I'm looking at getting my bikini area completely rid of hair. My boyfriend's offered to pay for me to have the hair lasered off - anyone know of the pros and cons of this procedure? Prices, side-effects, effectiveness etc?

Well I know someone that got laser surgery to remove hair and it takes more than one treatment and she said it hurt really bad. Also, whereever you get the laser surgery at is really sensitive to sun so I know it should stay kind of hidden from the sun but if you went to a tanning bed or something that would be bad.

Being in the beauty profession and carrying out electrolysis I have found too many cases of hair growing back after 3 or 4 sessions of laser treatment. I have personally never had laser, but I am told by my clients the pain is horrendous, although everyone has a different pain threshold. At the end of the day it's your choice. Good luck with whatever you choose.

I was thinking about doing this but there's something about the whole thing being so permanent I decided against it. Sorry, I don't know what the cost is. I thought that it would beat having to deal with hair stubs and the itch and redness they cause. However, I don't know that I'd let anyone pay for this procedure. I don't know, maybe it's just me, but I wouldn't let a boyfriend pay for it. I mean what if you marry someone else, he'll be the one that can say, I paid for that little job! Maybe I'm being silly about this but that's how I'd feel. Now if your husband was to pay for it then that's different.

I like the way that you call it a "bikini zone"
If you mean getting rid of pubic hair, use your boyfreinds' shaver, with the hacking attachmet turned on.
Less vicious than some expensive laser treatment, and anyway, we all have hair in that area, so why worry about it ?
Just a thought,
Bob.

Have a hollywood wax instead. After the first couple of sessions the pain is not too bad. You probably need t have it re-done every 4-6 weeks but it is not too bad. Make sure you have a couple of pain killers 2 hrs before the first session as it just takes the edgae off the discomfort

Laser hair removal is “permanent” hair removal method but is expensive and you have to find a trained professional, otherwise your skin could be damaged.

you are soooo lucky to have your boyfriend's offered to pay for you, the price is different - some is AUD$300, some AUD$4oo, some aud$500, no effective
