Main Line Electrolysis
“After struggling with stubborn chin hair for years—tweezing weekly or dermaplaning occasionally – I finally decided to try electrolysis after discussing this with my dermatologist. She informed me that laser would not work on blond/gray hair and recommended Amarillis Stricker. I only wish I had done it sooner. The results have been great. My chin is now smooth and hair-free.
The process takes time. That’s because hair grows in cycles —only the hairs in the active growth phase (anagen) can be permanently treated. Since not all hairs are in that phase at once, you need multiple sessions to catch them all. Take the time to read about this so you understand how hair grows and why it takes long. The discomfort is minimal, and Amarillis is very capable. She will explain the hair growth process to you as well. I suspect most people don’t realize how long it will take.
I saw her for about a year, first going every two to three weeks, initially for 45 mins and sometimes every three or four weeks, depending on my schedule. In total, I saw her for 20 sessions roughly half of them for 30 minutes and half of them for 45 minutes.
Amarillis is a lovely and interesting woman to talk to, so aside from getting great treatment, you will enjoy her company. The environment is very calming and clean. And her prices are reasonable.
If you’re considering electrolysis, do it. Be patient, stay consistent, and trust the process. Permanent hair removal through electrolysis works.”
