Transitioning is a deeply personal journey, and for many transgender women, men, and non-binary people, managing unwanted hair can play an important role in feeling comfortable and confident in their own skin.
For transgender women, electrolysis can make a huge difference—whether you’re looking to permanently remove facial hair, smooth body hair, or refine your hairline. At my studio, I offer tailored solutions to support your transition and help you feel more confident and comfortable in your body.
Why Electrolysis Matters for the Trans Community
Hair can be a source of gender dysphoria for many transgender individuals. For trans women, facial and body hair may not align with their gender identity.
While laser hair removal is a popular method, it isn’t suitable for all skin or hair types, and it should not be used on delicate facial areas. Electrolysis, however, works on all hair colours, types, and skin tones, making it the gold standard for permanent hair removal during transition.
Key Benefits of Electrolysis for Transgender Clients
Works on all hair colours and types
Permanent results with ongoing treatment
Safe for facial areas
Can target small or sensitive areas with precision
A reliable alternative for clients who cannot use laser
Electrolysis vs Laser Hair Removal
Understanding the difference between electrolysis and laser hair removal is crucial when choosing a treatment:
For many transgender clients, electrolysis is the safer and more effective choice—especially for facial hair and fine details.
What to Expect at ElectroGlow Studio
At ElectroGlow Studio, my aim is to provide a comfortable, private, and inclusive experience for all clients. Each treatment begins with an initial consultation to discuss your goals, answer questions, and create a personalised treatment plan.
The Consultation
During your consultation, we will:
Discuss the areas you want treated
Review your medical history and any concerns
Explain how electrolysis works and what to expect during sessions
Estimate the number of sessions required for your desired results
The Treatment
Electrolysis involves using a fine probe to target each hair follicle individually with a carefully selected setting, ensuring safe and precise treatment. While some areas may feel slightly uncomfortable, the process is safe and effective. Sessions typically last from 30 minutes up to 2 hours, depending on the size of the treatment area.
Post-Treatment Care
Aftercare is simple but important (here are a few):
Avoid sun/heat exposure on treated areas
Keep the skin clean and moisturised
Avoid picking/touching or scrubbing the treated hair
