@melis ARE YOU PILING ON ME? Pile. That makes me think of carpet. Which makes me think of euphemisms for cunnilingus. Full circle? FULL CIRCLE JERK?

@Gracefully and Grandly My laser lady actually suggested that I have a glass of wine first, so I say go for it!
And it absolutely does not hurt as much as waxing, for me at least. Nowhere close. Waxing for me always felt like someone was punching me repeatedly in the pubis.

@je suis un ananas Perhaps some orthopedic shoes?

@Beaker OMG, once I made the mistake of jogging to my appointment (don't worry, I quit exercise shortly thereafter) and when I showed up my face was really hot because exercise warm day etc.
Big mistake. Huge. The normal fleeting pain felt like someone was ass-slapping me with a kitchen towel, but on my face and angrily.
A couple other little bits of advice:
Take a few ibuprofen first! If you can get your hands on vicodin, definitely take one of those. Granted, since you're high and half naked you might end up talking to your poor nurse like she's a sex therapist, but whatevs, occupational hazard.
If you have sensitive teeth and are getting laser done on your upper lip, you might have some discomfort (and if you're weird about your teeth like I am, discomfort is a severe understatement). Ask the nurse for a piece of gauze and fold it up between your teeth and your upper lip. It helps tremendously.

@arrr starr Oh yeah, I mean, I just assume that all new shoes will destroy my feet. The thicker straps will be better, and probably leather is more pleasant than a manmade material since it'll be softer. And I just buy those colloidal bandaids for blisters and use them preemptively.

@themegnapkin oh sorry! Worst pain to least offensive pain. I really didn't even feel the nose piercing, such is the power of alcohol.
And they're different kinds of pain... like, laser hair removal in your pits is the pits (HA ugh) because it hits these nerves that travel down the arms, and it feels like crazy little lightning bolts shooting from your underarm to your fingertips. It's a very odd sensation, and honestly, not entirely unpleasant. Okay, mostly unpleasant.

@arrr starr My feet are the same way - like, my feet would be in the shoes but my arches are so high that you could literally touch the underside of my foot. And I can't wear shoes with straps unless they've got a buckle and I can stab an extra hole in the strap.
Do slingback heels work for you? For whatever reason those work really well for me, probably because they grab onto my heel and hold it down.

@Ellie If we sound exactly like we're 12 at the middle school lunch table then I should probably start lying about having already gotten my period.
