I have PMOS and always have had a problem with excessive body hair and I am so sick of it negative

All I can think of is laser hair removal clinics but those are expensive. Has anyone found a solution that won’t make me broke/give me cancer?

    Damn. So the Tria is not really usable for the body due to the small surface it gets at once? And yeah I would also have too hard of a time using that thing on my face if it hurts like the studio. And i do flinch above the lip. Impossible not to.

    At least the face can be covered in reasonable time I guess. Can’t imagine I find someone willing to do my leg. Gotta go for tinder or something with “I do your legs, you do mine. I have the device” 😂

    I will have to think it over. Right now I have no money anyways but I do want to “attack” my body hair in winter because shaving my hair every second day is just too much of a hassle. And while I say ‘power to you’ to anyone showing off their body hair I simply won’t wear the clothing I want to.

        Oh yeah i understand big time. A trans friend of mine was also like “not sure if I should do my arms next” and she has these few very light hairs that are just how i wish I had them. I got real fur, dark too. Good for laser though I guess.

        Hmm maybe I will pay my mom to do it. Should be possible once a month and will still be much cheaper than the studio. 2000€ just because my beard makes me dysphoric since I was a teenager. Smh.

      It’s very slow; impractical for large areas. It’s not really good for face and neck either, between the slowness, the pain from lack of cooling, and the difficulty of aiming a laser at your own face.
