My 12 year old daughter has a dark moustache. She has fair skin. She started high school this year and the other kids are starting to pick on her about it. What's the best form of facial hair removal for someone that young. I feel like plucking or waking will be to painful. Shaving will make it worse. Hair removal creams or bleach might be to harsh for someone so young??

She may be a good candidate for laser, I've never tried it myself but I know it's fairly affordable these days and less maintenance than waxing/plucking.
There are also hair re moving creams but probably not ideal if her skin is sensitive.
Maybe explain all the options to her and about the process (and the reality of the pain) then let her make an informed decision.
(Waxing the upper lip hurts like hell and I have a fairly high pain tollerance)
Most places won’t do laser on a perosn under 16
Wax or thread. Removing it is best. I was the same and I bleached from about the same age. Eventually my hair stopped responding.
I second threading. Yes it hurts a bit but I'm a sook and just apply baby teething gel 20 mins before having my brows done.
My 12 year old daughter is exactly the same. We use to use facial bleach but now she uses the flawless hair removal wand, it basically shaves the hair but is painless. She’s too scared for lazer and doesn’t want the pain of waxing. Ill encourage her to get laser as she gets older.
I get laser treatment. It only takes the darker hair.
I have naturally fair hair, I have had 12 treatments and about 3 months since last treatment only the fluffy blonde hair on my legs has grown back. So it looks natural as the hair isnt noticeably missing.
