I like the tweezerman metal dermaplaner.

I have a friend who I'd guess has PCOS and has some facial hair. She's funny and warm and great to talk to and I've never cringed. If I were her spouse or partner I'd probably have an opinion about it, but I'm not.

I was curious too - a few places came up when I put “electrolysis” in Apple Maps.

Does the Braun thing really work? I have naturally blonde hair but get some black chin hairs. Would it work on me?

You shave in between appointments. It doesn't need to be especially long to get zapped, but they do need to be able to find the hair to put the needle into the follicle.

Did this work for others? I did 6 sessions of lasers and 6 months later it's as bad as ever. I am white, very pale with black hair so I thought I was the perfect candidate. I'm so annoyed because it took a lot to go to 6 appts and the cost as well.

I think electrolysis might be what I need. I do not like shaving and I don't think it looks good.


My cousin had electrolysis and they still mostly grew back. In her case, I think it was hormonal.

Electrolysis is the only guaranteed, permanent hair removal. Laser works for some people but not everyone.

No! Do not embrace! Just dermaplane every night with a small electric razor and mag mirror.

I take an eyebrow razor to mine but I only have a few hairs.
