Kat Blaque
January 28 2016 / 4:09 PM

        What It's Like to Get Laser Hair Removal As a Trans Person 
    
Kat Blaque
November 16 2015 / 2:06 PM
I got laser for the first time about a year ago. I get a special kind of laser called "yag laser." It is specifically made for people who have dark skin and dark hair. I've had pretty good results, but I haven't gone in for a year or so. I get it on my face and I wanted to show you all what it's like.
