Dear hairtellers!
I have now spent some months seriously considering whether to treat my peach fuzz problem with electrolysis or just let it be and learn to live with it. I have learned a lot in this time, especially accepting it has been easier knowing that it is actually possible to change it permanently. That knowledge has given me a feeling of freedom of choice, which has been - well, very freeing
So, although I may not be as sultry and silky as Iād like, Iām okay with that now, recently. The funny thing is, this is also why I feel fine having it removed. Before I somehow felt guilty about spending money for my self and appearances.
My situation is such that I will have to travel to another country for appointments. Therefore I want to clarify an approximate time frame before planning everything. As I have read and understood, body hairs like peach fuzz/very fine, short hairs should be comparably easy to treat in the sense that much/most of it is already present on the surface and therefore will be gone the first time around. (pardon my lack of proper vocabulary, I hope it makes sense.) I imagine an example such as one week daily for several hours (yes, I have found a wonderful practitioner able and willing to do marathon sessions), then after maybe 3 months, another 3-4 days to clear it all and again 3 months after, one or two days to clear the rest. Is this realistic? I am quite petite, not too tall neither wide, although I do realize my hairs are very dense!
I will describe the areas as well as post pictures for you to have a look and maybe estimate your idea of a time frame.
Although I have considered having just the longer and thicker hairs removed, I have decided that I may as well have it all treated if I am going to permanent solutions anyway, other wise I could just as well continue my tweezing and bleaching as till now, as Iād have to if the āpeach fuzzā wonāt be treated as well. So, all or nothing here, and both are okay with me. Iād appreciate not being told that ājust doing one or two areas that bother me mostā is the thing to do, because if I am to take care of it, it all bothers me.
I have black peach fuzz everywhere, but what I want removed is across my forehead, a widowās peak, very very slightly on my neck, quite a lot on the back of my neck, all of my back, shoulders, ribs/sides, chest, breasts, stomach, lower belly, hips, basically my whole torso and my upper arms, hands and fingers. Here are some pics in random order:
(I guess it doesnāt make sense to apologize for the ungroomed condition! I should note that I had bleached my whole body a month before taking these pictures, so it looks somewhat less severe than when I leave it be for a couple of months. The very first two closeup photos are from today though, so those are most genuine. )

I wish I could take sharper pictures, but despite several different tries with lighting, settings and time of day, these are the most detailed Iāve come up with.
Another question is whether itād be wise to have my upper lip treated? I wonder if there might be a tiny risk that it would provoke more hairs to become active in growth?
Thank you all
