Reply This all echoes what I was told by my clinic which was the skin can be easily burned by the sun after treatment for up to a year so must wear sun cream even on cloudy days. So perhaps this is where the skin cancer discussion and possible myth come from it’s easier to […]

Reply Not sure where you got your information from but the NHS suggests there is no known link between laser hair surgery and skin cancer. Did you get your information from a reliable source?

Question I was seriously considering going through a full-body laser hair removal. but read some very negative comments recently. Some say this can easily cause cancer! I’m now hesitant to go for it but other solutions don’t last long (ie. waxing…). I love to hear from other girls experienced on this topic.

Reply I think I’ve gone as far as I can with the hair-minimizing lotion by Johnsons. I can’t use Veet or the like, nor can I wax Attempts to do the same caused horrendous problems for me.

Hormones help a little but not much. A combination of Finasteride (Proscar or Propecia) a prescription-only drug, Regaine (OTC preparation) and Retin-A (script only) helps restore lost hair to the crown and vertex respectively.

Temporary: Veet, Razors, Epilators, Plucking, Waxing Permanent or believed to be: IPL, laser, Electrology.

Question After a chat with a few people, it seems to me that when ladies start on hormones, they also start on hair retardation medication as well. I was wondering, is it possible to use that without being on the hormones as well? How does it work? How does one go about getting it? I’d […]

I gave up trying to act “manly” in any way whatsoever, as it didn’t wash with hard-case macho types, anyway. Such types would never warm to me, anyway, as I’m way too femme for any pretense of being a geezer-bloke. So being androgynous can at times be a bit polarising. Those that support us, warm […]

Reply I love being androgynous, but becoming more feminine every day! I often get called miss or madam (which I love) and my partner laughed when the other day mail for “Martha” arrived. I’ve been wearing mostly “womens” clothes for years…exclusively now for 5 years….I threw all my man clothes out a few years ago. […]
