6Th Laser Session This Morning


Guest Sarah Michelle

As I am getting ready to go get more of that un-wanted hair removed from my face I can only think my 20 to 30 minute session doesn't compare to the 3 hour tour of pain Dee Jay is about to go through. Good Luck today Dee Jay.

Ouch Dee Jay!!

But as has always been said-being a woman is all about pain.

Good luck today. Each step brings you closer to your dream!!

Hey Sarah,

I am glad that you are making progress with the hair removal - don't try to compare yourself to Dee Jay - I think that she is going to miss these sessions (I worry about her sometimes)

I hope that your face doesn't look too bad right after each session - some people complain of swelling and excessive redness from laser treatments.

Love ya,

Sally

I only have a little redness after each session but it goes away within a couple of hours. It is all worth it to get rid of my facial hair.

Just got through my session but I was wrong in the amount of times I have gone. This was my 7th session. A little red but well worth it if more hair goes away for good

I started last may. The place I go only sees you once every 12 weeks after your third session to allow hair re-growth. I just forgot the amount of times gone.

Good luck, Sarah.

I have my sixth coming up in two weeks. It seems to be thinning out, but not nearly to the point where I can stop shaving.

I sure hope this is worth the cost. But you're right, better the 30 minutes than what Dee Jay and others go through with

electro.

errrr... girls (and JJ)

I just got back from an evaluation from my new electrolysis tech. She is nice and - well - sometimes I think I pass to well. She thinks I am female and was giving me advice - she herself said she got into the field because she had so much facial hair - very sympathetic.

I have only had previous work on my upper lip and my eyebrows. About 12 hours worth. Never had my face done so I was apprehensive.

She said she can clear my beard in about an hour - but we scheduled for two next week.

SALLY - don't tell those girls about the pain! Let them be surprised... hee hee. Actually, only the moustache and the eyebrows are really are painful - and that is in the sensitive areas like the under-nose area and in the thinner areas on the brows. It's tolerable and - IT IS WORTH IT!

Lizzy

Ummmm... Dee Jay does three hour sessions - is there this morning! She does have redness sometimes. I have it maybe for 30 minutes. Most people do well with electrolysis - its just so expensive!

I have my 10th session on the 23rd, but I go every 4 weeks. And I'm really starting to see a difference. Just wish I didn't have so much grey it would go faster

Like a previous post I made, I am about to start electrolysis also. I can't wait any longer to get rid of my facial hair, chest and belly hair. The sooner I get rid of it the better I will feel about myself and appearance. Maybe then I will show my face to everyone.

You can't possibly bee any worse off than me. I don't have alot of hair on the rest of my body but have always had a very full beard. 17 laser sessions and 24 hours of electro and I can STILL grow a beard like the Geico caveman :(

Wait for HRT - it gets rid of body hair (other than head, pubic, underarm and beard). TOTALLY lost the hair on my arms, legs and belly button. Never had it on my chest ot back. AMAZING what HRT does

Seconding what Elizabeth_K said. I know different people, respond differently to HRT, but about six months into it and I have noticed a thinning of the fine hair on my fore arms. It's been a long time now that I shave my body, so I have a pretty good idea of how it feels between shaves. (Under arms every days, I alternate between my belly & legs every other day and take the weekend s off). Not that I want try, but I am sure I could go a week no problem without shaving. The hair grows much slower and all that gross coarse hair is like gone.

With the cost of laser, it really is worth waiting to see how you respond to HRT before you do anything about body hair besides your face.

I'll THIRD what Elizabeth said about body hair. I WAS the Geico caveman on my body before hormones and after about 7 months, it's fading away. My forearms have become very fine and slow growing and I used to sell it for wig hair back when...

My ankles and lower leg are just smooth all the time, chest is really sparse and fine, so's the belly.

Save your dough on body hair removal until you see what happens. I had an estimate for a bunch of body hair laser treatments and now it's progressing nicely for free.

Hugs,

Becky

Sarah, Hon......

You're getting it done...I really DO want to see a pic soon....OK?

And my 3 hour sessions have been blown all out of proportion...

It's actually two 1 1/2 hour sessions separated by a 15 minute break!.....LOL

I wanna see!

