- Nicole, founder of ElectroYogi Electrolysis, discusses all you need to know about getting electrolysis on the Bikini Area. She covers topics such as how to prepare you hair and skin for the most effective treatment, how long each session will be, and how long it takes to completely treat the area.
I’m starting school next month after years of hair removal as a client. You are preparing me to navigate this field as a professional. thank you❤
Hi. I would like to ask you when you are doing electrolysis for your clients, let say if they booked 30 minutes session are those 30 minutes include the preparation for the electrolysis and after care or you are doing only 30 minutes hair removal. Today I got 30 minutes session and I saw that my electrologist made the timer for 28 minutes. What do you think about this? Is that the way it supposed to be? Thanks.
Hi Nicole, you said starting with laser can shorten electrolysis time from 3-4 years to around 1.5 assuming we're removing all of the hair. I'm curious how many sessions of laser it would take to get that reduction level to start electrolysis, and how long this mixed method would take to see the same completely bare results.
Hi Tiffany, I believe laser on your bikini (if you have dark hair and lighter skin than the hair) may give you about a 50% reduction. This will still have to happen over about a 12-18 month period and then in the subsequent roughly year, electrolysis would finish the rest of the job permanently.
ElectroYogi I’m super nervous about an appointment in a couple days. My electrologist says I’m her 2nd client she’s doing for this area (the video’s subject), which makes me feel even more embarrassed/nervous. I trust her, but it’s such an intimate area it’s a bit much for me😅 From an electrologist’s point of view is there any reassurances you could give when treating this area on a client?
Love this video! Very awkward question, but will electrolysis permanently remove all the hair from the pubic region, including butt crack? If so, does using a tropical numbing cream in any way affect the overall results of the treatment?
hi Brooke! there are no awkward questions (unless someone is rude and inappropriate ;)... and you are not! Electro can definitely remove ALL that hair, but I will tell you that it will take a long time. Our bikini area has a lot of hair, and a lot of growth cycles of the hair (meaning, hair grows in the bikini area for a long period of time, 2nd and 3rd only to the legs and the hair on our heads!). So, if you're not a good candidate for laser in this area, then def do electro, but be prepared for a long journey. Numbing cream is VERY helpful, and does not affect the success of your treatments whatsoever. Good luck to you! nicole
Very TRUTHFUL you all. LISTEN TO HER. She has answered ALL questions.
Thank you, Aretha!
You sweetly answered everything in a very precise way.
Thanks for this information :)
thank you so much!
Thanks for the info. Is scarring common in bikini area with electrolysis?
This was so educational! Thank you!
you're welcome! I'll be posting more videos soon!!
@@ElectroYogi can you use shaving machine
I'm so glad I found your channel.
Thanks a lot nichole ,,,Can I do it once at a time, even if my practitioner agrees to do for 7 hours at one day ?? And why there's a time a apart between a each setion ?
Hi Ann, I don't quite understand your question. I would NEVER recommend doing 7 hours straight of electro. It would be a LOT for your skin to handle in one day. I'd rather see someone spread the work around.
I have done 12 sessions of lower face laser hair removal by gentle yag pro u.... So if I want to do electrolysis how much sessions would I need like laser doesn't give me much better results the hair is only thinner and the beautician razor my clear (HAIRFREE NECK) as well which cause hair to grow there as well..... Please answer 😭💔
I'm thinking about getting this but I'm afraid it may hurt since I hate needles :( does it really hurt? 😭
it can be uncomfortable, depending on the area, but worth it! everyone has a different pain tolerance, so it's really hard for me to say what would be too painful for you. in 13 years of business, I have only had about 3 people EVER not be able to handle the discomfort, and usually it is because they are highly sensitive, and maybe not that committed to the process.
The "needle" slips into the pore, which is already an open hole in your skin. You will NOT be poked. I also ABHOR needles and am LOVING electrolysis (had 4 sessions and booked 3 more). The discomfort, if any, comes from the application of the electrical current; it should NOT be more uncomfortable than tweezing the hair (except this is PERMANENT). After the electrical current is applied, the hair slips right out with the professional's tweezer. If you see the tiniest mark of blood, it's the follicle that has essentially been cauterized. If you're considering it, I HIGHLY recommend. DO NOT mess with the scabs; it'll cause scarring. Your body will shed the scabs on its own. I also recommend a regimen of Bactine and Neosporin post-treatment, especially right before bed as the body does its best healing when you're asleep. I've already had my torso (boobs & tummy) and eyebrows treated and am sooo happy with the results (another lockdown? bring it on; no more Ukranian peasant look here!). Bikini line & legs/underarms are next. See if you can get your hands on a topical numbing cream, such as lidocaine, from a LEGIT source as Nicole suggested. Bonne chance!
Is it safe for this to be done on the genital/Brazilian area? I have only heard of the bikini line but I have areas of the back and also inner that I would love to target? if those details/areas make sense?

@@ilya8132 👌 thanks 😀
Can you do them in parallel! Laser and electroysis?
What happens if you shave more than 3 or 4 days before?
I have bad ingrown hairs. In my pubic region I will try this next month.
it will take awhile to get rid of the ingrowns, but once the hair follicles are destroyed, ingrowns will vanish and your skin will heal! I recommend shaving with CLIPPERS instead of a blade, if you're suffering from ingrowns.
@@ElectroYogi ok thanks you I did my first treatment today. It hurt, but not badly.
@@MegaloNaa hello after all this time are you still getting the treatment in the pubic region? Also have you seen a reduction in the ingrowns?
Hey Nicole! Who do you refer in Raleigh,NC?
I wish I had a referral for you! I'm so sorry.
ElectroYogi Electrolysis np thank you
Can you do electrolysis if you had used Nair before?
sure.
Your videos are so helpful! Can you do it the reverse way, try electrolysis and then do laser?
You can do anything, for sure, Chun Myung. In my professional opinion, laser is good to do FIRST, and only on the body, and ONLY when you have Very coarse or dense, dark hair, and light skin. Then electrolysis can finish the job to permanently remove it. Otherwise, electrolysis is the truly permanent solution from start to finish, though time consuming!
ElectroYogi Electrolysis is electro-sorry I’m still stuck on the spelling but is it good for darker skin tones (I’m sorry if you’ve already mentioned this already)
@@miyarosie5364 electro works wonders on dark skin and dark hair! i am italian and brazilian and can attest!
@@ElectroYogi Which method of electrolysis works best for African Americans about Oprah's complexion? Does it have to be blended technique or can thermo be used effectively on bikini area?
Hello
I have pcos and i want to know if i get electrolysis done on my bikini region, will it affect my fertility ( any affect to my ovaries ?)
I want you to do mine !!
I wish I could get this but too much inflammation
consider icing after treatment, then heat after the 2nd day! and lots of lotion, to keep it healing quickly.
@@ElectroYogi I think I would have to talk to my dermatologist she only recommended laser and waxing since I have Hidradenitis suppurativa and I'm not sure if a needle could be sticked inside of an infected hair follicle I'm hoping it helps though
shaving an extreme amount of ingrown hairs
you need to get rid of those hairs permanently to not have ingrowns.
