Had To Get Something Off My Chest

[Guest i is Sam :-)]

all my dang hair!!

aah much better, it's gonna be a nightmare to maintain but it'll be worth it.

I do unfortunately look peppered from up close, my hair is just that dark. I tried to do it with the epilator but I wussed out, it's just too much for this girl to handle. maybe in very small increments as it grows back.

Or possibly ideally if I can afford it and have some confidence I can get a full wax done, and possible get wasted first lol. and after a wax or two epilating ought to become less painful.

speaking of all this tho, when the heck is this whole, reduced, finer hair growth thing supposed to kick in? how low do I have to get my T???? Hopefully I'll get some more numbers this week, have a doctors appointment on wednesday. fingers crossed i'm sub 300, that would sure be nice.

First off, Honey...Donna Jean does NOT talk about epilators!

Eeeek! Get away from me with that thing!!!!!

But, softer, finer hair?

Well, I started at 425...YUCK.......

But now, I'm 25!

Yup! Nice fine hair..and slowly growing, too...LOVE IT!

Give the epilator a go, you'll come to love it

It does hurt at first, your body is not used to having its hairs ripped out. Remember to start on short hair, I made the mistake of attacking my arm hair when it was long 0.5-1.0mm is ideal, yes it still hurts but not as much as long hair. At first do as much as you can and take a rest, it took me 4 days when I first started, now I can remove all hair from the neck down in one sitting. Most places just tickle now with exception of the arm pits, backs of the knees, inner thighs and lower abdomen.

My twice weekly process, no T blockers or E for me yet

Hot bath to open the pores and exfoliate, do not do this after depilating OUCH!

Dry off and epilate

Cold shower to close the pores this is a bigger shock than ripping the hairs out

Dry off and moisturize, I use an 99.9% Aloe Vera gel which is nice and cooling

I do my arms and legs with the epilator, and once I'd managed it all once, which yeah took me days, I can maintain it every other day or whatever and it pretty much just tickles.

I was intending to do everything with the epilator, I trimmed it all first with clippers to about 3mm long, and then tried but the thing just snarled at me and it was late and I just really didn't want to have to suffer. I will however now have to try again with it tomorrow or the day after, cos now i'm just covered in stubble and it's gross. it's so much less painful when you're not pulling so many hairs out at once, I wish I could find a machine the same width but with far fewer tweezers.
