Title: removing facial hair
Post by: DanielleA on January 23, 2016, 04:38:28 AM
Hey peoples, I have been feeling a little sensitive today and got thinking about my last hair removal appointment. This was the second time I had been lasered by this particular lady and during the app' she dead named me even though I am known as Danielle there and then she avoided lasering the sideburns area of my face until I TOLD her to laser them. Anyway, I have had 9 app's with these people and my facial hair is still kinda thick. It has slowed down and become finer though.

I've had pronoun issues at the laser place I go to but I figure I only have a few sessions left so I will deal with it. Now not so much though since I pass consistently.

Maybe switch to electrolysis? Laser is not guaranteed to give permanent results anyways as hairs can grow back years after last session. Also, lighter hairs can't be effectively treated by laser.

What kind of laser machine do they use? I searched out a place that uses a high end machine. Some of the spa type places use something like a toy.

If you live in the Seattle area I can recommend a good place.  Just PM me if you want the info.  They are trans friendly and can take care of all of your laser or electrolysis needs. 

Laser or electrolysis can take many or few treatments depending on your hair/background.  It does work though.  I used to have enough facial hair stubble to pull up a layer of wood and now my cheeks are as smooth as a baby's booty.   Laser was my predominant method for hair removal with electrolysis being used on the hairs that weren't dark.
