I’ve been a bargain bin girlie from day one—DIY beauty, generic brands, and clearance racks are my love language. Botox? Never tried it. Nails? Done at home. Haircuts? My girlfriend’s handiwork. So for body hair, I stuck to the basics: drugstore razors, conditioner as shaving cream, and aloe for the aftermath. It wasn’t glamorous, but it was cheap.
When my coworkers started hyping LaserAway, I rolled my eyes hard. Who pays that much to be hairless? Fast forward one year and eight rounds of laser later: I’m the problem, it’s me. I did the math, sat through the zaps, and I don’t regret a thing.
