The Rural Retreat

Here at The Rural Retreat we offer the ONLY FORM of fda approved permanent hair removal.

Thinking about electrolysis and trying to understand how it actually works?

Here’s something most people don’t realize at first.

Not every hair follicle is active at the same time. Hair grows in cycles, and only a portion of follicles are producing visible hair at any given moment. Electrolysis works progressively by treating hairs as they appear in their active growth phase.

Hormones matter too. Conditions like PCOS, as well as perimenopause and menopause, can cause more follicles to become active and start producing hair that wasn’t visible before.

That’s why electrolysis is designed as a series of treatments, not a single session.

This reel breaks down the hair growth cycle and explains why permanent hair removal is a process — and a science.

Watch the reel to learn how it all fits together. If you have any questions - feel free to drop them in the comments - or DM me!
