Interesting, thank you ladies for the information. I will try an epilator soon.

I had no idea the LHR caused pain???

That's smart. Try the epilator first. If it works for you, great. You'll be amazed how painful it is at first, too.

I have not experienced laser yet, but there are plenty of reports out attesting to the pain. The laser heats the hair to a high temperature right down to the root. That's what kills the root -- heat. If there are a lot of follicles under the laser, it feels like cigarette snuffed out on your skin. Not pleasant.

Why couldn't I have been born a girl?

As the hair density drops with each successive treatment, the pain gets less and less. That's one thing good about the Tria 4X. The laser width is small, so the pain per flash is less.
