I wanna get electrolysis done on my upper lip (specifically the outer area of my upper lip as the hair growing there is thicker, darker and there is ingrowns). I was told that I cannot thread or wax my upper lip between sessions. Anyone knows if this is actually an issue or if that’s just to ensure that there is enough hair to be removed for the following session?

Electrolysis or laser specifically targets the melanin in hair and damages the hair follicle so that hair won’t grow back. If you wax/thread/tweeze you are completely removing the hair so there is no melanin to target. You can shave so that the root of the hair is still there but removing the hair completely lowers the efficacy

Confirmed - you do not wax between sessions. I did electrolysis on my legs and bikini line in the winter for this reason.

If you're looking for inspirational films about addiction I highly recommend The Resurrection of Jake the Snake Roberts. It's a documentary about the wrestler who had about as bad an addiction problem as you can imagine. It goes through his problems, despair, but also shows his road to recovery through platonic love, support, and he finds redemption. It's great for anyone like me that tried and failed to get sober for years. I have over a year now for the first time.

Had a really bad day 😞 I don’t know why I keep doing this to myself. Things will be going well and then out of nowhere I get blackout drunk. I am tired of feeling sick and anxious from drinking. I don’t really even want to drink sometimes but do it anyway. Blacked out last night, and still feel sick now. I’ve never shared with anyone that I have this problem, until I found this message board. I have so much anxiety that I won’t be able to get this under control. I feel isolated and sad.
