bumpy bump for misspissed, with a laser hair removal inquiry

[maddy29]

If you have light hair, they will probably tell you not to waste your money. Well, any reputable place will. They told me it wasn't worth going over my whole thigh, because they just weren't hearing any "ZAPs" which meant nothing was getting lasered.

the laser is attracted to the darkness of the pigment, so if you have light hair, the laser may not pick it up.

It IS expensive, and I have a feeling it'll be even more than I bargained for. I'm doing my legs and bikini line for $550/treatment. And I figure about 4-5 treatments for the legs, possibly more for the bikini. so yikes, it's a LOT of money. But, to think of never having to shave again, or buy razors or have bumps or stubble...so nice. After I shave, my legs itch SO BAD for 2 days, at times I've scratched them til they bled. So, shaving is really a dumb thing, as far as I can see-for me.

Ah I'm ramblin'

It's been about 10 days since I had my first treatment. I've noticed that some of the hairs don't seem to be growing. And, some are just falling out randomly. So that's exciting! I'm going again on Friday for them to do the spots they missed (due to confusion about what I was actually paying for)
