bumpy bump for misspissed, with a laser hair removal inquiry

[roseviolet]

Ven, I've done a little research on this. The best source of info I've found so far is this FAQ from a hair removal forum. In your situation, though, I think they would recommend electrolisis over the laser. The laser seems to be used over a large area. But if it's small enough that you can actually count the individual hairs you want removed, then electrolisis is your best bet.

Octinoxate, check out the FAQ I linked to above. It says that you have to have multiple sessions because hair grows in phases. The treatments can get rid of the hairs that are actively growing. The extra treatments are used to get rid of the hairs that were dormant during previous treatments & have grown in since then.

A part of me is still interested in doing this on my calves. I've gotten a few reeeeeally painful in-grown hairs on my legs this week & I'm just so sick of this. But it's so expensive!
