Hi, I have been searching through these posts for this answer, without much luck but i will try. I would like to tackle the hair on my chin (well, i will start there). It’s female pattern, dark, grows fast and there is a fair amount. Hormone levels tested and normal. So really, because I know I can’t wax or pluck (and really don’t want to shave or bleach) I would like somewhere close to where i live or work (central, south east london) to have regular sessions (at the moment i pluck every day, not ideal but seems my only choice). I also want to go somewhere recommended (I tried a random salon years back and she burnt me --not badly but it put me off). It seems there are not many good electrolysists in london?! Is this really true? I did consider parkhill, in north london as it was recommended here but it is just a bit far, and i will need to go often. Once a week is just not an option at the moment. Any recommendations very gratefully received. The hair seems to be increasing as I get older (now late forties) and i would really like to get this more under control. I won’t go int all the emotional/confidence issues here! Many thanks
If there is a fairly large amount of hairs to kill You might consider block sessions and long healing phases instead. This will autoamtically increase the economically useful search radius a lot. And You have the advantage that after the initial healing You can enjoy a (mostly) hair free face for some time. With the regularly weekly schedule You will have to deal with wound areas somewhere in the face during the whole treatment. That was my intention why i sought for block treatments when i started with electrolysis in my own face.
Independent on that Your skin will profit a lot if You stop plucking and shave Your hairs instead. With blades designed for men - cheaper and more powerful.
