Re: CP: Laser hair removal
Does anyone get their armpits waxed?
I did once, pre wedding/HM. I sucked but the area is so small that it was over real quick.
good point. i have a sweating problem though so i can only use certain deodorants and in the past i have found dove makes me extra sweaty. i have sensitive skin because i have the problem in a lot of places i shave.
Ditto!!
ETA: I use Dove Clinical Strength in the summer months.

ooooooo...i'll check it out. thanks ladies.
I too get pretty sweaty, especially in the summer. The plant I work at is very humid and just gross. I had the best results using Dove Clinical Strength and Secret Clinical. However, Secret stained my clothes so I stopped using it. Secret does come in a travel size though, where Dove does not so I will use Secret on occasion. Also the clinical strength stuff works best when applied the night before.

Bikini for SURE! And by bikini, I mean from just about my belly button to a good five inches down my thighs. Sorry for the extra personal info, but I'm Italian and "bikini line" doesn't quite cover it. But I don't need to be a bald 8 year old, I just need it under control when I wear a bikini (haha, good joke) or tankini.
This, but I went with armpits.
Yes, I used to get mine waxed. The first time it hurt SOOO bad, but I continued to go back, and it did get better over time. I wish I never gave it up, but I ended up moving (from Chi back to MI) and never found anyone to do it here. However, I would totally recommend it! I loved the smooth feeling, and it lasted for a very long time.
I've been using the Secret Clinical Strength for a couple years now but have never had issues with staining. That_shit is expensive though (the only downside, really).

Exactly this! I am a hairy Italian woman and I hated having a 5 o'clock shadow under my arms. There are still a few hairs that grow under my arms but they are very sparse and it worked even better on my bikini line. Best investment so far. I would love to get my legs done eventually as well.
I had tried getting my underarms waxed before and I didn't like the results. I think it may have been b/c I didn't let the hair grow long enough though. I hated having to let it grow.
I have a series of questions for you. How much did it cost? How many sessions? Where did you get it done.
