Bankers getting laser hair removal?

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

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.

 

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.
