i decided to transition into this career path as it was a way to materially impact the lives of fellow trans people and erase boundaries that they face. It sounds dramatic, but I think of myself as less of an aesthetician and more of someone who helps improve mental health and makes you harder to discriminate against in daily life.
I am not one to impose traditional norms of femininity on anyone, but the world we live in is how it is.
I operate with a severe sliding scale payment model, which slides upwards to the extent that wealthier clients are able to pay it forward to fund free sessions for folks with less means, and downwards to the extent that it costs me money to work on someone (that is okay and everyone deserves this kind of service if they want it)
In addition to my own little practice I'm also working at another clinic which is also trans focused, and does a lot of work for folks who are prepping for lower surgeries as well as general gender affirming hair removal. This also means I work with a lot of trans dudes who are prepping for their lower surgeries, so it's not only trans fem folks
Ask me anything about hair removal
edit: Have a question in the future and this post is really old? Feel free to reply or DM me - I've been posting here for years and it's unlikely to stop until i'm a corpse
i've had six sessions of laser on my face and chest and a lot of hair is seemingly gone for good, unless you pay attention to it being a bit patchy you can't really tell i've had any treatment
my skin is very fair, but my bodyhair is lightbrown to blonde so it could have been more effective, six sessions cost me about $700 (a pass over my face and chest each session)
I was also supressing my T at the time so I had less active hair follicles generally (to my understanding)
i'm not the op but this was my experience, I wouldn't get more laser in a hurry due to the expense.
it was fun watching hairs fall while I had it done at least
thanks for the info! i might go for this once im a year into taking E
