I am updating my review from a few years ago as Nicole/ Electroyogi has changed my life more than I had ever thought!
I began seeing Nicole for treatment back in 2017. And from my previous review below getting rid of the unwanted hair on my face due to my PCOS really helped me grow my self confidence. Especially being that I had then just recently moved to the LA area as a young person and was trying to figure out what to do for a career.
Over the duration of going to ElectroYogi for treatment, seeing how Electrolysis can change so many peoples life, and how Nicole provides such a comfortable, and safe environment for everyone, I became interested in starting a career in Electrolysis.
In 2018, I began school for my licensure in electrolysis. Learning how common unwanted hair growth is, and that there are so many different causes to why it may occur, this propelled my growing passion for this underserved community of people as the number of Electrologists even still, does not match the need of this service.
In 2019 after receiving my license, I began working at ElectroYogi as a Jr. Electrologist. I am so fortunate to have started with Nicole. Her and her team were so helpful and kind to work with when I was first starting out. I loved getting to know my clients and learning about everyones "hair journeys".
Though at the beginning of the pandemic I had to make a difficult decision and had to move back home. Fortunately, I have continued my Electrolysis career back home, and this summer I was so glad to travel as a guest Electrolysis at the ElectroYogi Studio. Nicole continues to be a wonderful mentor to me, and Working at ElectroYogi has solidified my ongoing passion for Electrolysis!
3 years ago:
I have been dealing with unwanted body hair for years, especially on my face. My hair is dark, coarse, grows back very quickly, and is quite noticable on my skin. Throughout the years have tried tweezing, waxing, laser hair removal, depilatories, epilatories, bleaching, shaving etc. Some methods were painful and/or left me with very irritated skin as my skin is also quite sensitive. Above all these are all temporary solutions. Though over the years, I have come to embrace some of my body hair, but my facial hair is something I am still extremely self conscious about. It has been a hinderance in my life, as it plays a major decision factor in my social life.
I was tired of feeling held back by this unwanted hair, so at a bit of a wit's end I did a bit of research. I came across ElectroYogi Electrolysis, and scheduled an appointment with Nicole, the founder and Owner of ElectroYogi. I was a bit nervous upon my first consultation as I really didn't know much about Electrolysis or what to expect with the treatments. I was a little hesitant in investing in Electrolysis as I thought my hairs would just be too stubborn, but even after my first treatment I noticed a difference. Nicole answered all and any questions I had about Electrolysis upon our initial appointment. She is very knowledgeable, and so accommodating and caring. The treatments are efficient, getting the most hairs with the most accuracy within your scheduled time. I know everyone has a different pain tolerance, though as someone with extra sensitive skin, the treatment is so tolerable and really only feels like a little pinch for a few seconds.
The ElectroYogi home studio is very clean, comfortable, and the machines for treatments are up to date, and very well kept. The staff is communicative, along with being super wonderful and sweet. They truly care about what they do and really try and get to know their clients as well.
After a few treatments with Electro Yogi my hair is growing back slower, finer, or not at all! I am so grateful for Nicole and ElectroYogi!
