What Do You Most Love About Electrolysis?

I love the beautifully clean feeling when you see your lip and chin hair free. I love to be able to go swimming without having to cover up my legs because shaving has caused red bumps- my legs look clean and hair free. I love not having to tweeze my eyebrows every other day.

I love being able to wear a sleeveless blouse or dress and don't have to worry about shaving under my arms with the ugly little black hair pores showing. I feel much more feminine without hair on my breasts and have much more self confidence. I can go on and on.
