I had electrolysis done on my underarms about 15 years ago, when my friend was training to be an esthetician. OH MY GOD! IT HURT!! Like a red hot needle being held in my arm for several seconds, over and over again.
I'm not that hairy to begin with, and I didn't have underarm hair for a long time, but it seems to be coming back these days. Not very much, but I now wax them when I get my legs waxed.
I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to have laser hair removal, but I'm so broke, there's no way I could justify it
My friend has been having laser treatments on her legs for almost a year. She's the kind of girl who has to use about three razors per leg when she shaves, she says it's a nightmare. She's super pale, though, with dark hair, but she's really unhappy with the results so far. She says it just keeps coming back. She goes for three hour sessions at a time, and said it's really really painful. She said she broke down and cried last time during her session, because it hurt so bad. Poor thing! Hopefully it will get better.
