Laser

Looking for recommendation for a good hair removing laser or similar for bikini line. I normally use hair removing cream and shave but always get a rash. Going on holiday soon and looking to invest in something that won’t leave an angry looking rash. Thanks.

Hi!

I had my armpits lasered at a salon and bought a device to use at home for other areas…. I’d recommend just paying for a salon to do it.

Arm pit hair needed 7 sessions, a couple of weeks apart and with a gradual increase in the lasers strength. But the hair has not grown back (it is absolutely amazing!)

The device I bought was not cheap, I’ve used it frequently and the hair on my bikini line has decreased but it’s no where near as powerful as the salon laser. It’s like some hairs just need a really good zap! So I’m less hairy but not hair free and need to use other methods to get the job done! It’s just not as good as the really really expensive laser the salons use… it is however, less painful (lower levels at the salon didn’t hurt at all… higher ones absolutely did. Like someone aggressively twanging an elastic band on me! But I don’t have any arm pit hair… and as a dark hair light skinned person who always had a shadow, it’s glorious!!)

Thank you for this, it absolutely didn’t occur to me to get it done professionally! Will look into it, thanks.
