Today, I had an IPL appointment. I gave up Brazilian waxing awhile ago and opted for IPL instead. More expensive but the Intense Pulsed Light treatments do not hurt the same way waxing does.
Well, generally it does not.
I think I have a decent pain threshold. After all, I had my babies without pain medication or epidural. And I did not scream. Or yell. While giving birth I mean.
Anyway, back to IPL. I like the results. Although it is just light, the damn thing that emits the light is also hot. Hot I tell you. Like a freaking iron.
The lady technician applied a very cold gel.. made sense since the damn thing was going to be hot as hell. Then she made several passes over my skin.
Had it been my leg or arm, I would be totally okay with it.
But it was not my arm or leg. It was my "down there".. LOL.
And trust me when I say, I was cringing as the damn thing got closer to the really sensitive part. F-ing thing was hot!!
Lol.
All I could do was pray. And try to not look horrified.

Bestie laughed when I sent a text later. She said I should give up my Christian Grey fantasies if I couldn't handle IPL ..
WTF. lol. I never said I had Christian Grey fantasies. I just mentioned to her that I had read the books. And I may or may not have expressed a mild fascination with the whole BDSM thing. That's it. Hahaha!
Besides, nowhere in the books were there any use of IPL implements lar.
Bugger bestie.
Here's a shot of the torture instrument used .. *shudder*
