Hi there,
Fellow Middle Eastern 2nd year monkey here. Unfortunately, I am a bit hairy and this is causing insecurities. Since I have received my new bonus recently, I am planning on making the financial commitment and getting laser hair removal. Anyone (male or female) who has done this before? Would love to hear your experience on the cost, effectiveness, time commitment etc.
PS: make fun of me if you want idgaf I just want to get rid of it

Not going to make fun of you but there's probably better forums for people who've done this or are interested in doing this. Unless you feel there's a reason that bankers and prospects have particularly good insight into laser hair removal?
I know it's quite expensive so bankers are definitely a group that can afford this treatment. I also know that just like me most bankers tend to be obsessed with overcoming their insecurities so I thought asking this forum could be a good idea haha
Haha, fair enough. I'm actually considering myself although I'm not very hairy but it would just save me some grooming time. I've been told that if you're darker skinned (which may or may not apply to middle eastern people, tbh), you want to make sure you do it well before you actually have to take your shirt off because it may cause temporary acne or temporary (permanent if they suck at it) discolouration.
Following for the lols
This might be retarded, but could you get laser hair removal for your neck hairs? -- If it's a thing, it would mean never having to shave below the chin again. Which could be a worthwhile investment if you have the money.
Yeah, but then you have a bald spot if you grow out a beard.
People with beards still shave their necks
I got it on my cheeks so my stub doesn’t look as bad but don’t go a cheap place. Mine costed $500-750 (can’t remember) all in and the fucker got a piece of my sideburns. I wouldn’t do a ton of hair, you’ll be red for a while and it smells like shit
This forum is getting weirder and weirder by the day
More importantly, what was your bonus, what type of firm, what city?
Not a bad idea while you’re WFH
It can’t hurt, if you think it costs a lot for something you don’t know is worth it, you could potentially find a groupon for laser.
What is making you insecure about your hair? I think a cheaper alternative is waxing it. Do it once a month and you should be fine.
