It is the question almost everyone asks. Most clients describe a quick warm or stinging sensation as each hair is treated — very tolerable, and over in a moment.
Which areas are more sensitive?
The upper lip, bikini line and areas over bone tend to be more sensitive; cheeks, chin and neck are usually easier.
7 ways to make sessions comfortable
- Ask about topical numbing cream
- Avoid caffeine before your session
- Stay hydrated and eat beforehand
- Book away from your period if you are more sensitive then
- Breathe slowly and take short breaks
- Tell your electrologist — settings can be adjusted
- Keep sessions regular: fewer hairs means shorter sessions
