Hiding Hickeys

A uh… :ahem: *friend[/] of my wife would like to know if anyone has a quick method of getting rid of hickeys.

Anyone?

Turtlnecks. Makeup.

Those are cover-ups, to get rid of them, you can only wait, just like any other bruise.

Try putting a cold spoon on it to reduce any swelling. (Stick spoon in freezer for a little while to get really cold. Teen magazines say the spoon must be silver but I have no idea.)

To try and make it less obvious, tell her to use green-tinted make-up. The green will counter-balance the red.

"SWELLING??!?!?!"

Who’s giving you hickeys, hon? Superman?

I’ve heard that leeches are good for removing bruises. :smiley:

Really, I’m not kidding

Adhesive bandages.

You’d be surprised at the places you get accidents when you’re shaving.

Sorry to say, but there is no quick and easy fix
for a Hickey unless there is makeup involved.
Being male, i never had a problem with them, but
my mom ould always rag on me about it, saying it
wasn’t good for ya, because in essence, it is a
bruise. The method that i have used in the past
is an old one, but it works for me. Take a normal
everyday hair comb, and comb the Hickey a few times.
It seems to break up and heal alot faster that way
then if i didn’t comb it. Granted it still takes a
while for it to totally heal, but with me, it heals
within 36 hours.
I don’t know if this works for everybody, or just
me, because it’s very, and i mean very hard for
me to get a bruide to begin with. If you bruise
easy, you might not wanna try combing it. It might
make it worse.

I never tried to hide them, and only had a visable one once. Sense I played hockey and was a goaltender that I just took a puck off the neck. A few people actually bought it…

LOL! Actually, right after a hickey is, um, placed, some people find that the area swells slightly. I know that min…my friend’s does, anyway. But “she” has extremely sensitive and fair skin.
