Just had my second session, the lady came out with a couple of comments that didn't improve my mood.
-Gosh you've got big strong roots.
-Wow you've got a lot of hairs.
Anyone got any others?

Uh-oh, that's gonna leave a mark...
Or...
Just hold this tissue and put a little pressure right here...
What she should have said was: Hey, you know that numbing cream I charge you $80 for, the one you cannot afford? Ha, well, it's actually anorectal cream, and you can buy it online for $26 a tube, and use as much as you want.

I hate the 'scam' part of their profit scheme. LNX cream is very effective and affordable and she should have told me about it when I first started electro instead of watching me squirm in needless pain to protect her profits. Grrr!

Congrats ;D You're my first patient
Relax and make yourself comfortable, these restraints will only take a moment
Excuse me, but I need to ask the head tech a question about voltage requirements

On a slightly more positive note, I went for an electrolysis consultation last week and when the electrologist was doing a patch test at the end, she said that I had great hair for electrolysis and the hair was literally jumping out of the pores when the RF current was applied. Also I was relieved that the pain wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be.
