Why electrolysis

You've tried everything. It keeps coming back.

Shaving and waxing are temporary. Laser reduces hair but relies on pigment. Electrolysis is the only method the FDA allows to be called permanent hair removal.

How electrolysis works

A century-old method, done the modern way.

01

Precise, one follicle at a time

A probe finer than the hair itself slides into the natural follicle opening. A tiny burst of energy disables the growth cells at the root.

02

Timed to your growth cycle

Hair grows in cycles, so regular sessions catch every follicle while it's active. Most clients have regular visits for about 8 months, then book visits as hair grows in.

03

Gone for good

Once a follicle is treated, it can't grow back. No touch-ups, no maintenance forever.

The Bellwoods System

What most clients experience.

No two people grow hair the same way, so we won't promise you a finish date. What we can share is how treatment usually unfolds, and we adjust your plan with you as your hair responds.

  • A personalized plan built around your hair, skin and goals
  • Progress photos so you can see the change
  • A check-in every 8 weeks to adjust your plan
  • Save up to 25% with a prepaid package if you need a lot of treatment

Phases describe what most clients experience. Everyone's hair responds differently, so your timeline may be shorter or longer.

How treatment usually unfolds
Phase 1 · ClearWeeks 1 to 2

Longer visits to clear the whole area once. You won't see a difference in growth yet.

Phase 2 · ReduceUp to month 8

Regular visits to catch regrowth. By the end, hair grows back slower, finer and less dense.

Phase 3 · Live your lifeMonths 9 to 24

You're barely thinking about your hair, and book a visit as new hairs grow in.

Best hair removal experience I've ever had. Kelsey is extremely knowledgeable, friendly and a master of her craft. Saw incredible results from the very first treatment. Super safe and effective for darker skin tones. This has helped so much with dark spots and ingrowns as well. Highly recommend!

The story behind Bellwoods

I've been where you are.

For years I shaved, waxed and paid for laser, and the hair kept coming back. When I finally found electrolysis, it was the first thing that actually worked. It was also hard to find, hard to book and hard to understand.

So I trained, got certified and opened the studio I wish I'd had: private one-on-one rooms, online booking, honest timelines and a team that treats your results as our job too.

Before you book

The questions everyone asks.

Does it hurt?

Most people feel a quick sting or a little warmth. The upper lip is usually the most sensitive area, and the chin and body are easier. Numbing cream makes a big difference, and many clients relax or scroll their phone during a session.

How many sessions will I need?

It's different for everyone. Most clients have regular visits for about 8 months, then book visits as hair grows in, up to about two years. We'll talk through what's typical for your area at your first visit.

How much will it cost in total?

It depends on the area and how much hair there is. Sessions are $90 for 30 minutes or $150 for 60 minutes, plus HST, and clients who need a lot of treatment can save up to 25% with a prepaid package. Visits get shorter and further apart as you go, so most of the cost comes early.

How is it different from laser?

Laser targets pigment, so it struggles with light, grey, red and fine hair, and it reduces hair rather than removing it. Electrolysis treats each follicle directly, so it works on any hair colour and is permanent.

Is it safe for my skin tone?

Yes. Electrolysis doesn't rely on pigment, so it's suitable for every skin tone. Every probe is sterile and single-use.
