does electro work on pale hair?
>>6485249
Yes.
>>6485249
Yeah, laser doesn't.
I've got pale hair and skin so I just skipped laser completely.
My facial hair is really quite coarse
Hope that laser can help somewhat

It is I live in the Netherlands and was amazed how much cheaper it was in the US.
I think the pricing was like
> Upperlip 90 euro
> Face 120 euro
>>6485348
You will benefit more from laser when you hair is coarse. If you have white blonde fur on ur face you might be better of with electro, Black sturdy and coarse hair is best for laser. Resultwise.

How common is it for electro places to give deals for trannies since we get the whole body zapped?
>>6485468
You don't need whole body, your body hair is far easier to manage than your face

Electro - Thermolysis

Done with laser, 10 months in with electro. Very nearly done, just some fine hairs to clean up.
>How are the results?
I'm satisfied. I'd be finished by now but i can only afford 30 minutes a week so it's taken longer.
>Expensive?
Laser cost me $1400cad for 6 sessions. Electro is $69/hr.
>>6484414
what does a wax cost
>like if i want everything from my knees to my neck waxed
>>6490914
Why bother?
If you're going for something temporary like that do it yourself or use a hair removal cream
Electro is ridiculously expensive in the UK
>>6484414
Is lasers generally permanent as in, I get it done at 25 I'll still be hairless by 50?
Or does it grow back a little after a few years?
>>6496002
You'll need a touch up every 6-12 months.
>>6496002
You need top ups
Quite cheap and infrequent
i just came here to brag and say i have no facial hair so i dont need laser
>>6484414

>Expensive?
$900 CAN per full body session ;_;
>>6485479
I get ingrown hairs and razor bumps no matter what I do. Laser is the only option. Otherwise I look better with body hair.

How long did the color change take?
>>6497668
Happened pretty quickly. It started after a two months of cypro(self med), and it became mostly pale, then I switched to spiro and it stayed about the same until I added finasteride which didn't make it any pale-er(most was already as pale as it could get) but seemed to make it softer and grow slower, then my doc switched me to lupron and it got darker at first but then even more paler/slower growth/softer and thinner hairs than before. It's mostly invisible as long as I shave in the morning but I still hate the prickly feeling it causes and some of it still grows dark above my lip and under my chin.
Do keep in mind I started when I was seventeen the month before I turned eighteen, only started growing facial hair when I was 16, and had only recently became able to grow a full beard when I started, so YMMV.

how awkward is someone fiddling your special area for 150 hours? do you converse during the action to release tension?
Hey brehs is eating tofu a lot reduce body hair is broscience? I cant efford laser.
>>6498008
We talk. It's so painful I am sometimes choking on tears. It fucks with me to be honest. I feel like part of my ability to even process embarrassment is getting overloaded and burnt the fuck out, but I'll subject myself to anything for the best possible result.
I really hate it, but you just do it and then it's done till next week I guess.
Will electrolysis be paid by insurance in the US?
As a person who shaves DAILY, I've only ever gotten electro on my eyebrows.
It's incredibly painful because I have basically no pain tolerance. I can't stand even like 5 minutes of it.
>>6498507
It's 20 minutes
Just keep thinking about the end result
>>6484414
Tried IPL, with minmal results, almost a complete waste of time. 9 sessions, maybe 10% of hair disappered. Laser might be able to remove 10% more.
While my hair looks dark, most of the hairs are actually dark red-brown, so it doesn't work.
Tried like 12 hours of electro, but it was spread over my face, so it was completely pointless. You need about 30 hours over 6 weeks. So if you're doing less than 5 hours a week, you're wasting time and money.
Trying to save up €10k so that I can pay for marathon electro, which is required for any quick and good results. Obviously, I will get scarring from it, hopefully just not much.

Mine will cover genitals, but not facial.

Many surgeons require genital electrolysis before they'll go through with bottom surgery.
Some will just cauterize the hair away themselves.
