How much does electrolysis cost in ur city for Removing facial hair?

Can we bother you to go the extra mile for us and actually spell out your words? Thank you, hugs, Devlyn

Thank you Devlin. One of my nieces does that and it drives me nuts as well.

As for electrolysis in this area, S England, the best information I can find is, From £6.50. But I suspect that is a guide as the information relates to full beauty treatments.

That, sadly, is part of the penality you pay for living in an area obsessed with its Navy and it's history.

A rather better bet is London where I found a place offering a 15 minute, specifying electrolosis, for £25.00

$50 per hour.

$50 per hour.

which city?

Watched ..... U r popular..... The cost is not the point it's the pain associated with the process I could only tolerate a couple of sessions.... with HRT and a fair complexion I have to remove facial hair every 2 days and that's mainly for myself ( I don't like the feeling of a course face) legs, arms, chest, doesn't need maintenance, it just stopped growing...... Ye Harr....lucky to be me.

$30/15 mins (Seattle area)  :o

65 an hour in Shoreline (Just north of Seattle).

$55 per hour in Las Vegas

My place in Chicago area goes at 20$ increments per 15min.

Everyone in my group undergoing facial hair removal are going the laser route. A place nearby does a flat rate for the face I believe of $1500. Or in other words 30 Hrs or so of electrolysis which is likely far short of what will be needed. It's also over and done with a a few short sessions, nearly instant results all over, and a LOT less painfull

The places I've found in Portland, OR (where the 90s are alive and well) sit at around $75/hour on average. Laser seems to average around $95/hour. I'm definitely getting electrolysis for my face, since most of it is either red, or gray, but the rest of me is definitely getting lasered. When I can afford it. :P

I was seeing Jean Carter in Edmonds at $60 an hour several years ago and finally quit, though I'm still not cleared, $65 an hour is right in the ballpark though. Are you going to Roberta Smith at Aurora Village Med. Ctr?

Thanks, maybe I need to see her too and get rid of the rest of this crap. Had to shave yesterday, cut my chin and had an "Oh G-dammit moment over it!" Thank God for a styptic pencil, I hate it when that happens, I need to finish my electrolysis!

$90 an hour in Phoenix at a well known place..   :'(   If someone knows of anyone reputable in the area for cheaper, please let me know... I don't mind paying what's fair, but I hate the feeling of being taken advantage of...

Another question is, How many times (and how often) does it take for Electrolysis ("Ele") to be really thorough in it effects?

It's just a thought, but I wonder if we might be more successful, not to mention, more confident, to concentrate upon finding and trying out new ways to deal with it ourselves, rather than worrying about something so expensive and which is so unreliable.

There are many different types of electric shavers available. We need to finds the one that suits our own skin type. A plug in one for the morning clean, a small battey one for tidying during the day. Just and example.

I think Janet has been using a epaulator with some success.

Just some food for thought really.

This brings to mind how even cis women are known to do this sort of thing. My wife tells of how on a retreat she saw the church secretary, a petite middle aged cis woman pull our an electric razor in the women's room and give her face a mow. No one would have even known she had any facial hair before that incident!  :D
