Kim Kardashian Loves Laser Hair Removal

LaserGal — Tue, 14 Dec 2010 15:18:27 +0000

By now almost everyone knows Kim Kardashian loves hair removal. It’s one of her favourite things to open up about. There she was on The View the other day deflecting questions about who she’s dating by talking about hair removal.

Obviously she’s not the going to deal with shaving, ingrown hairs, 3-day re-growth and endless waxing… So Kardashian trusts laser hair removal.

“I am obsessed with laser hair removal,” she said. “Arms, bikini, legs, underarms…my entire body is hairless.”

Whether you love or hate this reality girl, the bottom line is that she only does the most top of the line treatments and the most convenient type of hair removal that gives the best results. Hey, if it’ good enough for Kim…

Bang! Marc gets Groomed!

LaserGal — Mon, 27 Sep 2010 15:54:51 +0000

When Marc Jacobs burst onto the fashion scene in the 90′s he was a sweaty hairy pudgy four-eyed nerd. Yes, his clothes were and will always be genius, but his personal appearance left a lot to be desired.

Then one day he emerged like male Cinderella at the Met Ball: he was slim, tanned muscular and gorgeous. The transformation was so complete that I thought it might be some kind of fashion hoax, but Marc Jacobs 2.0 has endured and now his buff body even serves as eye candy for his new men’s fragrance “Marc Jacobs Bang.”

Looking at this ad just makes me want to say Hallelujah! for laser hair removal. You can tell that Jacobs is meticulously groomed. His legs are sparsely hairy, his chest has a hint of masculine tuft and his pubic area has been cleared of unappealing spindly black hairs. Mazal tov Marc!

Reality Stars (?) . . . And Their On-Air Laser Hair Removal Habits (Does Laser Hair Removal Hurt?)

Hi Ya’ll!

The most exciting thing that happened on last night’s episode of the Bravo reality show, Million Dollar Listing, is that Chad got laser hair removal. Doesn’t say much for the show (or for my one-track mind when it comes to laser hair removal).

Anyway, this real estate agent turned reality star Chad Rogers (? yeah, me neither) is beyond obnoxious. He uses cute little dogs to soften-up potential clients, and rolls his eyes like a grouchy teenager when things don’t go his way.

So, Chad walks into his Los Angeles laser center and greets the technician “Hi Miss Eugenia” to which she responds “Hello Mister Chad.” Ridic! Okay, so the point here isn’t just to poke fun at these ridiculously self-important Californians, the point is that Chad is doing laser hair removal on TV!

Mister Chad begins by telling Miss Eugenia that his main concern is to “not look like a monkey” and she quickly passes him the safety glasses and starts zapping his back with her Luminous Light Sheer. This diode laser is sort of outdated so it’s surprising that they’re using it at this “posh” LA center.

Does Chad look like an ape?

Chad described the level of pain as feeling “like a hundred rubber bands snapping on his back.” This is a comparison I’ve often read on other laser hair removal blogs and websites but I don’t really see how it’s true. I think the power of suggestion is strong here, people go in feeling like it’s going to be “as painful as rubber bands snapping” and low and behold… That’s what it feels like!

As my colleague Will always points out to clients on the telephone, “the truth is, 80% of guys complain that it hurts, and only 10% of women make a peep!” Perhaps women are not only the fairer, but also, the stronger gender??

My first time having laser hair removal, I went in completely blind, I knew nothing and expected nothing. As the technician started on my legs and then my upper lip I remember thinking ‘wow! This isn’t’ painful at all, I barely feel it’. Then she progressed to my bikini, and well, things got a little touchier. It did feel like small tiny pricks. Good thing the areas that are more sensitive (underarms and bikini) are smaller, so the more sensitive parts last only a few minutes.

Anyway, that’s all for now. I’ve given you the low-down on whether laser hair removal is painful.

It’s a beautiful Sunday in New York City. I have an appointment for a laser facial and microdermabrasion booked for tomorrow, so I’ll give you the lowdown when I get back…

Thanks for reading,

Kelly Ripa Loves Laser Hair Removal

Laser Gal — Wed, 14 Oct 2009 16:07:44 +0000

Good morning Y’all!

OMG! So I’m watching Live with Regis and Kelly like I do every morning. I’ve got one eye on the TV as I try to get my butt out the door. Regis is complaining about his old aching body, “my psoas muscle is killing me!”

Then Kelly blurts out these magical words… Here is a transcript of the conversation (that validates everything I ever said about laser hair removal!):

KELLY: Swine flu is the number one conversation I have with my ‘mom friends’. When we go out, we usually talk about our husbands and laser hair removal. Now it’s all swine flu.”

REGIS: Let me ask you something about laser hair removal. Have u had this done?

KELLY: YES!

REGIS: Laughs… Did it hurt?

KELLY: Yeah. Yeah… A little.

REGIS: Are you gonna do it again?

KELLY: I don’t have to do it again!

REGIS: The hair is gone forever? No more?

KELLY: It’s gone for good sweety pie.

REGIS: I’m so happy to here that.

And there you have it people, Kelly Ripa has done my job and promoted laser hair removal and that just made my day! Go on, be like Kelly! She looks great strolling Manhattan streets, or on the beach! Simply fab!

