would you be offended by this gift?
I got a groupon deal today that is a really good deal on laser hair removal...something like six sessions for $199. I was thinking of getting it for my grandma for Christmas. She kinda has that old lady 'stache going on. Would you be offended if someone gave you a gift like that?

YES!! I was actually given an eyebrow waxing kit for Christmas from my Aunt in middle school and was pissed. It's like saying your eyebrows look like crap, and you need to take care of it. Presents are supposed to be fun!
Now if she's talked to you about how much she hates her stache and wishes she could get rid of it, that's another story.0 -
Yeah, I would be. I would be thinking "OMG what else have people notice about me???"0
-
Don't subject an old lady to lasers.
Come on.0 -
Body hair is a personal choice, I really don't think it's appropriate to push your desires on her. Maybe she is comfortable with her facial hair the way it is?0

she hasn't commented on it...but I have heard some of the people at the nursing home comment on it. And well, I want my grandma to be smokin' at the nursing home...you all know how the residents in nursing homes are!0 -
If she doesn't take it, give it to me and switch the area to be lasered from upper lip to lower lips!0
-
If Grandma doesn't want it, I'll take it!!0

Haha, this ^^
I would be offended if it isn't something I've mentioned to someone. If my boyfriend got me that I would be STOKED because I mentioned that as something I would like to have done. If someone out of the blue chose to do it because they thought I needed it, I'm afraid that would be really evident. Tread lightly when giving beauty gifts!0 -
As long as it worked on blonde/red hair, not at all. I wouldn't mind getting my back lasered.0

If Gran is in a nursing home she probably doesn't care about facial hair at this stage in her life... and the procedure at her age might be too stressful. Buy her a pretty sweater and spend some time with her that's the best gift of all.0 -
If she dont want it, send to me, Ive been wanting to lazer the hell out of, well nevermind0

^^^ huh :noway:0 -
wish i received gifts like this!!0

If she hasnt said anything about not liking the hair on her upper lip then I dont think it's a good idea.
And idk how old she is, but is it really safe for an older woman to be going under a laser?
I would say get her a different gift. Maybe use the laser hair removal on yourself instead, if that's something you'd be interested in.0 -

I also wouldn't give it as a gift unless she mentioned wanting to do something about it.0 -

I agree!0 -
At least you are not giving her a paper bag.0
-
I personally would not be offended but grandma...not so sure!0
-
Yeah what are the odds that gramma would actually use it? Whether my gramma had one or not...she seriously wouldn't care!0

I'm getting my grandma Magic Mike for Christmas. lol0

I know you have good intentions, but as someone who has been gifted a hair removal kit, I have to tell you it's the most uncomfortable feeling in the world. It left me feeling embarrassed and self conscious. I felt like I had to look really gross for her to feel the need to spend money on that for me. Like I wasn't taking care of myself well enough to meet other people's standards.0
