Well It's the "in" thing right now and allot of laser clinics don't tell clients how the FDA regulate it!  
Plus Alternative Electrolysis is the only Electrologist in town and she's a one woman show, she doesn't advertise.  
With electrolysis they charge on a time based, a 10 minute treatment is the minimum length of time. Debbie recommends clients with facial hair do electrolysis because it's a smaller area and she finds that it's more effective to treat those hairs regularly for short periods of time. Its much less $ per treatment with electrolysis!  
Large areas like legs/bikini is better to do laser in the beginning and finish it off with electrolysis! Unknown to allot of people is that in Manitoba anyone can purchase a laser machine and provide services to clients. This means the person who does a laser treatment isn't legally required to have any official training.  
To do electrolysis you have to go to school, apprentice with a qualified person and maintain your licence through apprenticeship Manitoba just like an electrician or hairdresser!  
 

Just a question. I had to have 5-6 laser hair removal treatments before a surgery. They told me that laser acts on the pigment of the hair, thus, they couldn't do anything with the gray hairs. Is this true with all hair removal techniques?

Electrolysis is not selective so it doesn't matter if the hair has pigmentation or if it's grey/white! The hair can still be successfully removed.  
Call Alternative Electrolysis. She is busy but is happy to take time to discuss it over the phone and answer any questions that you may have!
