Today I had myfirst session of laser epilation and it really did go faster than I expected. Everyone was so nice and happy for me. The feeling itself was really a mess. The joy of finally starting this step (I have lots of hair dysphoria). The pain of the shoots themselves. and more that I wont get into.

at the end I noticed my face was all wet though I did not really realize I cried. Later I understood those were tears of joy.

    congratulations!

    laser is so totally worth it. i started in february, and in that time have gone from “no matter how close i shave i’ll have a 5 o’ clock shadow by 10am” to “spend a few seconds running over my face with an electric trimmer and it’ll be invisible for 2-3 days”.

      You are so lucky omfg. I started in May, and its gone from “5 o clock shadow, and its worse of I don’t shave twice per day” to “5 o clock shadow, but its kiiiinda hideable from a high angle or in the dark… Otherwise same parameters”
