I don’t post much these days, but I thought I’d fill everyone in on my hair removal.
Knowing I was transgendered from an early age, I started facial electrolysis at around 16. My mother had taken me as a a teenager to get some eyebrow hair done (I had the worst eyebrows ever) and, before I had ever even heard of other TS people, I decided on my own that I could us electrolysis to remove my hated facial hair. I didn’t have the money to go at it full time, and it took me almost 10 years to finish.
I had an orchiectomy at 25, and really started a lot of electrolysis at the same time. Now, my my face is done, and I’ve also had the back of my neck and my fingers done, and I am now finishing up brows before zapping a few nipple and toe hairs.
I used to be pretty hairy before my orchiectomy, but after surgery a lot of that reduced. I still have too much body hair to be a woman, but what’s left is fine, sparse, and blonde. I am hoping it might reduce even more since I’ve added progesterone to my HRT.
Anyway, I love not having to shave my face. I still have to have a few little lip hairs zapped every now and then,but I haven’t had to shave, really, in years. I look literally 10 years younger (and I am 28!) and couldn’t be happier. Electrolysis, along with my orchiectomy, have done wonders for me.
