Hair Removal

[Guest Rachel2170]

Quick question....I made my first appointment for laser hair removal of my face and neck. Is it better to do laser first then follow with electrolosis (sorry if misspelled)? I went back to past posts but didn't see a specific recommendation. Any insight would be much appreciated.

I have read and heard that it is best to start with some laser treatments and then finish with electrolysis. Laser will get a larger area but is not officially recognized has permanent hair removal, but it can be cheaper and get rid of a lot of the hair. Eventually though lasers effectiveness decreases and that is when you jump in with electrolysis’s to finish the job. Also Electrolysis is considered the only Permanente hair removal.

Hmmm... if this gets submitted twice, sorry. I am posting this from my phone and I had to take a call and when I came back what I had typed was gone.

Anyways I was told to have one or two laser treatments done to thin the hair a little (or a lot if you're lucky) and then follow up with electrolysis. I have a friend who helped me out in my first transition and this is what she swore by for the speediest results.

It couldn't hurt any worse than the actual treatments themselves eh?

Good luck and hope this helps

I've had 65 hours of electrolysis.

I didn't do any Laser because it works very poorly on light/blond/gray hairs and that is what I have...

If you opt for any laser at all....do it first. Let it get all the hair that it possibly can. Then finish up with electrolysis..

Don't forget...hair grows in cycles and when you get one treatment some may be sleeping and come up later...it's not new growth...just awakened hair...

I won't argue the permanency of laser....some swear by it and some have had poor to no results at all....

It's an expensive procedure to end up with no results!

Good luck, Hon
