A tiny probe is inserted into each hair follicle. The Electrologist then releases a small amount of heat thru different settings of their machine. The heat releases the hair and root from the follicle.
The probe range in diameter from .005” to .002”. The Electrologist matches the probe size to the same diameter of the hair.
Please leave a short stubble. The hair should be long enough for the Electrologist to grip with a tweezer.
Since there must be hair for the Electrologist to work with, you will come in with the frequency that your body produces hair. Typically clients will come in at the same frequency that they wax, shave or tweeze. Most people begin with weekly appointments. Remember if there is no hair, then the Electrologist cannot work on you.
It is normal for your skin to look pink and slightly bumpy. Dependent on your skin a small amount of cortisone, aloe vera or witch hazel will be applied to cool the area.
Please wait 24 to 48 hours before applying makeup on the treated area.
Your Electrologist should only be using prepackaged sterilized needles that they open in front of you. The tweezer they use, to remove the hair, should also be sterilized. Ask your Electrologist to show you their equipment they use to sterilize. They should be using an ultrasonic cleaner and a dry heat or auto-clave sterilizer. Basically anything that touches your skin should be sterilized and/or disposable.
Watch to see if your Electrologist washes her/his hands before placing on clean disposable gloves.
Depends on what you want done. For large areas, such as arms, legs, underarms, bikinis I recommend laser. When completed with your sessions, I recommend following up with Electrolysis to remove the hairs that laser did not get rid off. The FDA approves of laser as Hair REDUCTION. While they clearly state that Electrolysis is PERMANENT HAIR REMOVAL. For small areas, I would strongly recommend Electrolysis. In the case of eyebrows, Electrolysis is the only way to go as laser requires that the patient wear safety glasses for protection.
Yes, because with Electrolysis we go into each individual hair follicle. The color of the hair is not a problem.
The length of time needed is dependent on how much hair you want remove, the type of hair you have, the frequency of your visits. At a minimum you should be prepared to commit for one to two years. While it sounds long, remember that you have been shaving, tweezing, and waxing for probably much longer than that. You may start off with weekly or biweekly appointment. After a few months the frequency of your appointments should become less frequent.
Cash, check, Zelle, Visa, Mastercard, Discover, or American Express. Payment is made at the end of each appointment.
A 15 minute session is $45.
Outside of emergencies and being sick, we ask that our clients kindly give us a day's notice so that we can offer your slotted time to another client who is on the wait list. Less than a day's notice may result in being charged your reserved appointment time.
