Personally I chose Laser do eat a well known skincare clinic run by a dermatologist. I went 4 or 5 times underarms and hair gone might have one or two little hairs and 8 times for bikini area and all gone.

If you can afford it go for laser - longer lasting results in a shorter amount of time.

I had laser under my arms about 8 years ago. I only get a couple of hairs grow which are are easily waxed out. Definitely money well spent.

Electrolysis is the only completely permanent method of hair removal thats guaranteed?

I think laser is better for large areas and people with light skin and dark hair. Its just not always guaranteed, not as much as electrolysis anyway.

why is it better if its not guaranteed?

Because its much quicker for larger areas and much less painful but isn't always successful on darker skin and lighter hair.
