welp. just bit the bullet and bought a fancy ass IPL. hopefully this thing works
in other news, any idea how to start looking for a place to do laser/electrolysis? this body/facial hair shit sucks and i want to get rid of it. does anyone know where to find ones where i don't have to lie about my name/gender?

Helps to ask trans folks in your community about chill electrologists and laser technicians! I also just called ahead or emailed to a few places and asked have you have done hair removal for transgender clients. Itβs nerve wracking, for sure, but nice to vet folks before giving your time and money in person.

damn. where do i find how to talk to real ass trans people nearby? that's just a generally good place to start for anything, really, but i haven't done that yet
-
See if you can find queer meetings in your area! I know a nearby city to me has weekly trans adult meetings at one of the community centers.

Do you have health insurance? You should ask them who they cover if you do
-
I thought it was incredibly unlikely to get hair removal covered, but if I can get it covered there's no reason not to I guess
-
Depends on your state. If you are on the West Coast you probably can. I pay a 25 dollar copay for laser but seriously beats regular price.
Otherwise, I highly recommend you check out Groupon for laser. I've seen good discounts for packages that equal out to 50 dollar laser sessions which is relatively cheap for laser
