As a student, something that I'm always short on is time. Despite the fact that I'm only at university two days a week and at work one day a week, there never seems to be enough time to do the things that I'd like to do. I can remember being a little girl and the days going by incredibly slowly, however now, I never seem to get a second to sit down, chill out and quite frankly, pamper myself.
Hair removal isn't the first thing that pops into my head when I think about "pampering." However, it's something that as a woman, I think is necessary. Although I may slack a bit in winter when I'm not showcasing my legs everyday, I generally hate having hairy, stubbly legs. My main method of hair removal is shaving as it's quick and easy. But sadly, regrowth is pretty much instant. As I'm an avid shaver, I have to shave my legs every single day which gets annoying and is time consuming.
I've tried waxing but I don't find the at-home kits very good and salons end up becoming expensive. I've tried hair removal creams but for me, they sting my skin and I've bled from using them in the past - they smell awful too. I do have an epilator but that's currently sat in a drawer waiting to be used as it looks like a torture device. I do however, use the shaving head of my epilator which once again is something that I have to do daily.
Something that I have considered for a while is permanent laser hair removal. This method of hair removal is safe and pretty much painless as it works by transmitting a laser beam onto the base of the hair follicle which halts hair growth. The thing that draws me into laser hair removal is the fact that although it's expensive, it's permanent. Once you've had it done, there's a high chance that the hair will never grow back again - I can't imagine how perfect and convenient it would be to never have to shave again.
The amount of times my friends and I have decided that we're going out at last minute is unreal. It ends up with us all racing to the shower to shave our legs so we can wear our favourite dress - it's a nightmare. As well as being permanent, laser hair treatments can be used on any part the body - even your toes if you wish!
When browsing the Sk:n Clinics website to write this post, I also noticed their acne scar treatments. If you're a regular reader of my blog then you'll know that acne scarring is something that I suffer extremely badly with. Sk:n Clinics offer skin peels, dermarollers and many more to help eliminate the appearance of acne scarring and as a result of this, I've booked myself in for a consultation.

Have you considered laser hair removal before? Or is it something that you've had done? What's your prefered method of hair removal?
