Will waxing or using facial cream make peach fuzz hair thicker and have more hair?

My mom keeps telling me to leave it alone and that it will go away by itself, but I have been looking and it has not been going away instead there is more D: I'm 16 and the peach fuzz bothers me a lot. >.< What should I do in order to get rid of the hair and make sure that it doesn't come back. Also is my mom right?

Update:

Um... I'm a girl and the peach fuzz is dark so yea... I just really want it to be less noticeable

Update 2:

Well, my family all say that pulling them off well make it grow back more and thicker, especially my mom and cousin >.<

Update 3:

what would be a good hair remover cream??? Also my skin is kind of sensitive D:

Update 4:

Also, I'm worried about when I'm older when my skin is too sensitive to wax D: Also I'm scared of waxing...

    It certainly won't go away on its own. Removing hair won't make it grow back thicker, but it may seem that way if you use nair or shave because you cut a blunt edge on the hair so it's thicker than if it naturally grows and tapers to a point. Also, hair that has never been cut (especially light body hair) is typically somewhat sun lightened, so it may or may not appear darker (it's not like you've had the same hair on your lips, lashes, or brows forever; they fall out and regrow on their own all the time). There are rumors that tweezing and waxing hair makes it grow back thinner or stop growing back, but you will be disappointed if you expect that to be permanent or a very noticeable difference.

    You just need to decide whether or not you care to make facial hair removal a regular part of your beauty regimen. On a lot of women, it is barely necessary or only needs to be done infrequently.

    Edit: okay, I assumed you were female because a guy wouldn't expect facial hair to go away on its own...

    Using facial cream (depilatory) will not make it thicker. It is effective but it will come back though. I have never tried facial waxing as I am afraid of little red bumps. Do not shave.

    The only permanent treatments are things like electrolysis or laser but they are very expensive. And even so, there may be some re-growth.

    I only know that male facial hair grows faster when it is shaved because I am a dude.I really don't know about female facial hair.If you do wax it and it does grow back thicker,just keep shaving it every time it grows in and it is noticeable.

    It will be darker when it grows out because it has not been bleached by the sun (especially if you do it during winter time)and it will be thicker as it does not grow from the root but from the middle. I would advice you NOT to shave!!! If you just have peach fuzz why not tweeze it?? How much fuzz do you have??

    there is not real answer to this question.

    if you keep cutting it, the hair will grow back quicker.

    but, obviously, if you leave it alone, it will still be there.

    having facial hair is normal for guys(assuming), so you just have to deal
