Problem Finding An Electrologist


Guest Opal

Recommended Posts

I had found an electrologist and called her this week, but sadly, she has gone out of business because of the economy. She also was experienced with laser hair removal, and close by. She was very personable on the phone, and we did discuss various things about permanent hair removal. Wish I would have contacted her about three years ago. Between my back and my face, I probably would have kept her in business.

I then checked around in the town I see my therapist in. She had mentioned one place, so I went by and was told that they don't do either type of hair removal, and didn't know of anyone who did in the area any longer.

So I guess its just concentrate on my voice training for now, and try not to get too depressed about it.

Hugs, (I'll try hard not to whisker burn you)

Opal, do you have any GLBT groups any your area? If so reach out to them and ask who they use. That is how I found the electrolysis lady I use. They usually have had the same problem finding one and more than willing to share theirs with you. That way you can find out how good they are at the same time. Good Luck in finding one.

Hi Sarah,

This is a pretty rural area, so as far as my therapist and I know, there are no GLBT groups nearby. I hope sometime to travel up to Denver and attend a meeting of some kind, but I don't have any relatives nearby to watch my dad, and I hate to keep imposing on my neighbors to watch him. After posting, I did happen to think about the Junior college. They have a cosmology program. They might know of someone. Somehow, I don't think getting out my welder to do electrolysis would be a good idea. :)

Hugs,

Opal

Opal, you may have to do a little traveling to get the treatments you need, but the good thing is that you may not need to see the electro more than once every 2-3 weeks. Not great, but doable, I hope.

Keep looking, though. You never know when a new place will open up.

Hi Carolyn!

Unfortunately, I'm pretty limited in how far I can travel. I can still start working on my 'voice', so I think I just need to stay patient and not get too discouraged over this. Thank you Dear, for your support and concern!

Hugs,

Opal

Opal, Hon.....

I live in rural Ohio...

On Saturday mornings, I get up at 5:30 and drive a little over an hour north to my electrologist.

And since it's such a distance, we do 3 hours at a time!

It's doable...

Also, to find one...

Google your state and LGBT organizations....

That is how I found my prescribing doctor!

They usually have a line on things that we need.

It's worth an e-mail....

Good luck, Dear!

      I came up with a new strategy.  Replace the good 2 year old car we bought used with something that suits me. New or used but has to suit me this time and I’ll hang on to the old ford as long as it starts and runs for going to work when wife needs @ car.  Oh and yes she could drive the ford too, she’s done it many times in the past.  Movable pedals and seat combine to get here where she needs to be.  Now I just have to sell her on that idea.     now starts the search all over again but I can double my top range!

      Sup singly, a superintendent prevented a student within the transgender community from changing current name, to the new name in which the student identifies with, I don't know how far back this story goes, but if you Google it under Oklahoma along with "student name change" the article should pop up. I'm not transgender, but I can relate to the process of legally getting a name change done, it's a lot of paperwork from court, a lot of traveling, and expenses depending on the laws from each state.

      No one seemed to pay attention to me other than a young woman who complimented me on my skirt and an older gentleman who smiled at me as we passed each other.

      Wow, I guess it’s the dat to be in trouble.  I’ve been hit twice by the ASM today and it’s my day off.  Why didn’t you, followed latter with a where is the.  Made me realize that I do t want to continue working long enough to pay for it. I guess I’ll just to have to stick with my 20 year old car for now.   I suppose sooner or later only one of us won’t be able to drive anymore.  Since I am older you might think it would be me but at this time i am the one that does all the driving except when she goes to church or the store when I’m at work.  She hasn’t driven anywhere since February and hasn’t driven more than 10 miles in perhaps a year.  Yet the “good” car was purchased for her not for me because she couldn’t drive the Jeep which we bought strictly for her because she wanted it.  But it turned out I was the one that really liked it.  Can’t win.

      Had one like that one time that would bite you on occasion.  Got rid of that thing quickly.

      I have been told that I "pass" better than I realize. I hope that is true.

      Good morning :)   I have coffee today, but the cup keeps leaking (I guess the cap isn't able to fully seal or something), so I keep having to wipe up the sides lol   Almost finished all my missing work for school, which means if I do a bit more work, I should be out of trouble with my parents (not even that bad of trouble compared to when I was younger, more just an annoyance haha)
