@LunaDragofelis@void.lgbt in my experience, laser has worked pretty well, but I'm almost perfect for it (white skin and dark hair).
If I recall correctly, there is a *chance* of the hair coming back from laser, but I don't think it's that big.
The other big factor is convenience.
If you're getting rid of *a lot* of hair, try laser first. Electrolysis will take so much longer, and hurt more for longer, too.

@HypnoDrooling@plush.city Do you think it would be a "best of both worlds" idea to do laser for the bulk and electro for the fine work? I have medium dark skin and black hairs (which makes the shadow after shaving especially bad, I think I wouldn't mind white/clear hairs under the skin nearly as much because they wouldn't be as visible). The laser machine at the studio does have a NdYag mode, which I've heard is better for darker skin, they state the model on the website and the manufacturer website of the machine says that model does have both NdYag and Alexandrite modes.
