Awesome! It'll take some time, but having to worry less about shaving all the damn time is going to be great. And help with skin irritation.

Laser was the first thing I ever did for my transition and it made a huge impact on my dysphoria

I did some professional laser and electrolysis and I have a laser at home, though it's nowhere near as complex as the ones at the clinics it works pretty well for periodic cleanup. I think I'll probably go back for some electrolysis, though at some point. The laser (home or clinic) just didn't get rid of a lot of the hair. It did thin it out a lot and removed pigment from some, but that hair is still annoying since it still grows long unlike the peach fuzz, which I also have a lot of.

congratulations!

laser is so totally worth it. i started in february, and in that time have gone from "no matter how close i shave i'll have a 5 o' clock shadow by 10am" to "spend a few seconds running over my face with an electric trimmer and it'll be invisible for 2-3 days".

Yayyy!

I really need to look into starting laser at some point, I always hear lots of good things about it.

Suuuuuper proud of you girlie!

Personally hair is where most of my dysphoria comes from. The day I can post in trans_joy WITHOUT covering damn near everything will be the day for me. Crop top and skirt, I am soooo desperate for 😭. I wish I could afford more than just my face...

But fr... I'm proud of you, not a lot of others can do that! No matter how much I've told some how much of a difference it can make regardless. You're cool <3

Upper lip is the worst. And the most stubborn.

It's a rough few months while you can't really shave between sessions. But it's so worth it in the end. Not having to shave every morning.

So glad for you

Yeah, I spend less time shaving because of it.

Like now I'm starting to have hair free zones and some with. So it's even worse if I let them grow 🥲, but then again shaving is way faster. (Like 4th session in 4 days)
