Home laser kits

Post by Ginny Jones »

Hey girls!

Have any of you used a home laser kit for hair removal? I have really sensitive skin and find shaving / hair removal creams leave my skin pretty sore. I've seen some kits on the net and they sound pretty tempting; especially given the claim that they are permanant ! Any feedback you can give me would be much appreciated!

Save your money!

These kits do not have enough power to be effective. That is to ensure that the manufacturer doesn't get sued should the users burn themselves.

I agree with Donna. Remember the self electrolysis gizmos too? A pro can kill a hair in seconds and the self help home kit could kill the same lone hair in minutes.

Thanks for your advice ladies! I've been scouring the net for independant reviews and they all seem to share your opinion! Oh well - it sounded like a nice idea. I'm going to have to investigate getting it done professionally by someone with a big enough laser. I wonder if Luke Skywalker would be up for the job? :-k
