I got it done about 5 years ago! Totally worth it. I had six sessions and zero maintenance after that. Recently it has started to grow back a little, but nothing a maintenance appt wouldnt fix! Honestly it’s good to not have to think about it and totally worth it

I have dark coarse Italian hair with light skin. I just had treatment 7 today. The hair under my arms is completely gone. No grow since about session 4. Brazilian, have so little growth now, except the greys. Expect to not see much dark growth going forward. I'm in my 50s and so wish I did it when I was younger because the greys can't be treated. I'll have to continue to shave them. Anyhow, It's def worth it so DO IT!

Thank you!

What color hair and skin do you have? I had ten sessions and there was barely any change. I am relatively pale and have light brown hair. It works best with high contrast skin and hair (and doesn’t really work at all on lighter hair, especially reds and blondes)

Good to know! I’m also pale and have medium brown hair

I got 8 session. No much effect. Maybe 10% reduction in hair growth. I just back a package for another 7 sessions. Hope I get better results now.
I have dark olive skin and dark black hair.

Thank you!

Hi ladies! An old chestnut but would still love to hear your advice: i am fairly certain a key senior stakeholder is being difficult because he perceives me as a senior non white woman trying to boss him around. I have heard that he doesn’t like to surround himself with people cleverer than him in fear of them taking over his job, which to me further confirms this is a possibility. What can/should I do? TIA!

My career counselor has seemed kind of cold towards me lately and I’m not sure why. Previously, she’s been someone I could count on to sponsor me, but she seems eager to get off our check in calls and hasn’t advocated for me in the ways I would’ve expected. For example, I went outside of our account for a stretch role and had walked through the logic of that decision (the role is on a high visibility project that could lead to more work, it’s a role meant for someone two career levels above mine

Still I am having doubts because I think he isn’t very “intellectual”. To be clear, he’s intelligent! He is a great STEM role that requires an advanced degree. We share a love of reading as well. However he is not really interested in world affairs, does not follow the news closely, does not have a strong grasp
