Hi
I would like to know where i could purchase a little electrolysis kit, i heard that you can buy this product somewhere. Does anyone know where? Because i have tried shaving and its so bad, im getting more hair (it extends a lot), its thicker, my skin is irritated, + you have to do it at each 2 days. Waxing is better but after 1 week my skin is getting red, the hair grows under the skin and later it results plenty of infections. The hair remover cream is worse, i let it on for about 14 minutes and half of each hair is still there, i mean just the top is removed! Electrolysis its what i have left ! Please help...( i dont know how you girls can do it by shaving...doesnt the hair extend ?

I think you are talking about the electrolysis pen. I know of one "Verseo ePEN Electrolysis Pen" that is supposed to be the best out there, but I've heard it's not very efficient. I would give you the url at folica.com to look it up but I think the moderator will remove it, so go to google and do a search. I am also looking into electrolysis for the bikini area because I'm tired of waxing and getting bad results, but I don't know if these pens really work. It's about $60 so you could give it a try.

The only problem I have with shaving is that I shave it all off, and the razor has to be like brand new and I can't do it more than once a week or I get horrid red bumps which bleed while I'm shaving and it's just horrid. If it bothers you that much, get it done professionally. Be careful if you have sensitive skin because there have been some horror stories of professional hair removal. I saw on TV this girl had these super sensitive legs and shaving was a problem, so she had this procedure done, I'm not sure which but they put this light pen on her legs and it ended up leaving burn marks and she was in so much pain. All I have to say is DUH. If you have problem legs which are really sensitive, the of course somthing like that would happen! So be careful!

Thanks but i hope it will work. About the legs, i didnt try to take off my hair because they are blond kinda,but i will do it later anyway. I hope the electrolysis pen is worth it.
