Comment on Body shaving for ladies?
dream_weasel@sh.itjust.works 1 month agoWell that’s the whole problem, it has to be shaved or else the hair treatment doesn’t work. Can’t be plucked or pulled. The laser works on the pigment of the hairs left in the follicles. Basically we gotta do 2 to 4 punishing but thorough shaves and then she’s (theoretically) free of the razor after that.

After I responded, I did some more reading. It looks like Cyperus rotundus is the way to go. It’s quite similar, though: waxing, threading, or tweezing, apply the oil thoroughly, and then daily until the next wax; repeat a couple of times, and Bob’s your Uncle. Same efficacy, except Alexandrite lasers work only on dark follicles, whereas Cyperus works on all follicles.
