ladies: laser hair removal?

[kittylikesmfm]

yeah..ditto on the laser thing. i've reasearched i throughly because i have very dark, course hair and am having electrolysis done. laser still hasn't been proven for long term regrowth rate, and actually sometimes there is regrowth from electrolysis from what i've read.

nad's sucks..lol..just point blank.(nad's is actually a very old form of hair removal from the middle east called 'sugaring') i found it was no where near sticky enough to remove pubic hair; it would take some but left i'd say around sixty percent. plus if you are doing it yourself you can't really pull the skin taut enough.

and just fyi on waxing. i alternate waxing and shaving. the same culprit for ingrown hairs whether waxing or shaving is an elliptical hair shaft (the follicle is round-charming little genetic slight to those of us with curly hair). most of us with curly hair get ingrown hair for that reason; and often once the hair changes direction in the follicle, you get the staph flare ups that cause the inflammation. and i have found that the worst ones i get are actually from waxing because the hair has so much farther to travel in the follicle than shaving; those are usually close to the surface as long as you catch them.
i read in another thread here, ugly vagina i think, about using deoderant after shaving and that does help by reducing the moist, warm environment that helps the staph.

anyway, good luck with it. for me i've decided electrolysis is worth the money.

Don't know anything about laser, but I had my first bikini was the other day. I wanted to start slow so I just had a detailed bikini instead of Brazilian. Well I do have curly hair and I have more ingrown hairs from waxing than I ever did with shaving. It totally sucks. I don't know if I will wax again, but I did ask hubby to get me laser sometime soon. Hopefully that will work.
