Hello Evreyone!
PELASE PELEASE ADVIDE ME!! Any comments will help
I am a 21 year old female. I had it all going for me in terms of professional school, my undergraduate graduation coming up in June, the best family and true friends a girl could ask for, and finally a great hair cut!
My one problem, being a girl of Indian decent with fair skin and BLACK HAIR, I had really long side burns and facial hair. It was fine hair so bleaching worked until was about 16. Then I moved to threading. I was so happy…no more teasing and taunting with nick names like “bic” (you know the razor company). I would thread once very 1-3 weeks and bleach in between. No problem until I was almost 21. A few hairs on my chin started to get course and I felt like I was getting ingrown hairs that were leaving big brown/black scars on my face. I DECIDED TO GET [size:17pt] LASER[/size] _ MY PERMEMNAT SOLUTION. YEAH RIGHT . THE [size: 17pt] BIGGEST MISTAEKE EVER[/size]!! I had one treatment September 19th - a few days before my 21st birthday. The hair initially grew back thin after shedding but the I noticed the hair getting REALLY THICK and CORSE!! I NEVER WENT BACK FOR ANOTHER THREATEMNT. NOW after going back to threading and bleaching i am screwed. The hair will not respond to the bleach and I look like a mutant.
I am seriously considering electrolysis now. but after my laser experience i have reservations. Here are some questions. Can anyone [size:17pt]please please help me.[/size] Any suggestions comments and personal experiences are helpful.
- I read posts and heard some say laser is not good. But I also heard that laser can be helpful if your in the right hands. I went to UCLA and thought i was in the best hands. Well it did not work out. It actually made it worse. Was a manageable problem pre-laser, is now unmanageable after laser.
IWANT TO PREVENT THIS PROBLEM WITH ELECTROLYSIS. BUT IT FEELS LIEK IT SGONA BE THE SAME THING HAPPENING. Some people say electrolysis does not work. Others say it will work if in the RIGHT HNADS. How do I know im in the right hands. I thought I was in teh right hands when I went tot UCLA for laser. I dont wanna make the same mistake. [size:20pt]Can someone please advise me on my current electrolysis plan below. [/size]
-
I went to a board certified electrologist.

I think I want to do three treatments a week for as long as my schedule will permit. I want to treat right side of my face (cheek and sidebrun) once a week, the left side of my face once a week, and my neck once a week. Does that sound like a good schedule?
-
Then I plan to bleach in between sessions.
-
I had a test patch done with a little discomfort from the needle. No serious pain.
-
She wears gloves, uses wrapped & sterilized needles tweezers each tine, magnifying glasses, and a NEW NEEDLE each time.
-
I am very comfortable with her. She has another post laser girl she is working on in addition to me.
-
The is relatively close to home and very close to the new school I will be starting in August so its gonna be REALLY EASY for me to COMMIT to the one year it may take.
-
I am ready to go in 3 times a week for now, and then as least 1 time a week for the next year. But Im gonna go in at least 3 times a week untill my graduation in june.
