Subject: Laser hair removal and EDS

I am finding it almost impossible to shave under my arms without having

shoulder dislocations. The 'obvious' solution is laser hair removal, but

is that suitable and safe for EDSers? Help!

I'm wondering if those little beard/nose trimmers might help. I would think

you'd hardly have to raise your arm at all. I don't know... just thinking.

out. Help!

Oh good question! I'd think this would be less traumatic to the skin then

waxing, but then again there are other things to consider like how you heal

and the bigger question of how on earth can you lie still for the time it

will take to do this? OUCH!

Have you considered the European look....a lot of men like it, but then

again, you may not. Just a silly thought in the wee hours of the morn,

having

had no sleep tonight yet. Oh!......here comes my lovely wife now, with a

metal baseball bat. Suppose, I'll be asleep momentarily....lol.