This celebrity forgot to shave her legs before hitting the red carpet. Can you guess who she is?

Which celebrity’s armpits are these? With a little underarm laser hair removal, she would never have had this unsightly stubble!

If you guessed Beyonce, 28, Singer, you are CORRECT.

The Truth About Cosmetic Enhancements and Looking Good (Part II)

Laser Gal — Fri, 04 Sep 2009 14:00:40 +0000

Yesterday, I wrote about Demi Moore’s questionable and frustrating statement in US Weekly that she has never had plastic surgery.

It seems, however, that at least one celebrity (and her sister), Kim Kardashian, has been quite honest about her body and how she keeps it looking great.

Kim Kardashian

She’s come out saying she has cellulite. I think all women breathed a sigh of relief when, on The View, she looked amazing and proclaimed: “I have cellulite, All women do, it’s not a big deal!” She said as Whoopie, Joy and Barbara stared in shock at her candid comment.

Kardashian and her sisters also went for laser hair removal on an episode of their reality show. That was so cool, I think it was the first time I saw a celebrity doing laser… I was watching the show with my friend Shelly, and I was like, see! It’s not dangerous and she does it!

We don’t like to admit how much we’re influenced by celebs and their habits, but when we learn some of their beauty secrets, we gotta try them (especially if they’re safe and not too pricey).

I’m off to do a laser facial and one of my last laser hair removal sessions on my under arms!

Love the laser! See y’all soon,

The Truth About Cosmetic Enhancements and Looking Good (Part I) (Celebrity Procedures)

Laser Gal — Thu, 03 Sep 2009 17:26:51 +0000

Hi Y’all,

I’m simply frustrated today . . . I just read US Weekly . . . They reprinted a quote from French Marie Claire where Demi Moore denies ever having plastic surgery!

Demi Moore has furiously denied that her remarkably youthful appearance is the result of plastic surgery. Yet, the 46-year-old actress has managed to stay looking like a woman in her twenties for two decades, prompting speculation that she has spent at least $400,000 remodelling her face and body. She always appears to compare well with her husband, actor and producer Ashton Kutcher, who is 15 years her junior.

“It’s completely false, I’ve never had it done,” says the actress, 46. “But I would never judge those who have.”

Really?? How gracious of Demi to not judge those who have had procedures done . . . .

I’m frustrated because she’s obviously not speaking truthfully (did you see her in Striptease?), but more importantly when she denies it, millions of women think “I’ll never look like her because she’s naturally youthful and smooth, there is no treatment that will help me?” But that’s absolutely WRONG!

Cosmetic enhancements are SO common . . . . And I’m not talking about full-on face lifts and Botox shots, those might be a little intense, but the little treatments that can make the difference between looking lame and lovely have never been more accessible. My mom has been getting laser facials and microdermabrasion and honestly, her skin has never looked better. She’s 64 and she looks amazing.

These cosmetic sessions are affordable and easy, but since celebrities keep their beauty secrets under wraps the average girl thinks she can’t compete.

Demi won’t tell you she gets laser facials or microdermabrasion — she won’t tell you, her agent won’t tell you, Ashton won’t tell you . . . But I will tell you and I hope you’re listening.

My Top 5 Celebrities Who Need Laser Hair Removal

Laser Gal — Mon, 27 Jul 2009 16:32:54 +0000

Good Morning!

Let’s kick off this week by poking fun at celebrities and their unruly hairy selves. This is not one of those “if you can’t beat ‘em join ‘em” situations; getting busted with unkempt hair is always unacceptable, and especially so if you’re an often photographed celeb!

It’s hard to believe that with all the assistants and helpers around some famous people still walk out the door (and onto the red carpet) with hairy underarms! Hey, celebs, we know you’re super busy, but with a few laser hair removal sessions, you’ll never worry about an embarrassing photo like these ever again. Here are the top 5 celebs who really to start laser beaming their hair!

1. DREW BARRYMORE

DREW BARRYMORE famously revealed hairy armpits at Fashion Week in 2005. Even though she has a flower-child hippie reputation, this is no reason for hairy armpits!

2. ALICIA KEYS

ALICIA KEYS has the voice of an angel . . . And the hairy chest of a bear cub. It may be soft and fuzzy little baby hairs, but the bottom line is that it’s just unflattering.

3. FERGIE

FERGIE has hot dance moves and a decent voice, but she’s quickly becoming known as the queen of mess ups. First ,The Black Eyed Peas front woman peed herself on stage during a concert in San Diego and then, she showed off these long hairy-hairy underarms. She may be a fashion forward fashionistas, but this is one fashion faux pas she should try not to repeat!

4. SHARON STONE

SHARON STONE has been famous for a long time, so she’s had time to commit lots of gaffes and countless terrible fashion faults. In the 1980s for a very short while it was cool to flaunt unshaven underarms . . . This is truly a look that should remain in the past, no one wants to see the hair under there!

5. TYRA BANKS

SHE can dish it, so I hope she can take it! I’m a fan of her talk show, and of her outspokenness regarding her body, but this is one thing she should change: a thick coat under your arms? Really?!?! It sounds like you need to remodel yourself!
