ORIGINAL: DerangedUnit My mother had it done and got 3 sessions for 100 but it didn't work... apparently even her hair is too light and thin which I find odd since hers is dark brown.... I'm one of those lucky weird people that only gets little fluffy blonde hairs so is don't even have to shave my legs, though my mom didn't get hair until she had me.... I gave my mom a moustache. Three sessions - three short sessions - for $100 is about the cost. (Around here, anyway.) So unlimited for $99 is...impossible. Electrolysis won't work in three sessions. Did she wind up going for longer or did she just take the three sessions? It can take months to years for one area, dependent on the location on the body. It's quite a commitment. :) And because it does take longer than people expect it to (I know when I first started, I thought it would be immediate, as well), people get frustrated and give up. As I have a few times, myself. quote:
ORIGINAL: stef What kind of electrolysis is it and will they let you speak to previous clients? That price screams "too good to be true" to me. I've been thinking about this thread (since I just went for my own appointment yesterday) and I feel obligated to stress that yes, as Stef says, this really does seem too good to be true. Please be safe. $99 unlimited for a year - why are they offering this deal? Do a cost comparison. What are other places charging? There must be some sort of board certification of these professionals. Does this person have proper credentials? Also, something to think about - I've found that several places will offer a free 15 minute trial and definitely a free consultation. Maybe go to a few other places, ask for a free consultation (either with or without the actual service) and pick their brains about the process and the cost and the time it will take. Then make a decision as to whether this $99 offer makes sense to you. Maybe it will. Maybe it's fine. But it doesn't sound fine.
