By the way, this will only work if the electrologist can actually kill telogen hair. Like Josefa does.
Most electrologists will tell you to let the hair grow out as long as possible and they will seem to effectively remove every single one. But 3 months later you realize, only the anagen died, which is about 20%-30% at best during any given time. If you add insertion mistakes or wrong settings/needle, the percentage of effectiveness decreases even further.
That’s why you won’t see much of a change in hair growth during the first few clearances with “an anagen only electrologist.”
Which makes me wonder, if you’re planning to do bodywork with such an electrologist, wouldn’t you be better off letting all the hair grow out, then waxing the hair and getting a full clearance about, lets say, 8 weeks later? Like you’d do for laser?
While not all hair will be present a large percent should be in anagen and therefore the effectiveness ought to be better.
PS. Another I noticed about electrologists who kill only anagen hairs, they generally have a better kill rate with a non-insulated needle coupled with higher settings. Maybe their insertion is too deep then?
