Its simple. Have an expert stick a probe into each follicle and zap it painfully with electricity. All it takes is a shit load of money, time, and pain!

Or you can spend $1200 on a home unit and spend a shit load of time and pain both learning a new skill and destroying your facial hair in the comfort of your own home! You won't get discouraged by the magnitude of the project at all...

My wife has been having this done and it has been successful so far. About 2 months in. Once a week. Noticeable difference especially with darker hairs around mouth.

It certainly works but it suuuucks. I wish my hair/skin contrast was such that laser would work.

[-] xamirozar@lemm.ee 1 points 1 day ago

Guessing that laser works better when the contrast is not so different?

[-] apotheotic@beehaw.org 3 points 1 day ago

You need light skin (optional but helpful) and dark hair (necessary) for laser to work properly since the laser heats up the pigment

Ahh learned something new. Thank you

I will say if they're skilled you shouldn't feel the insertions, they will tune the settings to your pain threshold, I often doze off while getting mine 😅

I am jealous of your pain tolerance. It is absolute agony on certain parts of my body, but at least just stings for others.

[-] apotheotic@beehaw.org 5 points 2 days ago

The insertions don't hurt, yeah :) I certainly can't doze off, its quite painful even with tattoo numbing cream. It has to be some minimum threshold to actually be effective so I just have to bear it.
