Hair removal.  Ugh.  A chore that I loathe.  The less time spent the better.

As Wile E Coyote discovered, the Acme catalog is filled with contraptions for torturing it's users.  First I hacked my skin countless times with an Acme razor.  Then I burned it *exactly once* with Acme depilatory goo.  Ouch!  Then there was the Acme rotary tweezer depilation gadget that literally rips hair by the root.  Masochistically, I became enamored with this torture device because of it's longer lasting results.  Not ideal, but 2-3 weeks beats 2-3 days.  I'll not talk about the many ingrowns.

After years of torment, I discovered the dermatology clinic at UCSD Healthcare.  With their state-of-the-art lasers, my body hair was banished forever.  That was in 2018.  No regrowth.  No time wasted on hair removal.  Nirvana!

It sucks having to get rid of any hair anywhere.

I was a lather of sweat after my last facial laser session.
It was quite embarrasing the amount I was sweating.

It hurt a bit but the pain isn't so bad, it's just the sudden stings.

The young lady looking after me was really empathetic.

I'm sure I have another person who knows what I am.

Despite the pain, I walked out euphoric.

The pad and cream I used to clean my face was covered with black ejected hairs, and after shaving the next day my face hasn't been smoother since I was a child.

I know I'm going to be stuck with grey regrowth, but for now the lack of dirty shadow on my face is really making me happy

I usually just lather them up with shaving cream and shave after showering. I usually do the bottom part. The thighs are a little trickier but I shave them usually during the warmer seasons when I wear shorter things.

I think HRT helped to thin the hair out a little.

I waxed my legs at the beginning on my journey. There's something magical about putting lotion on waxed legs after you get out of the shower. I'm thinking about getting them waxed as a "summer thing."

After lots of practice, I'm a pro leg shaver. In the bath is easiest but the shower works, too. Five minutes in the bath but mind you, I'm not very hairy, though also not on HRT.

Same, in the bath all the way, it opens up the pores nicely and is just easier, no need for gel or anything. Nothing else gets my pins as smooth. I enjoy doing it. No bath in my new home though so that is something I will need to rectify!
