On average, how many hours to remove leg hair?

Lower leg hair only…typical growth for a woman. Can someone give me an estimate? I know everyone is different but…

For laser or electrolysis? I know this is the electrolysis forum, but just wanted to clarify.

would like to know the answer to this question as well.

Undoubtedly, Electrolysis. You end up with 100% of your hair. The process will end before 95% in 9 months. Your skin is like a baby and it will be cheaper. That is guaranteed.

Cheaper than laser? Have you ever had laser ded10? It doesn’t sound like it. My lower legs cost me $250 per treatment and 3 treatments got rid of a good 60-70% of the hair. So I spent 3 hours TOTAL in 8 months treating them for $750 TOTAL. There is absolutely no way to get that result with electrolysis in that period of time, especially with that little time on the table. Let’s be reasonable here.

AMH, timing for this depends on your electrologists’s speed AND on the density of your hair. Have you had electrolysis already on other areas? Then you can easily estimate the time frame. Multiple the number of hairs you think you have by time it takes your electrologist to remove each hair. Then multiple by at least 4 to account for hair cycles and hairs in the wrong phase.

Lagirl You would be surprised at what can be achieved by Electrolysis. I do not take to prove it. Have a little patience and you will see. I never joke when it comes to Electrolysis. What I do is prove it with evidence.

ded10 where are you located at?

Spain.

What do you do when you reach hairs that you can not negotiate yourself ? There are only so many you can reach by yourself. Can you work as well with your left and right hands? Try it with a pencil to see how much you can actually reach by yourself. Will you be able to insertt It is highly probable you will never reach the same degree of proficiency with both hands. When you start working with your less dominant hand is when you will find out what scarring is really like.

You should see the speed with which ded10 does electrolysis and her effectiveness on legs as I have seen her doing it. Then you would probably say a very different thing. I bet she can prove it!

You, friend FranTeruel, betting advantage.
Here are the proves:
Woman’s legs before an hour session.
When I take the first photo had made 11 hours in total, 550 euros, approximately 80% of their hair removed. Start date: 10/30/2008
when the first photo: 4/24/2009
Second photo, one hour after.
Method: Picoflash

This is about the amount of time I needed for a first clearance on several of my leg clients, 11 hours using PicoFlash or MicrFlash before I purchased the Apilus Platinum.

11 the previous hours divided in the two legs.

That looks like the reaction one gets immediately after a session.

Dee Indeed, depending on the individual and the density of hair removed, the reaction lasts from one to four hours.At the top of the leg, the density was highest because it had never been treated area. In the lower leg, the density is minimal (too the reaction) because as seen in the first photo, there are few hairs.

How many hair removed in total?

I can not know exactly (I forgot to program the machine), but surely they were over a thousand.
