Skin sensitivities and allergic reactions to henna can occur in children.  Children with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency are at particular risk, as applying henna to the skin of children with this condition can cause a life-threatening condition called hemolysis. Seek immediate medical attention if a child with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency has been exposed to henna.
summary: Understand that using henna on your skin or hair is not necessarily safe. Read product labels carefully. Avoid using henna on all children.
