I have a friend who had it done, we were talking about on another site so I'll copy her reply across :

I got too tired of doing it so I decided to go for it and took what I didn't want for real. I choose the laser tecnique, it takes about an year, cause you do a section every two months and in that area takes about 5 to 6 times (it depends), but you have no hair at all during the sections. You choose how much you want to do and you got a permanent bikini area done. It's really wonderfull. I'm really happy I did it. It's very confortable and I never had worries about that anymore


Sounds good to me - I just need the money!
