    I had a session of laser removal on my facial hair earlier today. It was rather intensely painful, albeit only for a few minutes.

    If I didn't enjoy wearing a beard and mustache, I'd probably laser my facial hair too.

    I absolutely HATE shaving.

    Yeah, shaving sucks. Especially when you do your whole fucking head.

    :yes:
    Worst part of the day, bar none. It's a shame it'll take so many painful sessions, but if it works properly it'll save a fuck of a lot of time every morning.

    And how much is it costing you to return to prepubescence?

    $400 per monthly session, probably six months, so maybe $2.4k total? In return I ideally get a lifetime free from the hassle of shaving. :marathon:

    do they zap your whole face at once? or just one hair at a time?

    If it was one follicle at a time, the pain would be unbearable. They go over your whole face and shoot each area (about the size of a square centimetre) with an individual shot that targets all the active follicles within the beam.

    See, I'd love to do this my own self. No more shaving? SWEET!! But then I'd lose the option of growing a scary scruffy beard if I wanted to, so back to the blade I go . . .

    Shaving doesn't really bother me. However, since I do so after showering, the mirrors being fogged up is a nuisance. :garamet:

    Try both legs and armpits, buddy!

    Nicking an armpit hurts like a motherfucker, too. :shakefist:
