So Spring has (apparently) arrived and the weather will soon start to turn warm, so bye bye thick black chunky tights, denim skirt and chunky knit sweaters that I have lived in for the last 5 months or so will find themselves at the back of the wardrobe once again, That said, out will come the pretty skirts and dresses that I prefer to wear and with that is the constant checking that my legs are no comparison to that of a gorilla.
One of my closest friends had laser hair removal a few years ago and she said it the best money she has ever spent, having carefully worked out how much it costs for razors, shaving gel and anything else she used and compared it to the cost of laser treatment. So it is something I have looked into and there are so many options to choose from and so many places to choose to go to for the treatment and then the decision as to whether or not it is really for you. One thing I was concerned about was whether it would be as painful as waxing, which lets face it, is not pleasant and in actual fact, my friend Sarah compared it to being like a flick of an elastic band at its most painful.

When debating whether or not Laser Hair Removal is for you, the infographic shown below is actually really helpful and it also gives some food for thought as to whether or not it would actually work for you.
I'd be far too scared (not to mention lazy) to try this technique, but this infographic was really helpful in case I ever change my mind.
ReplyDeleteI am having laser hair removal! I am just about to start the process... super excited to become hair free!!
ReplyDeleteHa! I've never tried this, I'm not very good at keeping on top of my beauty regime to be fair so maybe I should as I'll be spending at least three months in Australia later this year and this could be just what I need!
ReplyDeleteIf it was cheaper I'd definitely get it done! :) I know in the long run it's a lot cheaper but I guess you dont realise the costs when its spread out.
ReplyDeleteYou're definitely right to research this for yourself and come to your own conclusion!
ReplyDeleteI have considered it but never done it myself xx
ReplyDeleteI've never done it but definitely considered it - it would save so much time and effort! You are doing the right thing though by taking your time to research it as you don't want to dive straight into something without knowing the side effects!

I don't have hair issues but some people in my family will need your post. Thx! Papatia
ReplyDeleteI would consider it! One less thing to worry about.
ReplyDeleteI have had quite a few friends do this and love it. I am just too lazy!
ReplyDeleteI know a few people who have had it done and they are so pleased with the results. I have thought about it before but never extended it further.

That's an amazing stat - women spend £7,000 in a lifetime on shaving!
ReplyDeleteI have not tried this but I have a friend that has and swears by it! There are a few men that need this too! lol
ReplyDeleteI am considering laser hair removal for years, but I always think I'm not too bothered by shaving, so it's there a point of doing it. :)
ReplyDeleteI've had laser on my underarms and I am planning on getting more because it's so much easier than remembering to shave x
ReplyDeleteI would totally laser my whole body if I had the money for it!
ReplyDeleteCurrently having my chin hair treated and I am happy so far.
ReplyDeleteI personally would like getting it done but it is rather expensive I have to say.
ReplyDeleteI am actually really interested in laser hair removal if I can find a good deal so this was an interesting read x
ReplyDeleteI'm definitely tempted to invest in laser removal in the future, I honestly despise shaving!!

I think the cost puts me off, and that over large areas it'd take a while and a few efforts and even then might not get it all off. I mostly wear trousers all year round, so it's only swimmming that's a faff to defuzz for.
ReplyDeleteI certainly see the benefits of doing this but I am so limited for time with the kids at home that right now it's not for me but would certainly consider it in the future
