    Now I thought you had to go through a Doctor for this. A salon does it though? That is better! I am going t look around.
    Now pain? Is it like getting a shot? or a bee sting? Or not?

    ...ahem....I have the extended version. I found the more I removed the more I wanted removed......

    The pain is like getting popped with a rubber band. Taking a pain reliever prior will take the big sting out of it. Also, if you are very sensitive, you can ask about the numbing creme.

    I think it just depends on the area on whether a doctor needs to do it or a salon. check around. I've noticed a few places running deals lately. The place that I go to is a skin care place that is associated with a doctor. They have a nurse practitioner pretty much running it. They have an electrolysist on staff and she can treat with the laser.

    I'm like that with waxing. The one time I didn't extend, I felt like there was nothing done!

    How long does the treatment take? I know session-wise it takes at least five but for each appointment, how long did it take?

    Good point! Although it's not the furry that I mind, it's the thorny brambles!

    Go with the Laser

    I've lasered and done electrolysis. For me the laser is the way to go. A LOT less painful! Price was not to bad. I got a half price deal last Christmas for my underarms, $200. for eight sessions. I also got a bikini line deal half price but can't remember how much that was. It might have been the same price.

    But as someone else said, I love my smooth underarms. If it's not sleevless, I don't wear it during the summer, so not having to worry about hairy pits is the best! bikerHen

    Hmmmm, $200 is a good price. Let me know if they run that special again? Might be worth trips to Spokane.

    See! Sometimes it pays to live on the poor side of the state. They seem to run different "specials", every month. I'm getting my upper lip done now. So I'll keep a look out for you. I know they run a lot of half price deals during Christmas.

    It's a ways to come for a few minutes in the chair, but maybe you could fit a bike ride in while your here. bikerHen
