Shaving, is it fair that some men get razor burn, little annoying cuts and just plain out hate shaving, and other men shave once a week and the hair falls off so easily? No it is not, but instead of complaining I have went on a mission for all of us men and I have found a remedy. See I have fair skin and dark hair so my 5 o’clock shadow shows up at around one o’clock! Not to mention that it grows as fast as you can add water to a chia pet. . In addition to the chia pet feature, I get very bad razor burn, so after trying everything under the sun all the different products for men, new razors, an electric razor, everything under the sun and guess what? None of them worked. The remedy I found is Laser Hair Removal and I did it on my face. Yes it is odd, and yes I was a guinea pig for the laser boutique. They had never had a request for a man to do his face. But I was fed up and needed to do something extreme so I did it.
I went in for my first session, they had me put some numbing cream on my face about an hour before I got there, I was a little nervous but I was ok when we got started. Then I couldn’t figure out if I was getting interrogated by Jack Bauer from 24 or a nice girl was doing her job!! WOW that laser is crazy, it felt like an electric shock every second, I was sweating I was trying to act macho,( the girl was hot) even though I wanted to cry. But after the session was over I washed my face realized I wasn’t in jail and washed my face.
I did six sessions in about an eight week period, after the third period I started noticing my hairs wouldn’t all grow back. It was growing back in patches, which wasn’t that big of a deal but it did look a little weird for a few weeks. After my 5th session the patchiness had stopped. I did my last session which was my 6th one and wanted to see what would happen, also my goal in doing the laser wasn’t to never have my hair grow back I just wanted it to slow down and try to get the razor burn and the irritation away
The results were great, I went from shaving every other day, to twice a week, no more razor burns, no more skin irritations it was amazing. I paid $75.00 a session and it was well worth it. I loved the way how I got to cut down on shaving, but I have to say the best part was getting rid of the skin irritations, and razor burns getting rid of that alone was worth the shock therapy( you get used it after the second time). It is 6 years later and its time for me to go back to the torture chamber, I guess the timeline is about 6 years. So I am making the call and doing it again. If anyone hates shaving as much as I do then you just found your remedy. You can call any local laser place(make sure they are reputable, it is you face)set up an appointment and Voila your all set to go. Have fun if you decide to do it please let me know email me at
