Laser hair removal? It's more likely than you think.

I've been hearing about the whole laser-hair-removal concept for the past few years- first, on the radio, where advertising for "Ideal Image - Laser Hair Removal" had almost saturated the entire morning radio adspace.

The ads were relatively unobtrusive, actually- no obnoxious jingles, no super-speedy-disclaimer at the end, and memorable, to boot. That's good advertising, in my opinion.

Then I discovered that a few of my ladyfriends (and a guy friend, too) had determined that they were going to try the process out- and the results were absolutely astounding.

I maintain a beard regularly (shaped, too) - and the amount of effort to shave and discomfort that comes with a tiny bit of stubble on a regular basis. When I saw the results of what I had assumed was another açaí diet, I discovered that the waxed-skin-smooth feeling is completely attainable without regular self-injury.

What do y'all think of the whole idea? Lasers and skin still sound a bit eerie to me.
