| | | Basically these people are bitching because its not a real SPA. Its a medi-spa. A medi-spa basically looks like a dr.'s office or clinic. It is not going to be serene or pretty(fancy) like a real spa. My place looks exactly like a dr.'s office. Its very sparse and generic looking. My new place will be different but that's just what I want. They do use an IPL for hair removal which is not that great in some areas. HOWEVER it would be fine for somewhere like the under arms. I would not do it on my face or other areas. This is just my opinion though.... |

| | | Yeah the place where I would be considering would be just my under arms. Didn't inherit the Asian lack of body hair there >:O sorry if TMI, haha...

| | WOw. Awesome! I bought a groupon in Fresno a while back for Laser... had one treatment so far. Went great. I am sooo bummed though! There is a chance we may be moving back to Boston... so I will loose out  I didn't realize they had to be spaced 2 mos apart... Charla do you know if theres any sucess in doing the treatments closer together??
I am still looking for a great groupon near me for keratin or brazilian blowout! I really want straighter hair |

Charla, thank you again! i'll try to post up anything i see, but i don't know much about the lasers  i bought the max i could, so for 9 treatments total. do you think that'll be enough to see results?
i can't decide which parts i want to do! i may splurge and do the full brazilian (just have to pay extra when i go in) and then pay for the underarms. |

| | | it's underarms or bikini line.
OR i can pay $120 for each voucher (covering 3 treatments) for brazilian or lower legs.
OR i can pay $425 for each for full legs.
i want to get underarms, brazilian, and full legs, but i think i can hold off until i start making "lawyer money" lol.
right now, they're having a special (apart from the groupon) that's $59 for one underarm session, so i thought maybe i'd pay the extra $360 for the brazilian and just pay for the underarm too.
i hate shaving my legs, but it's much easier than underarms and brazilian. |

My friend owns the studio and their facials are amazing. |

| | do you think i could do 6 treatments for the brazilian and then have 3 go towards legs (which i would continue treatments with after, of course)? or would that be risky as to whether the treatments were finished? it's $59 per session. i'm going to contact the AW place tomorrow |

| | | I can't figure out how to copy the link on my phone, but there's a Groupon for a place called Glenoaks laser center in Glendale. Thoughts? It's $89 for either 3 sessions for 2 small areas, or 6 sessions for a medium area. I'm not super hairy but I'd love to never have to shave/wax my underarms or bikini area. I'm just wondering how much the "bikini line" treatment includes as opposed to the Brazillian - is there a standard or should I call and ask? |
