Cumulative electrolysis hours clocked...

[AbraCadabra]

Did anyone keep track of cum. hours electrolysis clocked at all?

I must be past the 200hr mark and the stuff keeps still coming up like evil weeds.

Must say though that have managed to stay of razor-blades for at least 3 month or more. Had expected this be coming to some stage of "maintenance". Yet I go there EVERY working day with SAT and SUN giving my face a rest.

Now I read, was it here some place, 350hr and still going! Sounds like pretty formidable and yet little is mentioned (unless looking in the wrong thread?)

How much longer of this torture, for crying out loud!

I've had two hours each week since last November, and that's only to clear my lips and chin.  My cheeks have not even been touched, nor has my throat.  I can tell you, you might ask your electrologist to purchase and use the Laurier Insulated Bulbous Probe (IBP).  It focuses the energy at the tip of the needle, instead of along the entire shaft, and provides more effective treatment of the hair follicles.

I have yet to return to electrolysis since being post-op. It has taken too long to get to this point, let alone do the rest of it.

I had 250 before post -op looking at another 500 and i haven not even statred.

I've had two hours, the first one good, the second one gave me a nasty reaction (each hour was with a different electrologist, who used different techniques).  I'm so scared of scarring because of the second one that I won't be going back for any more electrolysis in the near future.

I have had about 50 hours and am getting discouraged.  Where do I get the money to pay for 200 or more hours......I am getting 1 02 2 hours every other week.

[AbraCadabra]

Well that's good and bad.

Good that I not doing as badly I might have thought, and bad - that this sounds like the "Never  Ending Story"? OH NO!!!
Let's not spoil my birthday, sob!

Anyone can say here they are DONE,? But for the odd bi-monthly (old girl's) maintenance?

Also those too spooked (Zoë) what now? Back to shaving?!? NOOOOO!

I'm also asking about my 3 week op. stint in Phuket next week. To pluck or to shave?? For three weeks?

Any one to care and share?

Thanks,

"I'm also asking about my 3 week op. stint in Phuket next week. To pluck or to shave?? For three weeks?"

I plucked mostly while away but I never had the energy or care to keep on top of it, plus sitting down to pluck wasn't an option for me until around the 6-7week mark. Resting the mirror on my chest in bed was awkward and I could only get so much cleared. I ended up just thinking F it and let it go a little... but I wasn't the only one like that in the hotel... understandably!

Well I started way back in feb of 2007, doing two hours every other week.  Well except for this last year due to unemployment, where I only had oh 12 hours total.  But I have maybe another 10 hours and I should be done.  I've another 2 hours in a week.  I figure I'm around 200ish hours total,  but really I've lost count though.

Ah thanks hon,
girls be girls plugged or not. Make me feel better already. So no shaving then?
Actually hate the idea! Much rather plug. What about re-growth? No worse than shaving?
Haven't for month and don't feel like THIS again!
Thanks,
