No and I never would. I let the hair on my body grow naturally.
The only hair that gets cut frequently is the hair the grows on my head and face.

Hair is natural and has its purposes, why would you permanently stop hair from growing on your body?

I have, it works and is great but mine was only one little spot. Like a nickel
I agree... for 90% men. For example, I don't understand how some have strands of hair on their arm, neck, etc and do laser removal.
However, would you rather have a man hairless arms or

I used to operate a laser removal center. Laser hair removal is tricky in blacks. Ensure they use an ND YAg laser to avoid burning
Why did you stop?

I used to work in a derm office. From what I remember laser hair removal is better when there is contrast, dark hair and light skin

Groupon destroyed the market. Also, so many substandard laser clinics popped up that offered dirt cheap prices. Cost of machine made business unsustainable, especially with Groupon crashing the market.
Well I aint even black though, I'm beige with dark black hairs lol.
I guess you're the right person to talk to. I remember telling people to use laser and they were like "You know how expensive that is? It's like 500 a session for upper chest alone and you have to go at least 6 times". This was years ago. So I guess there's plenty of businesses of it everywhere so the supply is more than the demand.
I just coincidentally ran up on it and these groupon links right before I made the thread and seen like 130 results in my city alone.
Couple questions.
1. All these offers are like 6 sessions for 200 bucks (ie. full arms, chest and abdomen, etc). After those 6 sessions, will I never grow hair again? Will I grow the same amount I have currently a year later? Will it just reach 50% of what I have now?
2. I keep hearing about laser radiation will lead to health problems in the future (ie. cancer), true?
3. Keeping it 100, I'm contemplating my butt too, yall had men come in for that? How much percent of the customers were men anyways?
4. Since there are so many groupon offers, how can I tell the difference between a good clinic and the substandard ones like you mentioned?
Anything else you believe is helpful let me know
Thanks

This is true. It can have an effect on dark/black peoples skin. Look for a specialist.
SHE SHAVED YO BALLS?! AND WHY WAS SHE GRABBING YO JUNK?!
Yeah she shaved the balls
I didn't want to wax that
Looked like it would hurt too much
She had to grab my shyt because after every time she would wax an area she had to hold it down with pressure to relieve the pain
ND Yag was the laser that was used on me. Worked pretty well. I had 5 done on my pubic area and arm pits. Very few hairs remain.
