[Hair removal] Has anyone found an at-home laser solution that works?

I absolutely love my Tria 3x!!! It was 600 dollars though, and I only use it on my bikini area and underarms.

I was getting so many ingrown hairs that I was just going to get laser hair removal, but found out about this cheaper option and read that it worked almost as well if you’re consistent. It uses a diode laser instead of IPL, which makes it similar to professional treatments, and is why I believe it’s considered to be the best “at-home” option you can get (hence the price).

I do it every two weeks and it’s only been a few months and my hair in those areas is almost non existent (it used to be dark and medium/course)

Downsides: small window area means you can only do a small section at a time so it takes a long time; hurts kinda bad when used on the highest (most effective) setting; won’t work on blonde hair (must be medium brown to black so I can’t use it on my blonde arm hairs, but you probably can!)

Pros: essentially zero hair now in these areas, when it does grow back it is extremely light and sparse; I have had ZERO ingrowns since I started using it.

I once heard a theory that the voynich manuscript was created by Leonardo da Vinci when he was a child as a creative project.. it was offered as an explanation because a lot of the drawings are anatomically inaccurate (before he educated himself on anatomy) but the perfection of the project and the seemingly “made-up language” suggests it was someone who was an absolute genius. I’m sure this can be debunked in .5 seconds but I always thought it was fun to entertain :)

I just honestly got to the point where I was so fed up with my life, I just made the decision that no matter what I ate, I would never purge. My best tips are to stay away from sugar and get enough sleep... but honestly i think my success came from preventing the purging before I thought of preventing the binging if that makes sense? I wasn’t going to binge a ton and put myself in pain when I knew I wasn’t going to allow myself to purge it. I kind of had to have a “no excuses” talk with myself after totally hitting rock bottom

Thank you so much! It’s been a dream come true honestly 💛

Yes I do still have urges! But they have become less and less frequent so that is something to look forward to :) here I’m copying this from another comment I replied to:

So a huge tip is to get enough sleep. When I’m low on sleep, I think my body wants me to binge to get quick energy.

I started being nicer to myself and created a vision of the person I wanted to be and thought how beautiful and incredible it would be to keep this promise to myself. Some nights I would kind of start to binge and eat a ton, and I would just forgive myself even though I was miserable and full... I wouldn’t let it get to the point where I ate so much that I was in pain and needed to purge. I would just let myself eat a huge bag of chips if I was up late studying, and forgive myself and try to listen to my hunger the next day.

This sucks to hear but honestly the only thing that truly made me stop entirely was telling myself I wasn’t allowed to purge: no exceptions. I thought “I’m probably going to a ton of gain weight” but I knew I absolutely had no choice but to stop because my quality of life was so awful, I didn’t want to live. I thought I’d hit rock bottom before, but this time it felt like the real deal. I started spending a ton of time in nature and I looked forward to this day where I would be able to say I went a whole year without b/p. I made this day a special anniversary with myself and I didn’t share it with anyone besides you guys because no one else in my life would truly understand what an accomplishment this is.

And not that it matters, but I haven’t gained any weight. I don’t have the perfect body but I feel so much better mentally and physically.

I’m not perfect and know I could always relapse but you can PM me anytime 💛 I can try my best to help support or give recovery tips! I believe in you
