Yep, i was lazy this week in keeping this updated. Lots of things happened this week. On tuesday, i had my first meeting for hair removal. The place i went to said it could take 1-2 years at 4 hours per week at a cost of $90/hr. So 90 x 4 x 52 = $18,720 per year!!! i don't know how, but i maintained my composure during the entire meeting. I wanted to throw up.
Thankfully on Wednesday, i went to a place that does electrolysis and laser hair removal. She had the exact same idea i did for facial removal, laser first and if necessary electrolysis later. Laser can only be done once every 8 weeks because of the hair growth cycle (hair grew in cycles, who knew!) and so you have to wait for the affected hairs to fall out first to see if or how the hair grows back. Laser will cost at most $230/mo. for 8-12 months. For non math oriented people thats $1840 to $2760 TOTAL. It is the only time in my life, I am grateful to have dark hair and truly feel bad for blonde & redhead transwomen.
Thursday, not a lot happened.
Friday, work was really busy which was good! It made friday go extra quick! Later on, however, I met up with the last family member that i have not come out to yet. I had no issues telling them what i have gone through and what i'm currently going through but once they said "we love and support you" the tears started flowing. How embarrasing to try to maintain your composure at a public restaurant! It sucked but there was no better way to do it.
I have a fun saturday lined up. Will tell more tonight!
