Yes, you DO have a point Jossie. (I recommend other electrologists ALL THE TIME!)
FAR TOO MANY electrologists “trash” other electrologists: their “method” especially. I’m fed up with it and I’ve always been fed up with it! It has not changed much in 40-years!
To promote yourself, you DO NOT have to tear others down! However, underlying our “profession” … except for a scant few … this is exactly the predisposition.
Electrologists say dreadful things about others in “their profession,” and the schools themselves promote a LOT of these disparaging ideas … especially those schools that promote and SELL one brand of electrolysis machine! (Most of them do! And, it’s all about MONEY!)
You see this rancorous behavior the time: HORRIBLE photos of dreadful skin problems, caused by “this-or-that-modality!” We all know what it’s like being on the receiving end of this …
I just read a piece by a notorious “nut-job” electrologist that “trashes” ALL methods … except her own (of course).
For myself, other electrologists (that have never seen my work) have, for 40 years, said that my method is SLOW and I cause “too much skin damage.” My clients would vociferously disagree.
Of particular concern is when one of our “lovelies” demeans someone’s method … or whatever … and has absolute ZERO experience with the method they are “trashing!” Pathetic!
Is it any wonder that the public is confused?
If the AEA wants a “new mission” … and they talk about “new directions” all the time … well this could be a nice direction for them.
(Am I “ranting” here?)
