Have you had it done? What area? Did it hurt a lot? Did the hair grow back?

I am considering getting laser hair removal, but I am worried about hair growing back and having to redo it (read some people had to)

    I have had maybe 6 or so sessions and I love it. Sometimes the hair grows back faster than other sessions but apparently that's just the different growth cycles. They say it's better to have more grow back because then they are able to damage more hair follicles at once but none of it really hurts. It's kind of like a hot pinch but it's real quick. I have my armpits and a brazilian (but left some hair so I wouldn't look like a child). I highly recommend it. I bought a groupon (after reading several reviews on the location) and will probably buy another groupon if I have to have more sessions. Not shaving is not only super convenient but it's so nice to have smooth happy skin! DO IT!

    How long ago did you have the 6 sessions?

    It's worth every single penny. You need quite a few treatments and touch ups but it's so worth it!

    I had it on my chin and upper lip. Love the results. Feels like getting snapped with a rubber band over and over and not sure I could have done it over a large area, just as I'm reaching my limit for pain she was done. Had mine done 4 years ago I think. and the results are still great. It doesn't get rid of the white hairs only the dark ones. Would like to go for a touch up but the place I went to went out of business and haven't look anywhere else. Definitely worth the expense!

    I am still getting them. So, right now my 7th is scheduled. We do them about 7-8 weeks apart now. You gradually go longer between visits so the hair has more time to regrow so there are more follicles to damage.
  • Hey there! I went to my 2nd session for my chin and upper lip about a week ago and I feel really good about it. It wasn't that painful, it hurts the most in places with more hair. I'm not very pain-tolerant so it hurt for me but it wasn't anything I couldn't handle :) You can message me with any questions if you want :)

    I had my full legs done. So worth it. Got package of 6 treatments for $350 and, bought 3 more for $200. At this point I have to shave like once every 6 weeks. But if you have tattoos just know they go around them and that hair grows at a normal rate.

    And yes, the hairier parts hurt like a tattoo, the thighs, for example don't hurt much at all. Ankles - ow.