      Allow me to add that people should think twice about posting pictures of themselves, with the facial recognition software that is out there.  Those in stealth or who are not fully out may discover they are suddenly and unwillingly fully out in ways they wish had not happened.

      Funny how when i read the topic name i thought you were asking about the study of plants and animals.  I'm a bit into that as a farmer at va time when a cell phone makes plant  for insect identification easier than it has ever been.    Now on to your topic.  I don't farm in the nude.  I have wondered at whether i would skinny dip as i did as a kid without thought of how my body might affect others.  The effects of hormones makes me different from the average person and perhaps i'm "neither fish nor fowl".  I would certainly depend on who my fellow passengers on that cruise would be.   Hugs,   Charlize

      This is also a relatively small forum and it can take a long time, seemingly, for someone to get around to replying to a post. 
    • Charlize
      I am also pretty sure that several of them are folks who are "trans curious".  Sometimes folks who are trying to find their own identity, are attracted to trans folks or who are simply interested in the trans community.   There may also be some who wish to do us harm which is why ......... I've just learned to smile figuring "i'm on candid camera".   I'm sure many of our younger members never experienced that show so my age is showing.   Hugs,   Charlize

      Most of those "guests" are web bots from China, Indonesia, France etc. looking us over. They are mostly benign.  All they can see or gain access to are the general forums.  Members should be careful not to post anything that could readily identify themselves such as real names, addresses, phone numbers, etc. They do not have access to our gallery, blogs or private messenger. They seem to haunt all forums. Not just us. I should add that they can make us known across the internet. That's how prospective members find us. Google would be a good example.

      I hope he gets what he deserves.

      Heck I didn't even know they could go up that high! I just have a four burner and one to keep stuff warm. What kind of pies did you make?

      That's all the matters.   Well me and the wife rode to Perkins for breakfast. As we were waiting for our food. Being it is Sunday There are a few gentleman in suits, my guess from church. I think to myself. I hope I never have to wear one of those monkey suits ever again. Now a nice dress maybe.   Hugs,   Kymmie

      From time to time I've looked at 'Who Is Online" and I have consistently noticed that members are ALWAYS outnumbered by Guests by a wide margin, sometimes, like a minute ago, by more than a 10:1 margin.  I have never seen that before on an internet forum.  It can be explained partly by the nature of what this is, that it draws the curious and they are certainly welcome to read here, and to join, but it leaves me with a feeling of being in a fishbowl.  I wonder who ARE these people?  Donald Trump, is that you? Biden? Sinwar? Putin?  We can only guess.

      So from time to time my brain gets a hold of information and puts it together with other information in weird way that get me thinking. I was reading about a nudes cruise that they are running out if Miami. It got me thinking that a transgendered person who is also a naturalist, has to be one of the most unlucky people alive. How does one manage that and does that ever come up? Not trying to make fun here, just genuinely curious. Things that make you go hmmmm....
    • MaeBe
      No luck there, really. She's getting a signing bonus plus a little extra that I don't think would cover much in the way of the move, but it is something!   Oh my! I am glad to hear you're not passing anymore blood. I hope they figure it out soon! How distressing!   @April Marie @KymmieL @Mirrabooka @Willow @Justine76, thank you for the kind words and thoughts! We told our best friends last night. There were many tears. Now it's all about the work: selling the house (my wife's friend's son said he may want to buy it direct!), a job (a former employee of mine wants to bring me over to his company--and they're based outside of Tacoma!), and moving (just started going through what we don't want bring and donating things). So things have kicked off.   I'm not so sure of the job, it would be good to work with my former employee (he's great) but I fear the culture may not be super welcoming to someone like me--and the guy doesn't know I'm trans in any way. But I'll give it a shot as my authentic self and see what happens!

      @LadypcnjI'm sorry. I know the feeling my mom thinks I'm going through a phase too although I didn't come out till April 17, 2023, so it was later in life. I was in denial majority of my life. I would love to hear more about this if you are comfortable sharing more of it.

      I love fashion. I have over 100 dresses and 74 pairs of shoes. My walk-in closet is full of other clothes as well. I'm getting more shorts soon. SHEIN is awesome for quality and price. Just when you get a leather coat from them it's just the shell not the liner. Most of my shoes are from Torrid because I wear size 13 women's.
