I had my consultation today at Romeo and Juliet. I went for legs and full bikini. I know they’re considered one of the best in NYC, but I’m not sure how I felt about my consultation.
I have fair skin and coarse/dark hair with TONS of ingrowns. They told me that my leg treatments should be 6 weeks apart to start, and when I mentioned that I had read they should be 8-12 weeks, the technician said that they do them every 6 weeks. The second technician agreed. After a few treatments, they go up to 7-10 weeks apart. Should I be suspicous? They quoted me 4000 for 6 sessions of leg and full bikini with 6 free cleanups at 2-3 weeks in case of any missed spots. Does this seem reasonable? I know that 3 weeks isn’t necessary enough time, but she said this was usually for stubborn hairs.
She said that “any of the lasers would work for me” due to my optimal skin/hair combo, but that she would use the apogee elite. I’ll admit I can’t exactly remember the settings but I believe there was a 16 in there, and she said it would go higher at my next session. She said that after the first session I wouldn’t experience a hair loss exacty but my hair would grow back much thinner. She also said I could expect 90-95% reduction after 6 sessions and if not, they would do all further sessions at half price.
Any thoughts? I’ve heard such good things about Romeo and Juliet, but what she told me seemed to contradict some of the things I’ve read on this forum.
