Not sure if my electrologist is doing a good job..

“the average guy would only have to do 2 HOURS to determine the success of his treatments!”

Michael, how can i know? The average guy comes to this type of treatment with zero previous knowledge or experience about electrolysis and after a few clearances hair keeps growing and doubts always rise, is it working? etc

Thank you

Jossie, your drawing is not entirely accurate for very late-stage telogen hairs. I’ve looked at these “in the flesh” and they are shockingly HIGH in the skin … maybe “anchored” at the top 10 - 15% of the skin’s depth (right in the epidermis). And the follicle? It’s so withered you can’t see it!

Few people present the super late-stage telogens, but when they do I don’t think current is going to give you a “perfect release.” How many … maybe one in a few hundred?

My most leg’s telogen hairs are super short. They are just 1-2 mm under the skin!

My point was somewhat different: at which error rate is it appropriate to change the electrologist?

At which the true regrowth is greater than 15%, or put another way, the point at which the client feels resistance in 15% of treated hairs.

Hi rfa,

I noticed you’re located in the Bay Area – so am I. I’ve read up on quite a few electrologists in the Bay and had consultations with a number of them. If you’re interested, it would be great to exchange email addresses so we can chat about specific professionals in the area and help each other find someone good!
