Molly-Mae Hague warns she is growing 'beard hair' after getting common beauty treatment

Molly-Mae Hague says she has been left with a 'full beard' after a hair removal treatment went wrong.

The former Love Island star and current Creative Director of Pretty Little Thing took to YouTube to explain how a simple dermaplaning treatment to get rid of "peach fuzz" left her with excess facial hair.

Dermaplaning is a common treatment meant to exfoliate the skin and gets rid of dirt and vellus hair, reports the Mirror.

The PrettyLittleThing creative director told her followers: "If you guys can see that I do have a little bit of a beard, we're not talking about it.

"I need to speak to you guys about my battle with dermaplaning - and I wish I never got dermaplaning. I basically have a full beard now."

Explaining dermaplaning she said: "it's a type of facial, or you could actually do it yourself with a type of razor but I had a dermaplaning facial, where they remove the peach fuzz from your face to make your face so baby smooth and so soft."

While trying out make-up in the video, posted on Wednesday, the influencer said: "Basically with the dermaplaning, I got into the habit of having a dermaplaning facial and my peach fuzz just grows back at rapid levels now.

"It was meant to sort of prevent it from growing back and mean that it would grow back less or something, but with any hair removal, like when you shave your legs, it means you have to start shaving them more, when you start shaving your arm pits like when you're a younger girl, early teens, it means you have to always shave them."

"It's just one of those things, when you start doing it you can't really stop.

"So yeah you could say I wish I never started the dermaplaning because I'm not the sort of person who keeps up regularly with my beauty treatments."

Earlier this week, the 22-year-old showed off her new short hair cut on Instagram, revealing that her trademark long blonde tresses are no more. Fans complemented Molly-Mae on the new look, describing it as "gorgeous", while her boyfriend boxer Tommy Fury was one of the first to comment, writing: "blessed".

The reality TV star has also been in the news this week, after an actor who she accidentally hit with her windscreen wipers at a drive-in horror movie experience, responded to Molly's Instagram video of the unfortunate accident.

Molly-Mae shared the clip twice on her Instagram Stories last weekend and wrote atop the clip: “Sorry to the actor.”

Cinema worker Leigh Simpson, who played the zombie, took to social media to address Molly’s video, and criticised her reaction to the clip. In a video on TikTok, Leigh showed a picture of herself in character, and fired back at Molly’s laughter.

“This is a message for the 6.2 million people who follow Molly-Mae on Instagram,” she said. “Did anyone feel sorry for the zombie who got hit in the face with a wind screen wiper, because it was me,” Leigh added.
